LET’S TALK ENGINEERING FOR A WHILE, SHALL WE?
“When a professional audio engineer is building that awesome tone in the studio, he is often running it through some heavy lifting. Blending several drum samples with massive filtering, heavy compression, equalization, saturation or even some multiband processing and maybe some other crazy stuff.
And it is no secret that the top engineers often run the signal through their chains twice or three times in series until both the engineer and the artist are 100% satisfied with the result. So there is a lot of stuff to do when building a perfect drum tone.
There are very few products tailored for the drums post-processing, but most today’s engineers use very similar workflow. “
STANDARD DRUMS PROCESSING RIGS
Mostly it’s not enough to run the drum tracks through a basic channel strip or to just use some fancy drum samples to get the standards we are hearing on today’s records.
