Broadcasting from London · Opening Q3 2026
Three rooms. One network. Broadcast-grade audio and 4K multi-cam for the shows that can’t afford to sound like everyone else’s.

Take control
of the room
before it takes you.

The room your show is recorded in is the first thing your audience hears. CTRL is a network of three premium podcast studios across London — built, tuned and engineered so the only thing standing between you and a great show is what you have to say.
