HistoryThe studios were founded by brothers Kingsley and Charles Ward[2] in 1963, by converting an existing farmhouse.[1] In 1965, they became the world's first residential studio, set up so that bands could come and stay in the peaceful rural surroundings to record. They have two studios, the Coach House and the Quadrangle, which are both set up for digital and analogue recordings.{{citation needed|date=December 2017}} The first big hit recorded in the studios was Dave Edmunds' "I Hear You Knocking" in 1970. Following that success, the studios were used in the early 1970s to record seven albums by Budgie, several by Hawkwind, one by Hobo, Peter Hammill's second solo album Chameleon in the Shadow of the Night in 1973, Ace's hit single "How Long" in 1974, and Queen's album Sheer Heart Attack. Queen worked on developing their album "A Night at the Opera" along with "Bohemian Rhapsody" for a month at Ridge Farm Studio during the summer of 1975.,[2] and in August 1975, Queen returned to Rockfield to begin recording the album A Night at the Opera, including "Bohemian Rhapsody".[3] Motörhead made their first recordings at the studios in 1975 and were, briefly, signed to the Rockfield record label.[1] Cyril Jordan of the Flamin' Groovies (who recorded at Rockfield several times between 1972 and 1978) said in 2014, "We thought Rockfield was the new Sun recording studios.”[4] During a 12-month period in 1996-97, Rockfield sessions resulted in five UK Number One albums, by Oasis, Black Grape, The Charlatans and the Boo Radleys.{{citation needed|date=December 2017}} Charles Ward has stood aside and Rockfield Studio is now owned by Dave Edmunds. Charles Ward was more involved with the music. The Coach House StudioThe Coach House studio was constructed in 1968 and is based around vintage microphone amp and equalisers. The main recording console is a NEVE 8128 inline desk with outboard including Neve 1060 microphone amps, Rosser microphone amps, API 550 equalisers and Urei 1176 compressors.{{citation needed|date=December 2017}} This live area was designed for band recordings with an emphasis on separation and natural acoustics. It consists of the live recording area with a Yamaha grand piano, one stone drum room, an acoustically variable second drum room and two isolation booths.{{citation needed|date=December 2017}} Artists who have recorded in the Coach House include Oasis, Bullet for My Valentine, Sepultura, Jayce Lewis, Simple Minds and Opeth.{{citation needed|date=December 2017}} The Quadrangle Studio{{Quote box| width=30% | align=right | quote=Rockfield (Studios) was an absolute dream because it was pastoral, funny and had a fantastic musical history ... I moved here and became one of these dismal, happy, sad, failed musicians that other people cross the street to avoid ... I really enjoyed my being in this Rockfield environment. I had lived in this goldfish bowl in Led Zeppelin. | source=Robert Plant[2] }} The Quadrangle studio was constructed in 1973 and is most famous for the recording of Queen's "Bohemian Rhapsody". The main recording console is a MCI 500 series inline desk with outboard including Neve 1061 microphone amps, Rosser microphone amps, API 550 equalisers and Urei 1176 compressors.{{citation needed|date=December 2017}} This live area of the quadrangle studio was designed to record live bands. This consists of the live recording area with its Bösendorfer grand piano, two large variable acoustic drum rooms and three isolation booths along with its 6m x 7m central control room.{{citation needed|date=December 2017}} Artists who have recorded in the Quadrangle include the Manic Street Preachers, Robert Plant, and Coldplay.{{citation needed|date=December 2017}} Artist roster1960s{{div col|colwidth=16em}}
