Studio Percussionist

Geared for the serious recording percussionist, this DVD gives a first-hand glimpse at the recording process of one of the most sought-after studio percussionists in the world. Luis Conté demonstrates the recording of basic tracks and the overlaying of additional tracks to complete a cut. Additionally, he shows how to create entirely different "feels" from a single basic track and how to record multiple percussion instruments within a single track (allowing the over-dub process to maximize the available number of tracks). This DVD also highlights Luis' playing of congas, bongos, timbales, djembes, tambourines, cajons, shekeres, whistles, and miscellaneous small percussion instruments.
