Studio Erdo: Part 4 - Drum tracking clips [HD 720p]

www.erdo.se - visit for more news, music blog and gallery.

This is part 4 of a series of videos that I am releasing as my album draws closer to the finish line. You should subscribe if you are interested in music, recording, mixing, tracking or anything that has to do with this. This part contains some footage of the drum tracking, just short bits and pieces to give you an idea of what it's like while I'm tracking drums.

Quick info about me: I'm just a guy who is trying to achieve a personal goal which is to single-handedly write and produce a full-length album. All instruments are played by me.

I will try to answer any questions in the comments so just ask away if you wonder about something I forgot to mention in the videos.

Thanks to Andy Sneap for hosting a great forum over at the ultimatemetal.com forums.

[himynameisbrendo]

so um...where's the energy?

[StudioErdo]

@himynameisbrendo ?

[mattoffthewall]

These drums sound amazing! what mics did you use??

[StudioErdo]

@mattoffthewall A swedish china produced low budget brand called JJLabs. Nothing special.

[XOMGSkyrimX]

@himynameisbrendo Its a studio recording.... no point

[ZeroG84]

This has that swedish high compression cold metal tone... am I right? the cymbals could use a little boost in the mix to make them stand out more.

[mani1147]

Sounds great man, very cool setup.

[Peter2Kicks]

Wow man that's a really nice sound! I'm diggin' the samples too. I found with really cheap over heads if you have nice enough cymbals and good placement they can sound rad so you're on the money there! nice to see someone who knows what they're doing!

[Nickeoso]

@StudioErdo wow bud thanks so much for the tip on the aidop codec, worked so good, almost cant notice the quality deteriorate, check it out for youself (in video response)

[Nickeoso]

@Nickeoso thanks for the response man, im going to have to try that format, goodluck to you finishing your album man
