Our drum & percussion tracks are customized to fit your songs, jingles, demos or whatever other track you submit to us.

 

        Thus, they are made to suit your needs to the best possible way.  All of them are " physically " played, but we can   deliver programmed tracks as well.   Complete rythm arrangement are possible.

 

       We can provide them from basic to most elaborate renderings, each with a slight difference in cost.

 

       A basic track might be a complete stereo audio track synchronized to the rough track we received whereas the elaborate one could be a set of spliced editable files of each individual sound you could use as you wish.

 

       Audio track can be delivered rough, with different effects and mixes, and different drum/perc sounds.

 

       Midi files can be delivered to enable you to use your own sounds and samples.

 

       The recording checklist page will allow you to fill all criterias you wish to be taken into consideration when you submit drum/perc track. From then on, many options will be available to you, ie : from recording settings to payments                    possibilities.

 

       You need to provide us with the best  mp3/wav/aiff/ape quality reference track possible and all needed tech infos such as sample rate, bit depth, BPM, time variations, chord / chart structure, time limit for finalized project, etc.

 

       If possible, have a clic track recorded in the first 2 bars, separately from the reference track but in sync with it !!

 

       For individual and / or mixed files, please make sure that they start at bar 1.1.1.

 

       In following example, you see 2 audio files :

 

       -        audio 1 with 2 parts ( bar 3 to 7 & 11 to 14 )

       -        audio 2 with 1 part ( bar 2 to 10 ).

 

       When a mix down of the file is to be made, it will be from bar 1.1.1 to bar 15.1.1. The blank at the start will allow to have all files start at bar 1.1.1, even the individual files.

       

 

 

       

 

Track exchange, from beginning to end, will preferrably be made thru our web site, via ftp, with personal password access to your private folder.


   In most cases, the use of the Digital Musician Recorder or the DML plug in for Cubase, Logic & Pro tools is preferred.   More infos at  www.digitalmusician.net.

 

 

       Bear in mind that song complexity, tracking quality, performance type, in-house editing/mixing will have an impact upon        the time it takes before delivery.  Nevertheless, consider few days to 1-2 weeks as average delivery time.

       

       Rates will be fixed between parties with the consideration of the above elements.

 

       Therefore, they will be charged on a personal basis.

 

       At any time prior or during the tracking process, we can arrange for conference meeting and/or eventually phone calls.

 

       After tracking is completed, you will receive a rough mix for reference. You will be allowed 2 possibilities for changes at   no cost before final rendering of the tracks. A small fee might be charged for subsequent changes, depending on the work involved.

 

       Once the tracking is rendered to your liking, different delivery options will be available : download from our ftp site,                transfert via internet delivery company ( such as Yousendit ), email, upon CD, shipping with UPS, ...

 

       We aim to give you the utmost satisfaction and quality with our production.  We  are opened to suggestions, feedback and        criticism.  The track, the song and you are the most important factor in the tracking process.

 

 

       IMPORTANT INFORMATION
