🎙️ Authentic Recordings:
Performed by a seasoned jazz drummer on a vintage Leedy & Ludwig 1953 Broadway Model snare, Ludwig Jazz-ette bass drum, and legendary Istanbul & Zildjian cymbals. Every hit was captured using classic studio gear: Neumann U47 tube mics, RCA DX & Altec microphones, API preamps, and Pultec EQs—ensuring a warm, rich tone straight from the era of Blue Note and Impulse! records.
