Andrew Shreve - Paiste
Andrew was given a set of criteria (Rock, Hard Rock, Pop Punk, Metal, Jazz, Blues, Latin, Pop, etc…) to use as a guide for which cymbal combinations he would choose. The overall goal is to give an understanding of how to mix and match weights, sizes, and colors to create versatile set ups for any musical situation.
All this cymbal bliss was captured using a pair of Audio Technica 4050s in an X/Y overhead configuration, an SM57 on the snare, and an Audio Technica ATM25 inside the kick. All the mics are going through the Millennia HV-3D and an Apogee Rosetta 800. No compression or EQ was used during the recording process.
