Music: "Apex Blasphemy" by Cattle Decapitation - Jak na to + styl
Cattle Decapitation is the best extreme metal band I've ever heard. Everything they do is insanely technical and the talent is off the charts. Travis's voice is unmatched and the drums are some of the best in the world.
agreed but travis has a soft voice and when he sings oh my lord
I think the drum sound could do with a bit more low end TBH as It sounds like an angry typewriter most of the time. The playing is phenomenal, but the tone lacks weight.
Professional recording engineers are so intimidating. They look like a band member but they are easily the smartest person in the room.
I wish more people did such comprehensive and straightforward explanations of their engineering. Thank you very much for sharing!
Thanks for watching!
Your videos are great in very informative. Please keep them coming. So glad to see the mastermind behind these last few Cattle Decapitation albums. The sound is phenomenal.
Thank you!
You produced the greatest metal album known to man. Thank you for your service.
Amazing stuff dude. I love this band!
So awesome. I can't to hear this album!
Just discovered your channel man, this is so cool! Keep it up. Cattle decapitation is one of my favorite bands too
Dave, this video is soooo appreciated. I am such a fan of the sounds you get on albums you record and these insights are beyond priceless!
Glad you dig it, man! More to come for sure. đ€
Love your channel dave! đ€đ
Thank you for such detailed explanation about the gear you are using! I was super lucky to be able to use some of these mics (KM184, MD421, Cascades) and some pres during my studies! Looking forward to to the new Cattle record and more video updates from you, Dave!
Cheers from Norway!
You're a production genius. Death Atlas is a masterpiece đ€đ€
The writing, performance, and sound of this album are out of this world. The breakdown in Death Atlas at 2:30 took me by surprise and was so brutal it almost made me laugh (I mean that in the best way possible). Everything about it blows my mind. You guys really knocked it out of the park. Congrats!
Thanks man!
The album sounds amazeballs. Made my top album of year and made it into my list of top 20 metal albums of all time. Cool studio and video man. It's been a long time since I've been in a modern recording studio since I don't play in bands anymore and I'm only a home studio solo guy now. Pretty cool to see what producers and engineers are working with these days. Keep on rockin' dude!
Cheers man! Thanks for watching. đ»
Great vid! I've mixed Cattle live in New Zealand and can confirm drummer is a beast.
Absolute beast.
Thanks Dave. Great stuff!
Dave is such a beast. The greatest and most musically creative tech-death drummer. So stoked to hear what they do after the masterful Anthropocene record. Thanks for sharing this!
Try Jamie st Merat or lille gruber!!!
I'd love an in depth video explaining how you're using the surface pro! I'm trying to do something similar but I can't seem to get the latency down. I have the same model as you too. Great work with the album it sounds insane đ€đ€đ€
You are Amazing.
thanks for sharing that with us.
Awesome little video, I'm so hyped for the new album! đ
Thanks for checking it out!
Metal Blade just released a little teaser... dude, this mix's sounding AMAZING! Drums are beautiful!
Thanks! I'm stoked on the mix!
Theses are awesome videos man thanks for doing these
Yep! More coming at some point.
Sick bro thanks for sharing
thanks for all the videos Dave.
Thanks for checking them out!
this album is still amazing
Yes!!!! Finally!!! Great vid btw
Thanks!
Thanks for the insights!!! I love studio videos so much! Only Surface Pro 6 for tracking??? That's crazy)
Can't wait for more snippets and maybe playthroughs)
Haha Surface Pro for tracking? That's awesome. Another very informative and to-the-point vid from the man himself.
Keep up the great work! Stoked for Death Atlas
The Surface rules! Thanks man!
That song in the background at the start sounded so FUCKING good.
That's from their last album. Go check it out!
Dave O Whatâs the name of the song?
Music: "Apex Blasphemy" by Cattle Decapitation
this man is what made cattle amazing. of course they were awesome before monolith but then this mastermind came along
Man awesome! For those of us that are drummers please think about offering a way for us to hear or purchase just the isolated recorded drum tracks themselves. Would love to hear it. Iâd buy that along with the album. It would be epic and I dint know of anyone whoâs offered that yet. You could do that for guitarists too who would like to hear just that instrument. Anyway you get where Iâm going with this, just a suggestion! Cheers and canât wait to hear it!
I think that would be cool as well! Not really up to me unfortunately. Ask the band and the label for sure though.
Also, if that's something you're interested in check out Nail the Mix. It's more geared toward aspiring mixers and producers, but essentially offers exactly what you're asking for.
I sure will. Iâd love to see video to of Daveâs footwork, I know itâs a pipe dream but would be epic to hear nothing but the drum tracks and see what heâs doing for those of us that are drummers & simply amazed at his playing. Thanks for the response & im amazed at your knowledge on all your gear etc. theyâre obviously in the right hands. Cheers
Do you have any idea what size cymbals he used for his stack? I wanna make my own but I canât find anything stating the size of cymbals he used
Glad you are still doing this. I remember you just recording Hostile Intent in your basement back in the day. Glad to see you've come so far and are successful as fuck at it! Oh, yeah and welcome to CZcams! Your videos are super informative all though it's all Greek to me. Cheers buddy!
Thanks, Dyl! I've watched a few of yours as well and they definitely get the travel itch going. Hope to see you again soon, man!
New sub! Keep it brutal dude!
Thanks man!
SICK! đ„đ€đŒđ„đ„đ€đŒđ„
đ€đ€đ»đđđ±âđ
These videos are filmed really well nice đđ
Thanks man! :)
I really enjoyed your lessons on URM academy and also of the latest releases you produced... especially the bass and drum sound on the latest nightbringer was really good. Thoroughly enjoyed this one as well. recording, mixing and producing drums is a bitch and a half, especially if you are just starting out and are just intimidated by all the options, problems and possibilites you are faced with.
