Today I recieved an email from a band that is looking for someone to mix their CD which was recorded at a "studio". I've seen the studio update on a youtube video, seems like a cool place, with decent equipment (Avalon preamps, pro tools hd stuff) Ok, so I reply saying, send me some tracks from one of the songs, and I'll mix that and send you a clip, if you like it then we do this.
So, I begin receiving the tracks (still recieving them as you read this) and yeah you guessed it....Garbage.
These are the drum tracks they sent me:

This is pretty common here, a lot of people have studios with expensive equipment, and all they record is pure garbage. Happened to me once in October last year, and now again.
This is unusable.
Not only that, the guy (the drummer) told me he didn't want it sound replaced, he wanted the drums to sound natural.
So yeah, /rant I guess.
