Drums can also be recorded using an in-house electronic kit, or through one of our partner studios for those using an acoustic kit.

The studio is equipped with an impressive list of music production equipment including WARM and ART Tube preamps as well as microphones from BLUE, Sennheiser, Audio-Technica, and more. Mixing equipment includes WARM Audio outboard gear as well as ProTools and Logic, and UAD, FabFilter, and Waves plugins.
