A professional recording studio makes it possible to record, edit, mix, and master new compositions, as well as create audio tracks for movies, television, and advertising. Performing musicians can use the workshop as a rehearsal facility. The B–211 Steinway & Sons concert grand piano takes pride of place in the studio.

The video studio provides users with professional video cameras, equipment for creating special effects and conducting multi-camera live broadcasts, workstations with non-linear editing and colour correction systems. Visual artists can get advice and technical support for their projects here. In addition, users of the audio and video studio based at the workshop can conduct research, experiment, and develop new technical advances in sound and video.
