Summary
Not only for
fans of the world-class drummers Simon Phillips, Kenny Aronoff, Dennis Chambers,
and Mel Gaynor, but for everybody who is interested in 5.1 surround recording
and mixing, SPL's "surrounded by drums" DVD is a special delicacy. The DVD
offers the unique hearing experience to listen to the drum legends from their
perspective. At the same time the DVD gives an insight into the production of
the first 5.1 drum sample library which has been recorded using SPL's surround
recording system Atmos 5.1. The DVD-Video is ideally suited to get an impression
of the latest technologies and implementations of up-to-date multi channel
productions. SPL deliberately had chosen to record drums, because the belong to
the most difficult recordings in modern music while at the time offering one of
the most spectacular hearing sensation in surround. The DVD-Video offers both
Dolby Digital and DTS audio formats as well as stereo downmixes.
