Decided to finally utilize my Mackie board for recording, so spent the day tuning and Micing drums. I am sticking with a basic 4 mic setup (kick, snare, ohL,ohR), but am also close Micing the toms to mix them with the OH's. The OH's will be basically the room sound, natural reverb. Setup is this: Kick: Audio- Technica MB series; Snare: GLS Audio 57 copy mic.

Ok so I understand that many professional studios use big open wooden rooms to record drums in to get a more punchy sound. I happened to come across an article that said if you go out and buy plywood to put over the walls (and floor if there's carpet) that it will help achieve something close to that sound you can achieve in the professional studio.

hey guys

I'm thinking of doing some online session drumming. would anyone be interested in having me drum on their tracks?

I'm in the process of updating my website to show what i sound like but theres a few clips up at the moment

One of the big things that I haven't been able to figure out on Cubase 5 is how to easily edit live drums that aren't quite in time. For my drum tracks I usually have 8 different tracks that I am working with, and in order to fix timing issues, I have to edit each individual track.

Me and my band Last Souls Alive (http://www.myspace.com/golastsoulsalive)

We are going to record 2-3 demos 14th of January. Now I have a question about drumrecording.

Hi!

My name is Micke, I am a drummer and I also own a studio. I would like to help you by adding well recorded drums to your songs. I will do it for free as long it's a demo or no budget involved. Mainly I do this because I think it's a nice way to meet new people in the world of music.

To hear samples please visit my website:

okay up until now (the ~5 years ive been home recording) ive always used midi drums, lately DKFH2, and have learned the ins and outs of mixing them to taste, but ive run into a problem. were recording live drums for my bands demo, and have been unsuccessful twice now.

hello. Having used drums samples and loops so far, now i am diving into a project where i have to mix real live drums recorded in a studio. The separate tracks comprise. as usual, snare, kick, toms, hihat, n.2 OH, and Figure-eight takes. Before getting into an uncontrollable mess, does anybody have some tips on how to start with it?

Hi all. My band is a three piece (guitar, bass and drums) rock band, playing original music. Recently we've been recording some things using loops. The question I have is this...How could I best monitor the loops from behind the drums using headphones?

Hey all, I'm looking for ways to get live drums to sound more raw, but without losing too much quality (ala EMU SP1200). They are recorded pretty well with 2 OH's, snare and kick mics in a pretty dry space. I tried cycling them through BATTERY and dropping the bit rate to 12 bit, along with some slammed compression on a aux. send, but it didn't really produce the effect I wanted.
