Today’s guest is Liberty DeVitto…the rhythmic powerhouse behind 22 of Billy Joel’s 23 top 40 hits and all six of his Grammy award winning recordings. His ability to seamlessly switch between mature session musician and bombastic showmen should be a guiding light for a lot of players you and old alike. I had a blast talking with liberty as we broke down his top five influences that shaped his drumming style. Also…go buy his damn book…which we talk about throughout. Cheers!

It "rides" the fader in real-time and keeps both my and my guest’s audio at a consistent level without the need to over compress. I also use an endless of amount of their plugins for my musical recordings such as Abbey Road Saturator, CLA Drums, the SSL Channel, and many more.
