Members Dash OH drummer Posted January 5, 2003 Members Share Posted January 5, 2003 Maybe I am a moron but: Are you referring to how the drums fit the song? Or are you referring to how the drums sound recorded? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cheers, Ian............. http://www.resound-uk.com/drumtest.mp3 sounds good to me man. ride comes through pretty good, cymbals sound bright and not too high or low...bass drum is a nice THUD and the snare sounds good also. Sounds like the drums will sit well in the mix, from what i've heard. I feel like rockin' out now! I give it an A+ may i ask what your setup was...??

Members Ian@resound-uk Posted January 7, 2003 Author Members Share Posted January 7, 2003 Originally posted by HulkBlood01 heh.......but what did you use in the way of microphones, and how many..? Oh..........doh I borrowed all the mics off my mate who's an engineer. 1 red 5 audio rvd1 bass mic about 3-4 inches from the beater and a c1000 condensor just outside the front skin. sm57s on the snare and 2 toms. A pair of red 5 audio rv4 condensors as overheads, not actually "overhead" I set them about 1 meter behind the kit at about a foot above the cymbals one pointing at the ride but situated nearer to the crash, and one pointing between the hats and 2nd crash. All the mics went to a behringer mixer (borrowed off another mate ) then to my soundcard. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
