The Drum Recording Workshop at Minnehaha Recording Company is a welcoming and inclusive class designed for attendees of all backgrounds and experience levels. The workshop takes a software- and gear-agnostic approach—while demonstrations may take place in Pro Tools, the concepts are intended to translate to any DAW or recording setup. To make the session as valuable as possible, participants will be asked to share some information after signing up, allowing the class to be tailored to the group’s specific interests and challenges. No discounts allowed.
This class meets at Minnehaha Recording Company:4501 Minnehaha Ave, Minneapolis MN 55406.
Additional Info: The workshop focuses on the practical and creative aspects of recording drums, including drum tuning, drum types and materials, microphone selection and placement, processing and mixing approaches, and techniques for achieving different drum sounds. Special attention will be given to recording drums in non-ideal spaces and on a budget. Attendees are encouraged to bring in their own tracks or drum recordings to discuss workflows, troubleshoot issues, and refine approaches. The goal is to keep the experience intimate, interactive, and collaborative, with real-world examples and open discussion throughout. Attendees do not have to have any specific background or experience. We may be demonstrating things in Pro Tools, but this is meant to be software (and gear) agnostic. We are not teaching a specific software at this time. We intend for this to be as beneficial to attendees as possible. Because of this, we’ll gather some info about you once you’ve signed up. Once we have this info from all participants, we can decide what might be best to focus on as class. Attendees will have the option to bring in a track of their own music or something they might have recorded elsewhere to talk through the process and any challenges they may be having with it. Our goal is to keep this intimate, interactive, and collaborative.
We want to discuss and refine things like:
