Some of the tower on this floor contained the upper parts of sixth floor studios,
though there was still room for studios 7A, B, C, D and E (the latter being a gramophone
effects studio similar to 6E). The seventh and sixth floors housed the Productions Group
studios, used mainly for dramatic productions.

Control cubicles were provided on the seventh floor where musicians could
control programmes and hear them on loudspeakers without it being necessary
to sit at a control position in the main Control Room.
There were recording rooms containing Blattnerphone steel-tape recording
machines which connected with the Control Room so that any programme could
be recorded or playbacks could be fed to transmission or into any studio.
The BBC had already been experimenting with one of these machines at Avenue
House and Savoy Hill.
