For those looking to streamline their practice, I offer a personalized drum transcription service. We’ll coordinate to figure out which song, solo, or section you’d like written down, and I’ll create a clear, easy-to-read drum chart exclusively for you.
Drum transcriptions can be written according to your notation preferences, and can include suggested stickings and practice recommendations. Check the photo gallery for a few examples of my recent work.
This service is billed hourly at $75 USD per hour, and I use an online time tracking app so that I’m only charging for time that I’m actively transcribing.
“I do a lot of transcribing when I want to learn new licks, language, or extended passages played by different drummers, but my free time is somewhat limited and I often want to devote it directly to practicing. I had seen some of Jacob’s excellent transcriptions on YouTube and reached out to him recently to ask if he might be interested in doing some “transcriptions for hire.” He signed up right away, and it’s been a great partnership. He’s fast, his transcriptions are thoughtful, detailed, and accurate, and when there are unusual time signatures or voicings or other things that might be open to interpretation, he’s careful to discuss them with me in advance to ensure he presents them on the page in the best way possible. Jacob’s transcription work has accelerated my practice program tremendously and has been incredibly helpful to my ongoing growth as a player.”

“I was fortunate to hire Jacob for a drum transcription, and I am so grateful I did. His communication and professionalism was clear throughout; timely, accurate, and thoughtful towards my needs as a musician. His transcription is vital to my ability to accurately recreate my ideas in the studio and I would recommend him to any musician looking for the same.”
