Making Studio Gear Since 2017

Here at DrAlienSmith, we make studio gear that's easy to use and helps make the recording or performance process fun and creative. From our dual capsule figure 8 kick mic, the Alien8, all the way through to our phantom powered microphone level distortion effect, the DirtBox, we strive to do things differently. No clones here!

All our gear is designed and assembled in the Perth Hills, Australia and we ship worldwide from our webstore here using DHL Express. We also have selected retailers for DrAlienSmith located in Australia, the UK, Europe, New Zealand and Japan.
