HOLLYWOOD’S ULTIMATE SOUND WAREHOUSE EXPANDS AS LA PERCUSSION RENTALS & RECORDING LAUNCHES IN-HOUSE RECORDING STUDIO FOR MEDIA COMPOSERS. Abby Savell, Founder and CEO of LA Percussion Rentals joins Janeane on KUCI 88.9fm

 LAPR Opens Its Renowned Archives to Create a Live, Experimental Tracking Space for Film, TV, and Game Scoring

 

LOS ANGELES, CA — LA Percussion Rentals & Recording (LAPR), the premier source for elite instruments in the entertainment industry, has officially announced the launch of its new in-house recording studio services.

 

Designed specifically for film, television, video game, and professional media composers, LAPR is the first of its kind, a large-scale, percussion-focused service that delivers exploration and recording in one location. It offers a fully equipped, live tracking space that gives composers a greater array of services from solo player multi-tracking to intimate ensemble sessions, providing an agile, budget-friendly alternative to traditional Hollywood scoring stages.

 

"We wanted to remove the barriers between a composer's imagination and the final recording," says Abby Savell, Founder and CEO of LA Percussion Rentals. "Instead of staring at an empty room waiting for a truck to arrive, creators can walk directly onto our warehouse floor. It is a massive sonic playground!"

 

LAPR’s vast inventory of premier orchestral gear, rare world instruments, and the historic Emil Richards collection of legendary sound artifacts has been heard on iconic Hollywood soundtracks.

 

Most recently award-winning writer and composer Daniel Pemberton used LAPR resources in the summer blockbuster hit "Project Hail Mary” creating an other-worldly score with an eclectic variety of wooden instruments and some metals in key sequences.

 

LAPR In-House Recording Features include:

      Zero Cartage Fees: Complete elimination of instrument transport, trucking coordination, and packing logistics.

      The World's Instrument Depot: Instant access to thousands of pro symphonic percussion instruments, sound effects, and rare cultural instruments.

      Sonic Exploration: The unique freedom to audition, swap, and experiment with rare timbres live in the room, followed by a tracking session

      Professional Percussionists:

LAPRR staff are available to help composers logistically and creatively, helping with selection and suggesting ways to explore the instruments more deeply for sounds.
