 A brand-new Traps drum kit (with extra hardware to support a third cymbal) now graces Studio 4. And speaking of cymbals, we'll have a slew of shiny new Zildjians in shortly. We've done some keyboard maintainance, fixing a balky pitch wheel on our Alesis QS8 and killing a buzz in our Korg SG1-D). Before the end of the month we'll "tune" studios 3 and 4 with an array of products from Auralex. This week and next we'll be deploying fresh Evans Drumheads, and lots of cool accessories from Planet Waves. And maybe, if you've been good little boys and girls, you'll have some new amps to play with before the new year.
