We got the following question from our coaching students:
“How do you identify (drum) time signatures and note values? I want to get better and faster at figuring this out mainly for drum editing and adjusting my grid. Sometimes it takes me a while to identify if something is in triplets, for example."
We love the question, because this (and music theory in general) is something that isn't talked about a lot, but many struggle with it.
And it's absolutely necessary as a producer to know at least the basics here.
Without that basic knowledge, even simple tasks can be super time consuming and frustrating. Think editing, programming drums, getting delays right, importing multitracks into a session and setting it up properly, etc.
But, to be honest, at first it was kind of hard for us to give good advice here. It comes pretty natural to us, so we didn’t really have a process for it, other than some tapping and counting that we do automatically.
So we invited Thomas Krottenthaler to the show!
Thomas is our podcast editor, but more importantly, he has been working as an engineer with Benedikt, at his studio Outback Recordings, since 2019. Thomas has done a phenomenal job editing countless songs there AND he's a professional drummer / drum teacher, too!
So, we couldn't think of any person more skilled and better equipped to help us on this topic than Thomas.
Let's go!
