hey there,

I must mixing a musical with a rockband. so I must buy some new MIcs for the Drumkit. The Drumkit will be behind a Drumshield. It's a small Jazz Drumset and must sounded a little bit Funky ! So, what Mics you advice me for the Set ? Kick, Snare, HH, 1 Tom and 1 Floor Tom and 2 Overheads.

Thanks and greatings from Germany

:D

anyone who remembers my post from a few weeks ago about recording drums may recall that I'm in a band and our drummer LOVES drum mics.
He has a huge set, but his playing isn't super loud (hes not smashing the heads, just hitting them)

I know there are lots of solutions for the snare hi-hat problem - but I want to ask if anyone has tried this:

Hey guys,

Was wondering if any one knows of a decent tutorial I can take a read up on about how to make samples trigger upon and event from input of an instrument such as electric drum kit in Nuendo or Cubase?

Hope you can help, google didn't find much on it, although I don't know the correct term for what I am looking for which could be why.

Stevie Wonder recorded many of his parts through a Mu-Tron which sound like an automated wah. I noticed that there are two tracks on "Songs in the Key of Life" where the drums are being put through a mu-tron on the toms and snare. ("All Day Sucker" and "Black Man")

Does anyone have any general tips on what is the basis of a good drum room for a loud as . . drummer?

forever and longer ive only had the displeasure of having one m audio nova to hang above the drum kit and run it thru a PreSonus tube pre, thus my drum recordings cost 200$ (minus the kit..).

I recently posted in regards to recoridng my bands in EP half in the studio the other half at my place and doing the final mix back in the studio am currently in the process of editing the drum takes and wondering whether i should align the drums so that they are PERFECTLY in time or whether to not interfere with the natural human feel...

I'm getting tired of several of my cheap/makeshift stands - particularly those I'm using for Micing drums. I have good stands for overheads and vocal mics, but most of the stands for getting into hard to reach places and old cheap stands that I've hacksawed and jerry-rigged. Time to buy something good and sturdy.

Is it a good idea to buy two different kick mics, to record two kick drums then sample the best one and replace sounds of the other one? I already have Electro-Voice ND 868 and I like it. So I am thinking of getting either a second one or an SM91 for example.

Hi,

I'm just looking for advice on how to set up recording for a drum kit through the Digi 003 rack. I've only ever recorded two tracks at once through the Digi 003 so need a bit of advice about recording a whole kit.
