  • From the much underrated album "Promised Land" which I recently reopened and found a new respect for...Queensryche has always led the way with new and different sounds and VERY relevant songwriting. I have found myself going back and reading the lyrics of their earlier albums before the breakup and am always blown away with the depth and musicianship or this amazing group. Of course you already know I'm the biggest Scott Rockenfield fan so there's that too...Played to a drumless track I created from the Xtrax Stems 2 program and on a kit I specifically built in the TD-30 module for this album sound. I dare you to compare it to the original!!

    The Roland TD-30 is one of the best sounding drum kits I have ever heard. They are totally in their own league and no other Roland drums sound anything like them.

    • @mfournier01
      @mfournier01  Před 4 lety +1

      Thanks Rich Dawg! Yes I love the the a Ride/hat groove Scott has played in many of my favorite Ryche songs. He also throws in many subtle splashes and off beat accents that he never used to do before Promised Land. He, as well as the band was always changing and learning new styles, yet another reason I appreciate him and how he has influenced me over the years!

      Not a bad idea Mike although I’m more interested now in developing the sounds from samples. Hmmmm I wonder who got me into that? Well aside from that I considered sharing some of my own presets and have already. It would be nice to get paid from them though! Thanks for watching my friend

    Wow MIKE! Just noticed this one and DANGGG! Killer performance and mastery of the mix. I always love covers that sound like the drum performance is part of the song. You and Trey B are favs because of that. You guys make it sound like you were part of the band. You have nailed the V-Drum world perfectly. Just a great vid of a really cool song, period.

    • @mfournier01
      @mfournier01  Před 3 lety

      True I’ve always found it fun and challenging to sound like I’ve “replaced” the original drummer with not only the sound, but the style as well. Trey has a much better mixing/engineering talent than I but with the V-Drums I don’t have to worry about mics/room/bleed etc. it’s nice to just plug in, set my levels, and go at it! Thanks for your observations brother!

    Mike dude!!!! I had no clue that you liked Scott Rockenfield I liked you before I like you even more now Rockenfield is one of my top 5 favorite drummers I have him up there with the likes of Lars Ulrich, Dave Lombardo and the late Nick Menza. I have recently started to listen to Queensryche again and I stumbled upon the live version of this song and it was simply awesome but your cover was 10 TIMES better dude. But what am I to expect from you EVERY cover that you've done you have absolutely killed. I am always excited when you do a cover because I know when I hear it I am always gonna be blown away

      I would have loved that gig Pauly but I’m getting too old to keep up with that kind of schedule lol! Funny thing, Susan Tate reached out to me in Jan. via Facebook from our Kingsryche tribute page and asked me to fill in a few European dates with Geoff’s band. They were doing Rage and Empire albums! I originally said yes and broke down my gear and had a plane ticket in hand...had to cancel though. $ was crap and I would have lost my job and family medical insurance🙁. Was psyched for the offer though. I screen shot the ticket ans some text conversations for proof lol

    • @DrumsbyPaulyG
      @DrumsbyPaulyG Před 4 lety

      mfournier01 holy shit!! Man that would’ve been an awesome gig but I totally understand why you didn’t take it. I had the same experience when I was younger and a very popular Aussie band wanted a drummer for a 6 month tour...money was crap and I’d have to give up everything. It’s a hard choice to make.
      Cheers Paul.

    Have we ever released drum covers on the same day? If not, today is the day! As always, solid playing and amazing song choices! Not gonna lie, I come to see if you got a cover with the SD3 samples working. Still waiting. Happy Father's Day (if applicable), Mike!

    • @mfournier01
      @mfournier01  Před 4 lety

      Ha good deal Bryan! We should team up to do a double drums cover or something crazy like that! So I just got a 43” TV today for the studio. Father’s Day gift from my two kids. Using it so I can actually see what I’m doing in SD3. I’m having a tough time seeing the screen on my 15” laptop while sitting at the kit. I am also struggling with figuring out the interface. I’m so used to mixing and tweaking the sounds to my liking on the fly, I am unsure how to get the sounds I’m looking for in the program. Maybe I need to use Slate or Addictive? The processing is already done...your opinion?

    • @RedGearMusic
      @RedGearMusic Před 4 lety

      @@mfournier01 Trying to get the sounds you want in SD3 is a really challenge; I struggle with it to this day. What I typically do is find a preset kit that is close to what I want, and then just start tweaking it from there. Takes time but once you figure it out, it's great. I have the added resource of having multiple sound packs so layering other samples on top of samples helps a whole lot; like did you know my snare and kick sounds are usually 3 different samples? Layering samples is part of the key with SD3.

    Damn how did I miss this, you got new IEM's....what did you get? Give me a review on how you like them. I use Sony headphones when tracking/practicing and use my Bose Soundsport (like you have) when making the video.

    • @mfournier01
      @mfournier01  Před 4 lety

      Ha! Can’t get anything past you can I? So I was reading a string on the V-Drums Facebook page about best headphones to use and many drummers use the KZ ZS-10 pro 1DD in ears. For $45 I was all in. Definitely louder and broader frequency range than the Bose Soundsports. I think the highs are a bit overdriven though. The recording never sounds as bright after the fact so I found myself kicking up the highs to compensate on the track. I had to change the tips to find the right fit which is oddly difficult but they feel comfortable now. I would still mix with the Bose!
