Recording of a Rondalla Group

One of our interesting and challenging sessions last month was the recording of a 13 member rondalla group - the Drugmakers Rondalla Group. It was a logistical and physical challenge to fit 13 persons with their musical instruments in the relatively limited space of our tracking room - even including using the B room as an isolation room. Fact is the complete rondalla is comprised of 24 members!

The Drugmakers Rondalla is comprised of amateur/hobbyist musicians - all of them are also employees of the company. We were told that their company president loves music and in fact the company has a chorale group and a brass marchingband, too. What a cool company to work in huh?
