Handcrafted studio-grade acoustic drum tracks
My acoustic drum track package consists of up to 15 channels of studio-quality audio delivered in an unprocessed format so that you have maximum control when it comes to mixing.
I have a vast array of drums and cymbals to suit various genres, and it's all captured through Universal Audio and Audient hardware to achieve that studio-quality sound. My mic cabinet is fully loaded and ready to go, including Coles 4038 ribbons right through to a selection of large and small diaphragm condensers.
Meticulous attention is given to each microphone placement, ensuring there are no phase problems.
FAQs
-
Do I get to listen to my drum tracks before paying?
Yes, absolutely! Once I have recorded your drum track, you will receive a private link to listen to your drum tracks. Payment is not required until I send you the high-quality stems.
-
Is your unlimited revisions policy really unlimited?
Yes! To me, it doesn't make sense to force only 1 or 2 adjustments on a project. Nobody wins if you are left with drum tracks that aren't exactly perfect or you feel unable to ask for exactly what you want.
-
What if I'm not happy?
If, in the unfortunate event, you're not happy, you pay nothing! Payment is only required before I send you the high-quality stems.
-
How do I pay, and what currencies do you accept?
When you're completely happy with your drum tracks, I will send you an invoice where you can make payment. Payments are handled by Stripe for maximum security. Stripe can process 135+ currencies.
You can pay with:
