Studio assistant, again! Not that it's a bad thing, I enjoy being the assistant/photo guy. Anyway in this session we were recording...you guessed it, more drums performed by Mr Alex Ross himself! The role of studio engineer was filled by Alex Dudley while Dan Allen, the organiser of the session, was the producer. This session went pretty well, I think Pro Tools only crashed twice as opposed to the four or five times it crashed during our second recording session. We set up the drum kit and microphones with no trouble as usual, but while setting the levels we had a bit of a rogue floor tom issue where we couldn't seem to set it to an appropriate level. We resolved it within about 3 minutes though, we just had to keep adjusting the levels until it settled.

It took numerous takes until we had the perfect one, but that's perfectly acceptable since Alex Ross only had one day to practice the piece. Overall the session went very well and we accomplished everything we set out do.
