Mike Knight has been into music since he was a boy growing up in the UK. A lover of all kinds of music, he is also an accomplished bass player and sound engineer for local music events in Haliburton County, under the name Makk Sound. Now, Knight has realized another dream through the creation of his own recording space called Apple Tree Studio.Named after a beautiful apple tree that grows in his yard, Mike Knight planned and designed the entire studio's set-up, from the ground up, and included state-of-the-art features that guarantee the best sound recording quality possible. It took him 20 months to build the studio that had a soft opening in December of last year. That attention to detail is something Knight is justifiably proud of since he knows the little things do actually matter in a studio.Knight sat down with CanoeFM recently in his new studio to explain how it was built and why he was so passionate about creating it literally from the ground up.
