Recording cymbal samples for loops de la crème
Oct 20, 2011
I’ve always been a fan of cymbals. Over the years, I’ve built a collection of rare, hand-made cymbals, some over 40 years old.
I decided to start a new series of sample packs, the silver&gold series, each featuring edited recordings of a particular cymbal.
All cymbals samples were recorded at 4tune studios. I used an XY pair of cardioid shoeps as well as an omni DPA. I collected a few hours of quality recordings, using various sticks, mallets and brushes, and a myriad of playing technics on all cymbals.
Stay tuned for the upcoming release of the first cymbal pack, CYMBAL ESSENTIALS.
