Welcome to the Playbooks Area! 

This is an ever-growing library of additional content that is not included in our courses. Only Syndicate Members have access to this.


Important:

  • You can go through these Playbooks anytime and find things that are interesting to you. But if you are in our 1-on-1 mentoring program, we'll make sure to assign you only the things you really need. In fact, in that case you should just stick to the plan (your roadmap) and focus on one thing at a time.

  • If you can't find a certain piece of information in here, please know that most of the record making process is already covered inside of our different courses. So, if you have access, please go there and watch the module you currently need:
    • Mix-Ready: The Band Recording Essentials covers writing, arranging, pre-production, recording, source tones, mic placement, acoustics, instrument setup, drum tuning, big picture info and the record making process in general.
    • Dead-On Drums covers editing (specifically drum editing, but those techniques can be applied to everything else, too.)
    • Mixes Unpacked is all about mixing
    • Guitar Setup Masterclass - With Diego Casillas shows you how to set up your guitars and basses.

Go through all the Action Steps in order. Please know that all of this applies to real drums, as well as programmed drums or added samples. If you're not using samples, think about how all of the concepts in this Action Plan apply to your real drums. After all, samples are real recordings of drums. So things like tuning, attack, sustain, ambience, drum selection, setup etc. always apply, regardless of your recording or programming approach.

About the teacher

Benedikt Hain

Benedikt Hain is an engineer, producer and mixer with a special passion for rock, alternative and heavy music. Working with lots of different artists, labels and corporate clients, he has gained experience with music of all styles, while always keeping that focus on rock and alternative sub-genres like punk, metal or hardcore.

Many people struggle to get this kind of music to sound punchy and modern, while keeping the feel, raw energy and emotional impact of the performance. It often sounds either weak and amateur, or completely fake and artificial. So Benedikt has dedicated his whole career to making professional, high-end recordings and mixes that will make bands happy for the rest of their lives and deliver all the energy, emotion and power of their songs to their listeners.
