  • New Song - Drumatic Duo
My newest song project with Poly.
It started out as an experiment having real acoustic drums for the first half and switching to digital drums for the back half, so listen close for the switch!
 
The song is titled "Drumatic Duo" for both the half acoustic half digital  drums aspect, and that it's Poly and I making all this noise.

Nice track Glenn, very melodic and plenty of changes to keep up the interest

Thanks James. 
 
Initially it was a test to see how close I could match up the sound of my acoustic drums with Superior Drummer and V-Drums. I recorded the acoustic drums to a click, and then jumped right on the V-Drums and recorded that track. 
 
I wanted to have recordings that were played with the same force and feel but on two different drum kits so I could try to get them sounding alike.  After playing around with it, and getting the switch of drums to be pretty subtle, I started adding other parts and it morphed into this song.

I thought it was really good Glen. Nice one all around.

Thanks David.  I just started using acoustic drums again after close to thirty years of using digital drums exclusively for recording. Thought it would be fun to hear both playing back to back, and maybe get me to improve both by hearing the differences.

Thanks Markus.  Playing is what it's all about for me. Recording is just another reason to play, and I get to switch instruments when recording.

Thanks Bill.  I'm getting both the acoustic and digital drums more dialed in from this musical experiment. I've already found a snare in Superior that I think sounds closer to my real acoustic snare, and have made several tweaks on the acoustic drums setup based on some differences I noticed by having both in this project.
