i have superior and it sounds really raw and its almost impossible for me to try to get the metal drum sounds ive heard out of many clips online. I noticed that there is the ez drummer as well as the drums from hell expansion pack that seems to be processed drums as that advertise. Would this maybe be the clips ive heard online.

Hey guys, been a while since iv been on here. Iv been doing a bit more recording since last on and they were mostly metal bands. The problem iv been having most was on the kick drum, I cant get that slapping click like on most metal drums like from bands like fear factory, strapping young lad, shadows fall etc...

Secrets of the newbies,

Hey guys, my name is JoshUA Hamilton and I own and operate a recording studio in Middletown, Ohio called JoshUA Recording Studios. You can check out some demos of my work at http://myspace.com/joshuarecordingstudios .

Tried a bit of drum Micing last night. One mic pointing at snare just next to the tom. Maybe 6 inches from the snare. This one sounded good.
Another mic on the opposite side of the toms under the cymbal, trying to find a dead zone. This wasn't so great.

Hi, can someone please point me to a nice step by step tutorial on comping multitrack drums in Pro Tools? I'm a master in Logic, but pretty much a retard in Pro Tools. I've tracked 12 takes of drums one over top the other. All of the takes are nicely filed over in the region list. Now I want to audition each one and pick the best parts. Then edit them all together to form one brilliant take.

I have an Audix D6 that I use on the kick. 75% of the time I place it about 2-3" outside the sound hole.

Can anyone speak to the ease/quality/pros/cons of using something like BFD or DFH via a keyboard controller versus a trigger kit like the Roland V-Drum?
I'd like to get some drums rolling (no pun intended) in my recordings and don't really feel like going the route of depending on loops or the manipulation thereof.

Next weekend my band wants to do some rough recordings of our songs so we can start pre-production on them. Of course drums will be first, and to a click but I have some questions about recording them into my mbox2.

And if so, what are your opinions on it? Could you recommend other drum loop libraries that are strictly loops?

I apologize if this has been discussed before. I'm wondering when it would be more practical to use a beta58 or 57 as opposed to an SM58? I'm thinking of purchasing one and using it on my snare top. I've got a couple SM58s and 57s already; should I save my money?
Thanks
