I'm in the market for a half decent one, due to space (or lack of), budget £400-£500, whats the best? second hand is fine, has anyone had any positive experience with electric kits? thanks,

Josh

I got toontracks EZ drummer with the drum kits from hell plugin .

Butttt i can't get it working with Pro Tools, and yes i installed Fxepansion vst to rtas adapter. I still don't know how to get it working.

If anyone has any idea i would really appreciate you helping me out

I have an 8x5 foot American flag behind my drum kit.

I was thinking I can put some kind of sound absorber behind the flag. I figure the flag absorbs an infinitesimal amount of higher frequencies.

What can I "hide" behind it that might take some more ring out of the cymbals while allowing the toms and snare to have some air?

i am looking for mics to mic a drum kit for a really good recording. we play punkish/scremo/alternative and the drummer hits hard, our buget is about 1.5 thousand. can anyone help me out?

OK. I'm recording my first band. I need help. I've never recorded drums before. I've done instruments and vocals, but never drums. Here's my setup

Logics Studio

Audix DB5a kit:
-1 Kick Mic
-2 tom mics
-1 floor tom mic
-1 snare mic

Audio-Technica AT2020
Audio-Technica AT3035

Please tell me which is the best studio drum set for recording rock music.
Thank you all

hello everybody!

i was told that i'd better use compressor for Overheads when recording drum kit?

what do think of that?

I'm after any advice for my upcoming drum recording.
The room is carpeted and is actually a classroom.. and sounds like a classroom too!
I still believe I can get a good result if I'm careful. I was wondering if it's worth placing the drums on solid wood rather than just carpet.. thinking it might brighten and focus the sound a little.

So right now i have a PDP 6 piece LX series kit. It sounds decent right now with a Audix Kick mic and a Shure sm58 overhead. But i need more.

I was thinking about these for now.

Kick- AKG D 112

Snare- Sm57

But what i want to know is do i need to mic all 4 of my toms or could i get away with using a good overhead?

I have recently purchased Drumkit from Hell Superior. I have Cubase SL for pc. 2.5 GB Ram and 200 GB hard drive. I have having trouble loading it.
I have loaded the 10 CD's onto my computer already.
