Allen Sides Puts Out the Hits!
Drum hits that is. In a collaboration with Dave Kerzner and Sonic Reality, the famed producer/engineer and owner of Ocean Way Studios has taken some of the world’s greatest drummers and put them in his legendary Studio B (home to hits from Green Day, Radiohead, Paul McCartney, Eric Clapton and the like), with his world-class collection of mics. Then he and producer Steven Miller captured the best snares, kicks, toms, hats and cymbals using a multimic technique in a big room. The result, at least what we heard on the show floor, is icredibly deep and spatial. Ocean Way Drums, the product, is available with individual presets or submixes, all at 24-bit/96 or 24/48. But wait! There’s more! Allen is also making his unique monitoring mains, developed over the last 30 years, available for purchase through GC Pro. We’ve heard them in his rooms; nothing else like it. And the price? Well, if you have to ask…
