Apex mics fed through a Yorkville VGM 14 Mixer and recorded with a Zoom H4N Digital recorder.
Audio mixed in Logic Pro X.
I do all of my own shooting, mixing and video editing. I have multiple cameras (2 GoPros a Sony Camcorder a Canon SLR and my phone camera) each capturing different angles. Sometimes I'll add a close-up to highlight various details after the video is shot. In this case, I added a close-up of the cowbell.
Video produced in Final Cut Pro

Love the way you incorporated the roto toms into the background. Great cover

[@DomenicNardone]

Thanks, It sounds like Alex is using cowbells in the recording instead of rotos, but I had to work with what I got :)

[@SteveTheDrummer]

@@DomenicNardone it was really tastefully played 🥁

[@stevejones6247]

[@DomenicNardone]

Thank you Steve!

[@migy5031]

Awesome performance! Looks like a great song to play along. 👍

[@DomenicNardone]

Thanks! Yeah, it's a fun song to play!

[@TruthOverLies]

Oh that snare! I love it! ❤ Please tell me how you tune it 🙏🏼

[@DomenicNardone]

Thanks! I try to tune the top head to the song I'm covering. The bottom head is usually left alone at a medium to tight tuning. Pearl Sensitone snare with EVANS Genera Dry coated head on top, Clear Evans 500gl on the bottom.
