Recording drums in my home studio - journal thread
It's my first post on the forum so - Hello!
I'm starting this thread to show my journey with learning how to record and mix drums in my home studio (and some bit of music productions too), so any advice and tips are more than welcome!
Here is my latest recording:
Some grooves inspired by my almost half-year stay in Central African Republic.
Cheers!

I'm happy to finally get some time with new drums - Gretsch Broadkaster, amazing instrument.
Sound is treated with some filthy distortion, heavy compression and pedalboard fx's, hope you enjoy!

I had some problems with the bass drum signal but I guess the gain was too hot? (or some inconsistency in playing volume... )
Let me know what you think and have w beautiful day!
