Episode notes
In this episode, I sit down with James Yates, the founder of Majetone. We trace his journey from the drum throne to the engineering suite, exploring how his experience as a session drummer and assistant to Jimmy Hogarth led him to become one of the most innovative plugin designers in the industry today. Whether you're looking for technical studio hacks—like his unique method for adding mass to a bass drum—or career advice for the modern musician, James offers a masterclass in staying curious and versatile.
