Anyone want to reprogramme the drums on this?

butterfly · 21st September 2008, 02:32 PM

.............wrote and mixed this a couple of years ago and was never reall happy with the drums, I think the song is decent as are all the other sounds but when we mixed it engineer locked all the drums to the grid and it's lacking a swing plus the snare sounds like ass.............thinking about presenting it as a demo along with some others stuff but as my main thing is writing I'm sure there is someone out there that could do a better job with the drums anyone want to give it a try will pay of course

I will be more than happy to do it. If you upload the session I can do it tonight- either using your original samples or incorporating other sounds. How does $50 sound? If you are curious about my drum programming skills I uploaded a few snippets under the fantomg/virus thread from a day or two ago.

.........Yip ok link is working. Ok it's a poppy R and b track with a female vocal and a 16 bar rap. As I said I think the drums could be improved, snare sounds a bit cardboard and I don't think they are punchy or urgent enough sounding. I think the way we might have programmed the snare pushing a little early on the 2 but as I said the engineer who was mixing it ended up moving it right onto the grid can't remember why I didn't perist on getting him to to loosen it back up.....but I didn't! Anyway if anyone has any ideas, or crits comments....all are welcome, cheers guys.

Hey man just heard the track... the drum programming is ok but I see what you mean it could be regrooved and a little tighter.

If you want I can either fix what you got or I can re-do the drums completely and make the track sound much hotter. Either way let me know what the deal is I am free tonight so if you get me either the entire session if you happen to use logic or all the audio files consolidated. Either way I can get it done so hit me up.
