A Word From Eyal Levi –

This Fast Track covers what in my opinion is one of the most difficult, if not THE most difficult type of production: Extreme Metal Drum Production. This is an incredibly detail oriented method of producing and mixing drums. While I do believe that someone unfamiliar with the genre can get a lot out of this Fast Track, there are some URM resources that I would suggest you either start with, or take in parallel in order to maximize your results. This is the genre that I cut my teeth in. I know the material in here intimately and these supplemental learning suggestions are what I personally believe will help you understand the big picture on creating amazing sounding drums, within the Extreme Metal genre. This Fast Track will show you how to deal with what's actually being recorded, as well as how to approach the session in advance, and also what to do once the drums are tracked, however if you take it in conjunction with the following you will really go all the way.
