Same post is on the Phil O'keefe board. I thought you guys might be of some help too.
I would like to take my session drumming experiance to the digital age and try to get some side work by adding pro drum tracks to people's songs via email.
I saw a few ads from guys who say they can add drum tracks to a session from his own studio remotely.
First of all, what would be the most logical way to do this?
1. Recieve a whole wav file of the completed song, minus the drum track with a click? Then I lay down the drum track and they align my wav with the session? 2. They send me the whole session, and then I lay down the drum track and send the session back to them? Might be a problem if we use different DAW's. I know half the world uses PT, I use Nuendo.
I would also imagine that all tracks would have to be sent dry so they can add reverb accordingly to their mix when they recieve the track.
Any other logical solutions you guys can think of to make this a possibility??
I would offer a real kit and a Roland digital kit. (the Roland would make life alot easier with a left and right out :-) --------------------------------------------------------------------------------

I think you`re on the right track. Have clients send the files as well as a two bar into click track. Record tracks "dry" and on individual tracks as well as stereo OH track so they can mix to taste.
