Live Percussion
Live drums and percussion can bring life to a recording.
A high end 6 piece kit is on site. This kit employs professional hardware with splittable
tom mounts thus allowing it to be changed quickly. What ever your musical style dictates!
Some of the kit highlights are: Double or single kick pedal, Zildjian Rock hi-hat cymbals.
The drum sizes are as follows: 14x7 wood snare, 10x9 Tom1,
12x10 Tom2, 14x12 Tom3/Floor1, 16x14 Floor2 and a 22x15 Kick.
Additional Percussion: 12x4 piccolo snare drum, 10 x 6 snare drum, Caribbean rain stick,
Nigerian wood block, Rhythm Tech Tambourine, LP 7”/9” Bongos with stand and various shakers.
The onsite kit saves setup time, and because it is tuned for recording, will not compromise sound quality.
If desired, we can even record all or part of your drum kit.

Ambient Isolation
Room
Separate from the main studio is an isolation room
with a very nice natural reverb.
This room can also be dampened with our portable studio foam panels.
Thus, it can be made completely dead, completely ambient or something in between.
The room is often used for mic'ing up guitar and bass amps with both close and room mic arrangements.
Other instruments such as acoustic guitar, wind instruments, light percussion, etc can also benefit
from being recorded in this room.
