Im wondering for my studio so it wouldnt take up much space.

OK, I've posted the samples of the mics you were asking us about.

Here's some info:

Kick Drum:
Tama 22"
Beater Head: Evans (forget model)
Reso Head: Factory (with non-factory hole)
DW single pedal w/ felt (needs some TLC - it's rather noisy), no falam-slam on head.

Hello everyone,

Though this is my first post at recording.org, I have searched the forums for a couple years now. I have been a Pro Tools user for 3 years, and have been certified since May.

Hi. I would like to ask, what position of overheads is better by drum recording. I use X/Y type of overhead position, but in some recording seminars, thah lern to record drum kit as well, explain Stereo/Mono mode and 3 in 1 rule. I now that there are more another types, byt i want to lern about this (X/Y or Stero/Mono). Please explain which type is better.
Thanks

If you mic the top and bottom of a snare, should one of the mics have the phase inverted?

does it effect the phase depending on where the two mics are placed/ pointed?

thanks.

Hi everyone,
I am an audio engineering student and I was looking for some insight. I am doing a recording of a percussion ensemble concert on Saturday and one of the pieces is huge. I wanted to get as much insight/advice as possible before then.

Hey everyone, I recently spent all my money on a MacBook and a Firepod, and I need to wait a bit to get some mics. The only things I have available to me at the moment are 2 SM58s and 2 passive whirlwind DI. Soon I hope to upgrade to RODE NT5s.

So what microphone am I seeing in the kick drum around 1:40ish - i think i see a Senheisser 412, but what's that skinny almost rectangular microphone in there? Any idea? I see about 3 microphones the 412, the AKG D112 stuck just in the hole and then that skinny unknown microphone

Dear Engineers,

We are trying to record our jazz trio inside a small ..13'x19'x9' room.

looking at everything from the front, it's just like a 13x19 stage and if you are on the audience side looking at the stage, here how we are set up in the room:

Grand Piano on the left , Drums in the center, Upright Bass on the right

Hey there,

Sometime soon my band will start recording a album and I'm wondering weather it's worth tracking drums at a studio on 2" tape. I would get the tape transferred to digital format so I could load it up on Pro Tools and do everything else at my studio.
