HOW TO get That Neo Soul Drum Sound | HIP HOP Drum Sound
Музыка
In this Vid I invite my drummer friend June Medina to help me transform the sound of my 70's Ludwig Drums to create a killer hiphop/QuestLuv drum sound. Choosing the right mics and placement I was able to capture the sound i was looking for right at the source without the use of any eq or compression!
I find it very important to change the instrument if you want to change the sound before reaching for an eq or compression. Capture the sound you want to hear at the source.
June played a killer groove to this Neo Soul progression I created and the results speak for themselves. Take a listen!

Wow that drummer. Insane timing and feel.
Magnificent sounds.
Nice sound and very tight playing, wow!
beautiful sound, man. thank you
Damn! Feeling the vibe! 💯
That set looks so comfortable to play on
I love how the last hi hat note before the snare hit drags just a little. Very hip.
I better stop a never ending searching on the Internet and bookmark this video asap. Thanks for sharing it
I would pay money for one shots of this. Sounds amazing, have a hard time finding live drum samples that sound like this.

I will look back at session to see if we did any single hits or if it’s possible to extract from performance. 👍

great sound but only because of how great a drummer this guy is
Thats a whole lotta pocket
How do you get this amazing snare sound? I know tuning it quite high and all, but still haven't managed to get this sound...
what about the snare? what is it?.. gear? thank you
I guess it's kinda too late now but I would have really appreciated if you could have recorded different one shots for each hihat, crash, snare, kick, etc. I would even pay for it, cause It's so incredibly hard to find isolated drum sounds that fit my personal taste and this perfectly nailed it. Best thing would be to learn the drums myself, but I can barely afford anything atm, let alone a drumkit^^

The snare head is about 12 years old and hasnt been changed so imsure that is also part of the sound. WeTune it up pretty tight and then we drove the preamp a bit hard so it broke up a bit in just the right way. You just have to be careful and not overcook it going into your converter/Tape. Ive also used an Overstayer VCA Comp to sprinkle in a bit of character at times.
