This has probably been the most time-consuming video to date, over 6.5 hours of raw footage and many more editing, but I wanted to give you a really thorough walkthrough of my whole MIDI drum process! I go over some basics of writing parts, show you my recording process, editing MIDI drums, then mixing everything with 3 different drum libraries: ‪@Ugritone‬ Total Studio Drums, ‪@HertzDrums‬ White Pack, and ‪@StevenSlateAudio‬ SSD 5.5.

There are chapters for all the major sections, but a lot of info everywhere. Despite the length, I've tried to get as much useful content into the shortest time!

If you have any questions on topics I didn't cover, leave them in the comments, and for more discussion and feedback, check the link below to my discord server and join the conversation there.
