I can record the right drum tracks for your music, any type of music but preferably rock, funk, hip-hop, r&b, fusion, progressive rock.
I normally provide 12 tracks per song, including 2 bass drum tracks (mic in and out), 2 snare tracks, hi-hit, 3 toms, 2 overheads and 2 room mics. I can add up to 16 tracks if you require an extra snare or more room mics.
I have 4 Tama drumkits of different wood and sizes, plus different Zildjian cymbals sets and various snare drums to be as versatile as possible.
My recording gear include:
Beyerdynamic TG D71, MCE 530, M160
CAD E100s
Akg C-414 ULS
Shure SM57
Akg 451 B
Sennheiser e604
Sennheiser MD 441
Audiotechnica AE 3000
Aston Origin
T.Bone RM 700
Audient ASP 880 Preamps
Focusrite Scarlet 18i20 Audio Interface
I normally provide the tracks already edited and ready for you to mount them on your session to be mixed or, if you require it, I can give you a drum premixed stereo track. An eventual second different take to the song is included in the service.
The price is to be considered per song but only after my approval once I have listened to the song you want me to record.
I work with pro-tools 10 so you can ask for the session if you're using the same DAW.
