THE GEAR
The studio is Pro Tools and Calkewalk Sonar
equipped. Microphones are industry standard and supplied
by Shure and AKG. This setup is wired into a Yamaha mixing
console with high quality preamps. This is paired up with
an M Audio soundcard with high quality AD converters. This
is recorded onto hard disk at 24bit/48kz quality.
THE SOURCE SOUND
Great recording equipment counts for nothing
if you don't have an amazing source sound to begin with.
To achieve this all live drum tracks are recorded on a perfectly
tuned *Mapex Saturn series kit. For drum techno nuts this
means that these drums have an incredibly thin shell which
consists of 4 plies of top quality Maple and 2 plies of Walnut.
The result is a rich, resonant sound which delivers a full
controlled bottom end. We also use all maple shell
drums for a different desired timbre and tone. The high end
snare drums used are interchangeable depending on the clients
needs for their tracks. The drums are complimented by
a huge arsenal of high end Sabian cymbals. From bright
rockier crashes to darker jazz sounds, to cool splashes and
effects cymbals. We have them all! The cymbals for each session
are chosen to suit the style of music. We also have
various African and Latin percussion which can be utilized.
Ther studio also uses a Roland TH12KX electronic
drum kit for specific drum timbre requirements from big stadium
drum sound to electro synthetic drums. The choice is yours.
TRACK CHOICE
All acoustic drum kit recorded tracks are
recorded flat with no EQ or effects. This means that
you can tweak raw and unmixed tracks to your exact requirements
on your final mix. Or if you prefer, you can request
a stereo mix with reverbs. This final mix is treated
dependent on the style of music.
TRACK FORMATS
We can supply OMF or .wav files that can be imported into
any DAW recording software systems such as Pro Tools, Cubase,
Sonar or Logic Audio.

Please note: When submitting your initial query to include
the following information:
1. A general description of the project
2. A general timeframe for getting the project started and
completed
3. All of your contact information
4. Let us know if you require your finished tracks to be raw
and unmixed, or a complete stereo drum mix. If you're unsure
then this will be discussed and finalized before Georg starts
your project.
STEP 4:
1. On reviewing your query, Georg will ask you to send a
demo (in whatever form) of the song/s or music. Note that
all tracks for the entire project must be sent.
2. Georg will assess the entire project and send you a quotation.
There is no standard rate as the project fee is dependent
on the amount of pre-preproduction required and how much work
will be required to arrive at the finished recorded track/s.
A delivery date for these final tracks will also be agreed.
3. If you agree to the terms and fee then a session booking
form will be sent to you. This will need to be completed,
signed and returned together with a 20% deposit of the total
project fee. Note that if after acceptance you make any major
changes to the project which may affect the time and recording
process of the project, then an additional charge may be applied
and need to be paid before Georg continues with your project.
Therefore, try to be as clear and precise as you can on what
you want from your finished drum tracks.
4. Georg will start your project and send you MP3's of the
recorded tracks as they are completed. If any tweaking is
required on the tracks then you will need to let Georg know
what you require. When these tracks have been redone they
will be sent to you. When you are totally happy with your
drum tracks you will need to sign off the project. You will
then need to pay for the project in full. On receiving your
final and full settlement your master quality tracks will
be sent to you - depending on the size of your project this
may be via email or courier.
Thats it!
