Advanced Drum Production TUTORiAL

3 Days Course + Bonus | MP4 | 17.1 GB

Recording drums that sound both hyper-polished and authentic has always been something of a black art — one that isn’t taught at any school, one that you could only learn from one of the few elite engineers scattered across the planet. Until now. In this three-day class, you’ll learn the real-world production techniques that producer Eyal Levi uses every day at Audiohammer Studios — on albums for bands like The Black Dahlia Murder, August Burns Red, Chelsea Grin, and Whitechapel. Eyal will show how to select the right drums for the sound you want, tune and set them up, and mic the kit. Oh, and did we mention that the legendary Sean Reinert (Cynic, Death) is the in-studio drummer?!

This installment of Foundations of Audio explains one of the most essential ingredients in audio mixing, reverb—the time it takes for sound to bounce, echo, and decay during a live performance or recording. Reverb gives a natural richness to your recordings, which is possible to reproduce. Producer and audio engineer Alex U. Case covers the acoustic, mechanical, and digital means for creating reverb, and charts the parameters (room size, density, etc.) you’ll need to know to take advantage of the original recording space and enhance it in post.
