Drum Recording at Alchemy Studios - Drum Recording Room near me

Drum Recording

Big, powerful drums sounds are the cornerstone of most mixes (depending on the genre) We have all the tools - mics, preamps, drums, drum room and experience. With all this in place, it usually doesn't take to long to get professional results for your drum sounds. We can edit whole drum takes, insert new rolls and fills, trade/exchange parts, loop parts, replace sounds, in short - do whatever it takes to get the drum sounds you need.

Of course, there is no substitution for a good drummer playing well on a tuned and well mic'd kit, that is the starting point for every great recording!

The Studio Drums

The studio drum kit is a Gretch Catalina 6 pc. maple shells w/Zildgian and Sabian cymbols. We also have a Tama piccolo snare, and a Ludwig chrome snare. This is a great sounding versatile kit and is usually set up and tuned. Of course you are welcome to bring your own gear, and we always encourage you to bring your own pedals and cymbols, throne etc.
