Interview with Ty Steele Music & Media

Q: Is there anyone on SoundBetter you know and would recommend to your clients?
A: Lorenzo Price
Q: Analog or digital and why?
A: No analog. Why? What's the point?
Q: What's your 'promise' to your clients?
A: Quick turn around. I do what I say I will do. I will do everything possible to provide a service better than you asked for.
Q: What do you like most about your job?
A: Everything
Q: What questions do customers most commonly ask you? What's your answer?
A: How much do you charge! I like to look at each song as a gig. Each song takes about as much time and is about as much work as a full gig. But I'm open, depending upon the number of songs and their complexity. It's all about my time value.
Q: What questions do you ask prospective clients?
A: Who or what band do you want the drums to sound like? What is your turn around requirement? Do you have a full-length album or is this a single? Will this be strictly online or physical CD once produced?
Q: What was your career path? How long have you been doing this?
A: I have been at this for five years. Music is my career. I am a producer, engineer, drummer, band manager and multi-instrumentalist.
Q: How would you describe your style?
A: Deep sound, pocket-oriented, technical and tight snare
Q: Which artist would you like to work with and why?
A: I've already worked with Adam Nitti, which was one of my life goals. Next, Alex Argento (Italy).
Q: Can you share one music production tip?
A: I'll leave that to the article writers
Q: What type of music do you usually work on?
A: Jazz, rock, metal, fusion
Q: What's your strongest skill?
A: Quick turn around, reliable BPM time keeping, clear and solid snare, kick, toms and smooth cymbals in the mix.
Q: What do you bring to a song?
A: My drum tracks are clean. I do not provide unedited drum tracks. Once you have them, and we agree in writing, then you own them. I have no claim to them, nor do I expect any album credits.
Q: What's your typical work process?
A: Depending upon complexity of the part, the turnaround can be *same day* or up to a week. I expect full communication with any music partner I'm working with. I extend a great deal of grace to clients. You send me your BPM, a play along mp3, your expectations and perhaps a concept MIDI drum track, I will send you a quick response and your tracks exactly as you asked in 44.1 / 24bit WAV (or your specification).
Q: Tell us about your studio setup.
A: Besides live sound equipment, I have for my studio recording gear: Microphones: Shure Beta 91A Shure Beta 52 Shure SM57 Audix i5 Rode NTG1 AKG Perception 170 CAD M179 Sennheiser MD421 Preamps/Mixer is a Presonus RM16AI I record using LogicX I have three drum sets for various music styles and an electric kit
Q: What other musicians or music production professionals inspire you?
A: I am inspired by anyone who can drive me to be more than I am.
Q: Describe the most common type of work you do for your clients.
A: Drum tracks for various music styles (blues, country, jazz, pop, rock, fusion, latin)
