Announcing Studio One 2

Studio One™ 2 is here with over 100 enhancements
This is a MAJOR upgrade that will delight current Studio One users and win new converts, too. Check it out!

Built-in Melodyne pitch correction

Celemony’s Melodyne is the most sought-after pitch-correction solution in the market. Studio One Professional 2 seamlessly integrates Melodyne so tightly that, for practical purposes, it’s simply a part of Studio One.

Transient Detection, Editing, and Groove Extraction

Sure, you can do transient detection and editing in other DAWs—but it’s slow, and complicated. In Studio One 2, you quantize multitrack drums in two steps: group the tracks, then quantize!

Multitrack Comping Done Right

Single and multitrack comping is quick and easy in Studio One 2 — and faster than with other DAWs!

Enhanced Mastering with Studio One 2 Professional

No other DAW offers a truly integrated mastering suite comparable to the Project page in Studio One 2 Professional.

The legendary Neal Schon form Journey is using Blackstar S1-100 heads and cabs. We met Neal at a UK festival 2 years ago and he loved the Series One.

Neal comments; “the Blackstar Series One 100 is one of the best sounding amps that I’ve played through. It produces a powerful punchy-smooth-warm and precise sound. Great dependable amp.”

SABIAN Cymbals

About SABIAN Cymbals

SABIAN is all about designing and creating cymbals and sounds that are right for you.

Known as the ‘modern, innovative cymbal maker with traditional roots,’ we combine expertise and craftsmanship with creative vision, to design award-winning cymbals that make SABIAN the choice of such leading drummers as Chad Smith, Jack DeJohnette, Mike Portnoy, Dave Weckl, and Neil Peart, as well as percussion greats Evelyn Glennie DBE, Bob Becker, Ney Rosauro, Li Biao, Dennis DeLucia and Ralph Peterson, among many others around the world. Check out our Artist section for these, and more, great artists that choose SABIAN to create their sound.  They - like you - can choose their cymbals from the comprehensive range of unique and personal sounds offered by SABIAN.

SABIAN was founded in late 1981, when one of the world’s great names in cymbal making, Bob ‘Sabian’ decided drummers deserve better cymbals. Not happy with the quality, sound and relevance of cymbals made at that time, he launched SABIAN. Located in the small eastern Canadian village of Meductic, New Brunswick, SABIAN - most notably The Vault, where cymbals are designed - has since become the global center for cymbal and sound innovation. Our ongoing program of discovery and design means today’s drummers and percussionist have a larger-than-ever selection of interesting and innovative cymbals to choose from, with models ranging from vintage to modern, from highly personalized to whatever you need.

SABIAN is a ‘team’… a ‘family’, with many members – a growing number with over 20+ years experience - absolute masters of their craft. Even the ‘SABIAN’ name is family, comprised of the first two letters from the names of each of Bob’s three children - SA (Sally), BI (Billy), AN (Andy). Today, Andy is the president of SABIAN, with Bob serving as chairman. And those rings appearing in the SABIAN logo? They represent the grooves cut into the surface of a cymbal.

Because sounds matters you will not only discover a wide range of cymbals and percussion pieces on this site (yes, you can hear their sounds as well), you will recognize that SABIAN innovation is all about creating new sounds that matter. Listen to the Artisan Ride and discover dark, tonal complexity. Or crash a multi-holed O-Zone for a combination crash/chinese response. The X-treme Crash produces raw glassiness, while the X-Plosion Crash delivers with power. And there are hundreds of other models, both traditional and innovative, producing vintage and modern sounds for every style of drummer and percussionist.

Today, with offices and depots dotted around the globe and distribution to approximately 120 countries, SABIAN is what Bob ‘Sabian’ and his family intended. But for us that is just the start. Ask why SABIAN exists, the answer is easier than ever: ‘Because Sound Matters.’

Mapex Drums

About Mapex Drums

One man turned to another, shook his head in amazement and said, “You know, I just never expected to see so much detailed, handcrafted work.”

This nearly unanimous sentiment was expressed repeatedly among a select group of Mapex retailers upon a recent visit to the Mapex manufacturing facilities in Tianjin, China. They discovered for themselves that Mapex drums are actually handcrafted by hundreds of dedicated employees who skillfully apply their talent and expertise to their craft.

All Mapex products are hand built and hand assembled by the artisans at its wholly owned factory. The people at Mapex have earned a distinguished reputation for designing, engineering and building the highest quality acoustic drums. In fact, Mapex is one of the only companies of its kind to have earned ISO9001 certification – the world’s standard for manufacturing excellence.

Building the highest quality product initially depends on the expertise of those that select the raw materials – in particular, the wood. This is why the Mapex Professional Wood Grading Team selects only the finest raw materials to build its drums. Premium grade hardwoods like maple, walnut, birch and basswood are hand-selected from worldwide sources and are then matched by skilled experts to ensure that every drum Mapex produces carries with it the signature tonal and resonant properties that define the distinctive Mapex sound.

Mapex not only wants you to sound your best, you need to look great too. On all of its painted drums, Mapex finish experts hand apply an eight-coat, hand-rubbed, high-gloss lacquer to each shell. Mapex finishes are durable, easy to maintain and will help make you the envy of your drumming community.

The employees at Mapex apply the same high standard of quality across the entire family of products. Every Mapex drum, regardless of price, is built to exacting specifications. Mapex has created a working environment that encourages growth, spirit and dedication to craftsmanship. The people that make Mapex drums are the best at what they do and they take pride in their ability to do it.

The result is a drum that you take on stage or into the studio with complete confidence that your style and creativity will be not only perfectly reproduced, but enhanced. With your Mapex drum set, your talents and personality will be faithfully delivered to your audience, whether you’re playing to a crowd of twenty or twenty-thousand. You’ll ultimately take as much pride in owning a Mapex drum as the expert builders did when it was made.
