Studio gear
All drum tracks are recorded in my purpose-built drum studio, which is acoustically treated. Coupled with top-of-the-line Universal Audio converters, preamps and microphones, you can be guaranteed a killer drum sound.
“As a mixing engineer, your recordings sound fabulous which makes my work so much easier.”
