Save BIG when you buy today!. Geared for the serious recording percussionist, The Studio Percussionist Volume 1 DVD gives a firsthand glimpse at the recording process of one of the most sought-after studio percussionists in the world. Luis Cont demonstrates how to record drum tracks and the overlaying of additional tracks to complete a cut. Additionally, he shows how to create entirely different "feels" from a single basic drum track and how to record multiple percussion instruments within a single track (allowing the over-dub process to maximize the available number of tracks). This instructional DVD also highlights Luis' playing of congas, bongos, timbales, djembes, tambourines, cajons, shekeres, whistles, and other small percussion instruments.

Not what I was expecting
The video is well done, but I was hoping for an instructional video and this video lacks any of that. It goes into a lot of different instruments but it doesn't teach any techniques in details. I was disappointed.

Good to watch
Luis is a toppercussionist and he shows on this dvd how to use all your percussion instruments to make a song complete. I have more dvd's about percussion, but I like this one a lot! I can advise this one to everyone who will see what you can do with percussion.

great material by Chef Luis
Conte builds up 5 basic rhythm tracks (some with a band), demonstrating the use of overdubs in the studio to get the effect he wants. He likens himself to a chef mixing different spices, a good analogy. He plays congas, bongos, cajon, timbales, djembes, shekere, caxixi and more. He demonstrates an interesting technique for 2 tambourines. He demonstrates how to give a latin feel or a funk or pop feel to the same basic track by varying the percussion patterns.He shows how to add 'percussion color' using lot of toys, effects and small instruments. I didn't think he was as good as Airto in this part but you can still learn a lot.He's recorded with Jackson Browne, Andy Narell, Madonna, Toto, Pat Metheny and many, many more artists.Overall, a very useful video for the percussionist who wants to move towards the professional level.
