How did you do drums?
MM: It was very interesting. I really love the Toontrack sample library, and Superior Drummer 2.0 in particular – which is what we used for the album. But I also really love the way Matt [Halpern] plays – he’s got a very unique approach. So what we did was… I used to have a Roland TD-20 [Electronic drum kit], and I ended up selling it to our tour manager Justin Gosnell – he’s got an entire recording setup as his place. So Matt went over and tracked the drums there, and took the MIDI information and then I imported it.
So we were able to get Matt’s unique performance, which I’m really happy with, and then replace it with the Superior Drummer samples. I feel that’s the best of both worlds – you get the performance and you get the sounds, which in my opinion are very hard to match without going to a ridiculous studio, because those are recorded in the best studios in the world. I’m very happy with the way the drums came out on the album as a result. That is probably the way we’re going to continue to record. He was more than happy to play through an electronic kit, and that way we have all his beats and his fills and ghost notes.