Thanks! đ»
Glad you decided to start a channel. Instant sub.
Thanks, man! Hope you enjoy the videos.
Dave is a legend.
đ€đ€
Anyone knows exactly what triggers those are on the bassdrum?
are there going to be any videos for the cattle record thats in the works?
Or videos in general? I liked the mic battle stuff
spectacular. that tablet is a shocker, but make sense. really smart choices across the board, especially the blumlein. i love seeing cool stereo pairs for contemporary projects like this. cheers!
I love my little Surface!
Otero for President \m/
Do you still pan out your cascade room mics when they are stacked on top of one another like that?
For someone who's about to get into recording live drums for death metal/slam type stuff would you still recommend a set of room mics? I'm getting the 7 piece Shure mic kit soon but ill have to get a set of room mics (or maybe just 1 and use a mono room) on top of that eventually.
Edit:
Nevermind just saw that the mics are angled in an XY type pattern. My bad XD
What did you mean you have a low slope all the way open? Do you mean EQ or can you make a video showing what you mean cause I donât think my mics have a thing on it to do that
Great video.
Thanks!
very cool video!
Thanks for checking it out!
This video was awesome! WOw, just give away all the secrets lol
Hope it helps you dial in some sick sounds! đ€đ€
Why does it have to be secrets? Sharing makes us all better.
Please show me a video of that dude drumming. It can be 3 hours long AND ILL STILL WATCH ALL OF IT
Check out the Sick Drummer CZcams Channel.Lot's of McGraw and other killer drummers.
really enjoy your videos! but what's the fating sound in the background right at the begining? haha
That's the auto-focus motor clicking on the lens I was using for that shot. I learned the hard way that it's too loud to use with camera mounted mic. Audio I know pretty well, but I'm just learning this cinematography business :)
Thanks for watching!
In your perfect world, how do you *prefer* to mic/track high velocity kicks? I've experimented with micing, triggering, blending, multi mic setups, and all kinda of cool things come out of it. What's *YOUR* favorite?
What exactly do you mean by high velocity? I'm almost always using a blend of the mic kick and samples and how much I use of each varies greatly depending on the project.
@@DaveOteroTube I'm talking anything above, say, 180 BPM, because, that's when things can get dodgy in my experience.
I've never hit a subscribe button so fast!
đđđ
so what about phase on the many overheads. also phase with overheads and spot cymbal mics. ?>
That can be a trade off on big kits like this. I'll keep phase in mind while positioning mics and move them a bit if necessary, then also use auto align after tracking to restore as much phase coherencey as possible.
@@DaveOteroTube That's very interesting. I'm asking because when i'm recording drums - i use a very similar setup, only difference is that i like to use MS for my rooms and i'm also fighting for phase between mics. I'll try the auto align for my next project for sure. Thanks for the response dude!
Heyo I was right about why you have double triggers on the kicks đ€Sick video, Dave!
Thanks!
Why else would he have 2 sets on there?
will they be on tour this year for their new album,, and is there a tour date for denver?
You just missed them on Summer Slaughter, but I'm sure they'll be back soon.
Dave, do you have a drum tracking setup at your studio?
I do, and I have a bunch of nice gear and mics that I love, but it's a pretty small room. It gets the job done though. Most other albums I've done I've tracked drums at my studio, including the previous two cattle albums. đ€
Oh Dave. You so dreamy
đ
Whatâs your usual panning scheme with the 4 overhead setup?
I'll typically start off by hard panning the left and right sides and then bringing certain mics in a bit if I feel they need it to sound more natural.
Nice set up. What s approx the size of the room (LĂWxH) ?
I don't know for sure, but I'd think that'd be listed on the studio's site (if there is one).
@@JUNKO____ 23x17x9 (for those interested)
Thanks for doing the research!
Surface Pro as a remote recording rig is actually a great idea, damn
It rules.
Wouldâve been nice to actually see footage of him playing drums.
Will there be videos going over guitars and vocals as well?
Yep!
@@DaveOteroTube hell yeah!
You check out the guitar video yet?
@@DaveOteroTube I have, it was killer! Wasn't expecting a HiWatt, and I've personally never seen picks with metal tips on them. Lot of cool info.
As a vocalist myself, I'm really looking forward to the vocal video. Still enjoy the studio video from the Monolith recording sessions
The introduction needed an Adidas track suit and a beret
Which song is being played in the background???
It's a NEW song you'll get to hear soon enough ;)
@@DaveOteroTube oh wow...
My mistake. This song is actually from the last album.
Music: Apex Blasphemy by Cattle Decapitation
And Music?
Check out my other videos on guitar and bass recording to hear some of the music and tones. Thanks for watching!
Thought id get to see those leg tats from the thumbnail. Click baited by Satan lol
Haha! My plan all along.
Two Davids make one Goliath of drums

Music: "Apex Blasphemy" by Cattle Decapitation
Added to description as well. đ€
thank you very much Dave O! I remember when cattle decapitation were on a program called Fox Rox! record that presentation on VHS! Haha old days. regards!
That drummer is all legs. No wonder he plays haha.
Insta like...
Thanks!
đšđ± đšđ±
Hey. I love you.
đźđźđź You're pretty cool too.
Dave Otero hey now, donât go catching feelings. Letâs keep this casual.
Dave Otero I dream of recording drums in your studio. Iâll drive to wherever to do this some day
Seriously?!
Dead.
We don't deServe this thank you
đ€đ€
Still edited and chopped up like Jason Voorhees
Not small? LOL, not really large either. Well, I guess compared to douchebagcore 4-piece kits it is...
Any chance you have the tuning intervals for the toms? Always been intrigued by the sound and tone of them
