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...

Hey, total noob here, well at least as far as electronic recording.



I just purchased Logic Pro Studio with Apogee Duet for I/O.



I was planning on using my Alesis SR-16 drum machine through one of Apogee's 1/4" inputs but it does not work. I've tried all the various jacks and all I am getting is some faint distorted audio.

it seems the majority of my snare recordings are junk. heh. ive been recording the same snare for the past 3 years, well the same kit for that matter... just got new cymbals last year though.. but anyways.. its a 14 x 6.5 ludwig supraphonic. it sounds real awesome live, and ive spent lots of time tuning, and always upkeep on that stuff... so i know it sounds good in person at least.

I can't quite make the "RecorderMan" overheads setup for drums (Glyn Johns-inspired modified spaced pair) react like it's supposed to. I've seen lots of pictures on the web and the now-famous YouTube video, but nothing very detailed. If anyone who's had success with this setup could take pictures, or has pictures they'd like to post, I'd appreciate seeing them.

drum software

I've never used any type of drum software before and was wondering how realistic is it, and is it easy to use? (I've never really used midi before either). I've read some reviews on ez drummer, drumcore, and bfd and am not yet sure what I'd be getting into. I just don't want to waste money on something I may not use. If it helps, the music I do ranges from mellow acoustic to hard rock.

I dont know what to do?

When i'm recording my drums,i record also the midi,and i have a problem with latency!

I have my Ddrum 4 hoocket up with my EMU card through midi in and the latency is set to minimum 2ms and when i list it on the monitors there is no latency,but when i record the signal it records almost with a whole second of latency or something like that:0

Hey,

I plan on tracking drums soon and I was wondering what people like for drum heads. I've got Evans G2 Coated on my toms and snare. for my kick I'm using an Aquarian Super Kick II for my beater side and a Remo Weatherking Coated Amb.

How will my kick sound change if I take off the resonant side head off?
