One of my drummer friends and occasional bandmate, Steinar Krokstad, does the same thing sometimes, detunes one or two of the crews on the toms. Good tip, thanks!
Thanks Jord. I will have a look at that Elliot Scheiner one you mention, as he’s engineered so many great albums. And you’re right, you really can’t recreate what those guys, as well as any other great one might care to mention, I can only use it as a starting point.
Thanks! I know, he DOES use brushes quite a lot, but I’m more interested in how to get close to that marvellous thump he gets from his toms on, say, Aja. That’s the thing that both Gadd and Porcaro excel at, that deep thump that doesn’t slam too much. Sorry, English is not my first language, I may be explaining it poorly.
