Every recording room has different sound characteristics. In order to record perfect-sounding drums, the drum kit would have to be equipped with the right skins for the recording room and specifically tuned to the room. Most of the time, this time cannot be spent due to the production budget. This often results in compromise solutions. At Tom Beck Recording, the drums are recorded in a 60 m2 room! The drum set was perfectly positioned, optimally tuned to the room acoustics and miked accordingly. This process alone took several weeks. Apart from the selection and testing of the technical components.
Scheduling and budgeting also speak in favor of outsourcing the drum recordings to Tom Beck: When a drummer is booked for a studio session, a day for travel, setup, positioning of the drums, miking and sound check usually goes by without a song being recorded. In addition, the appointments must be coordinated with everyone involved (studio, sound engineer, drummer). This is often complicated since most recording studios are busy with heavy production.

The time and money required for Tom Beck Recording is much less than for a conventional production: equipment and instruments are permanently installed and wired, which means that there is no unnecessary effort (and thus costs) for the set-up of drums and studio equipment. You can work productively immediately. Since only one person is compensated financially, the costs are even lower than for a conventional recording session.

Since the recording is made by the drummer, i.e. the specialist, the producer can count on a perfect result. After all, every professional drummer wants to deliver the perfect drum part! It doesn't matter to the client how long it takes, as Tom Beck Recording charges a flat rate per song and not according to effort (prices by arrangement).
