Unlocking the Drum Programming Flywheel
How would it impact your music if you could make incredible,Β cohesive and excitingΒ drums?
Not only would you be able to make high-quality drums…Β
…but you could do it fast. π
You open your DAW one evening and you scroll through your curated sample library, allowing you to effortlessly sketch out drum patterns that instantly hit the right spot in your mix.
Rhythm is no longer a roadblock – you know different grooves, patterns and techniques you can use to make your drums feel EXACTLY how you want them to.
What’s even better is that you’re not just copying someone else – you have a way that enables you to make any sort of drum pattern, allowing you to find your unique sound.
You understand perfectly how to harness tools such as:
EQ | Compression | Tuning | Reverb | Satuartion| Layering | Bussing | Sends
…in order to sculpt your drum mix.
Once you’ve done your drums, you couldΒ quickly move on to other aspects of your music.Β You’ll be able to focus on writing killer melodies and emotion-laden chord progressions that fitΒ right intoΒ those drums.
Best of all, it doesn’t take you days, weeks or months. In fact, you can get most of your drums done in one session!
Having a drum programming methodology can help you achieve exactly this. No more playing around in the dark – you have something solid to rely on.
