Panning an instrument hard one side in the mix of backing tracks has come up before in a number of threads. One reason was to pan drums and or bass hard one side so you could adjust their volume in mix easily while performing.
I'm working with a drummer now and would like to use this idea so we can kill the drums in my existing mixes and still have the other instruments (bass/keys)to accompany us.
Initially I made up a bunch of tracks where I used volume automation on drums to allow the count-in then drop out drums. It works, but the tracks are really only useful in the no-drummer situation.
Panning drums hard should give me the ability to use the track with or without a drummer. I could even blend in some drums and let him play percussion. He's a pretty good congero.
I created a test track with drums hard left. It seems to get the job done. Don't notice anything weird.
Anyone who uses this technique: Do you have any tricks or gotcha's to be aware of. Trying not to make 30 of them before I find out I have the same problem in all of them.
Thanks,

I assume it is all ending up being sent to a mono live mix.
If so, this can work, but you have to dedicate one channel to just drums and be careful doing so.
If you accidentally let the piano or anything be centered, cutting the one side will affect the final outcome.
Make your sound your own!
.. I do not work here, but the benefits are still awesome

I mixed drums hard left and all the remaining instruments panned dead center.
The first bounce was stereo and I noticed a few things on the mp3.
On my single line array PA it works just fine. Pan mixer hard right no drums, hard left has drums, no apparent drops in volumes doing so.
On a set of stereo speakers with any distance between them it sounds like an old Beatles Record- Ringo hard left.
Not sure how much this matters. I want them mostly for practice and performing where I use my PA.
If one would output mono, would you pan drums hard left and all the remaining instruments hard right?
I didn't think of trying that.
It'll have to wait for a couple of day before I can try it.
