FAQ
What genres do you specialize in?
Pop, funk, soul, jazz, nu-jazz, hip-hop, R&B, trap, Latin, rock and singer-songwriter. 25 years of experience across all of them, with a particular feel for groove-driven music. Send me a reference track and I'll confirm the right approach for your song.
What's your gear and studio?
Acoustically treated room designed for drum recording. Drums: Gretsch Brooklyn Snares: Sonor Performer, Slingerland, Sonor AQ2 Cymbals: Meinl Preamps: SSL Pure Drive Quad, API Interface: UA Apollo x8p DAW: Logic Pro X on Mac Full mic list in the next FAQ.
What's your microphone setup for drums?
15-channel setup: Snare Top/Bottom: SM57 Snare Side: SE X1A Kick In: Behringer BA 19A Kick Out: Lauten Kick Subkick: custom Overheads: Lewitt LCT 440 (×2) Rack/Floor Tom: Lauten Tom Mic Hi-Hat: SM7B Cock Mic: Aston Origin Rooms: UAD Sphere DLX, t.bone BC 500
What's your typical work process?
I listen to your track, study references, then tune the kit and choose mics based on the song's character. I record multiple takes, pick the best one, and deliver clean stems ready for mixing. I keep you updated and welcome feedback at every stage.
How do you deliver the final product?
You receive individual WAV stems at 44.1 or 48 kHz, 24-bit, named and organised in a folder. Delivery is via Fiverr's upload system or WeTransfer for larger sessions. All files are edited, aligned to the click, and ready to drop into your DAW.
Do you offer revisions?
Yes. Basic includes 1 revision, Standard 2, Premium 3. A revision can be a different take, a variation in feel, or adjustments to specific sections. If a change is out of the original scope, I'll let you know and we can discuss a custom offer, always transparently.
What's your turnaround for urgent deadlines?
Premium includes 24-hour delivery by default. On Basic and Standard, 24h delivery is available as an extra. My on-time delivery rate is 100% across nearly 1000 orders, so you can count on hitting your deadline, especially helpful for sync, ad, and last-minute projects.
Do you offer bundle pricing for albums or EPs?
Yes. For projects of 3+ tracks I can prepare a custom offer with better per-track pricing, a pre-production call, and consistent sound across the whole record. Send me a message with your project details and I'll build a tailored proposal.
Why should I hire you instead of using drum samples or AI drums?
Samples and AI are fine for demos, but real drums bring human dynamics, micro-timing, and interaction with your song that programmed tracks can't match. Every take is unique, every fill is played for your music, and the groove breathes. That's what separates a good track from a memorable one.
Do you work as an individual or as a studio?
I operate through Redrum S.R.L.S, my registered Italian recording studio. This means you're working with a professional business entity, not a freelancer, with proper invoicing via Fiverr's system, VAT compliance for EU clients, and a dedicated setup designed around drum recording.

Francesco is a great drummer who has his sound dialed in. He plays great and the kit sounds wonderful. He was very quick on his delivery and after some feedback took my notes and made a revision which was perfect. He is great to work with, recommended!

I sent Francesco a demo with a rough version of the drums and a couple of references for sound and feel. My requirements were not simple but he instantly got the sound I needed, and with minor suggestions he delivered the reviewed version expectionally fast with everything that I asked for. Very happy with the result. Thank you so much Francesco.

Fast delivery of high-quality work. Of course, it still needs to be mixed properly, but Francesco’s recording was almost flawless. He understood the brief very well and recorded drums that fit the style of the song perfectly. I definitely won’t be using him for the last time.
