I will manually edit and quantize your rock or metal drums


About this gig
Need tighter drums without turning the performance into a robotic mess?
I manually edit and quantize live drum recordings for metal, rock, and other heavy music styles.
Unlike automated editing methods, every hit is checked and adjusted by hand to preserve the feel, groove, and dynamics of the original performance while improving timing and consistency.
Whether your drummer needs a light cleanup or more detailed timing correction, my goal is always the same: tight, natural-sounding drums that support the song without sounding edited.
I specialize in Heavy Metal, Power Metal, Symphonic Metal, Black Metal, Death Metal, Thrash Metal, Progressive Metal, Metalcore, and Hard Rock.
What you'll receive:
- Professionally edited drum tracks
- Tight timing while preserving natural feel
- Clean edits with no clicks or pops
- Revisions included
- Clear communication throughout the project
Please contact me before ordering if your project contains multiple songs or unusually large drum sessions.
