Your drum recordings don’t sound as good as they should.
I’ll show you exactly how to record drums that sound clear, punchy, and professional—using what you already have.
Free Track & Template
Inside each template you'll find:
Mix Architecture — busses, sends, sidechain relationships, headphone mix setup
Gain Structure & Levels — how every channel is balanced and why
Panning & Stereo Image — mic blending, phase relationships, overhead placement
Plugins & Processing — every plugin, every setting, with and without comparisons
Listening & Isolation — solo any track, hear how the kit was tuned to the key of the song
Performance & Feel — how on-the-grid the performance was, and how the part was interpreted
Every track comes with the full LUNA session template it was created in. That means you're not just playing along to music — you're opening a real recording session and seeing exactly how it was built.

If you do not already have LUNA Recording System installed, you can download it for free from Universal Audio.
Please note: this session was created in LUNA Recording System, so you will need LUNA in order to open and access the included session template and tracks.
Compatibility may vary depending on your operating system, interface, drivers, plugins, and DAW configuration. Please back up important sessions and settings before installing or testing new software/templates. Audio files are included separately for users working in other DAWs.
