Since producing the critically acclaimed recording of Paul Lovett-Cooper's (Black Dyke Mills Band) 'Horizons' DRS have carried out a number of brass band recordings across Europe.

Brass band recording packages range from a small multi-mic recording through to multi-camera, surround sound DVD productions. Most audio only projects are carried out using an eight channel production system. This is generally enough to make provisons for stereo mics, percussion, soloists and two section mics.. This means that during the post-production stage, the level of natural acoustic can be altered depending on the sound of the venue and the nature of the recording as well as being able to artifically adjust the dynamic to make sure that any soloists can be clearly heard.

All of our brass recording packages are inclusive of some editing, mixing and mastering which means that at the end of the project, our clients have a polished master ready for duplication and sale. Using our digital post-production suites, various takes can be edited together to create a perfect master take, something that until recently was only possible in the imagination of musical directors.

The location at which recordings take place is usually dictated by the band although, if asked, our team are normally able to recommend or source an ideal venue. School/town halls, churches and concert halls are normally ideal providing that there is not too much external noise.
