Modern Rock Drums — Full Processing Chain Tutorial
In this tutorial I walk you through the complete processing chain for modern rock drums — from raw recorded tracks to a punchy, tight, mix-ready drum sound.
What we cover step by step:
🎛️ Drum Bus Compression
→ Why bus compression is the first thing I do — tighter, more cohesive drums
🎛️ Per-Track EQ with Total EQ MK2 Auto EQ
→ Removing inharmonic frequencies from kick, snare, overheads, and room mics
→ Tonal balance adjustment in seconds
🎛️ Kick Drum Processing
→ Sub kick + transient shaping with H76 compressor
→ -5dB gain reduction for controlled punch
🎛️ Snare Drum Processing
→ Multi-track EQ correction + bus EQ + high-pass + body enhancement
→ H76 for tight, controlled compression
🎛️ Overheads & Room Mics
→ High-pass filtering, brightness adjustments
→ H160 for subtle overheads compression
→ H76 on room mics for compressed ambience (-20dB gain reduction)
🎛️ Toms Processing
→ Auto EQ on each tom track + global bus EQ + analog saturation
🎛️ Final Result
→ Before/After comparison — the transformation is dramatic
