Hey guys, I wrote a blog post about recording drums on my studio website. I want to help out bands who record themselves, be it demos or proper albums.

Drum Heads mega question

Submitted by ThirdBird on Thu, 12/17/2009 - 15:57

I am about to rehead both of my drumsets! (hasn't been done in awhile)

I don't know what heads I want to use on them. I am a big fan of remo, that is all I have ever used, but would not be opposed to try Evans or Aquarian. I am also looking for general tuning tips/recommendations too.

I have a couple of questions on drum heads. I'm not a drummer, but I own a Mapex M Birch set for the studio and I've been working on trying to get it sound as good as possible. I'm recording mostly folk, alt. country, jazz, etc. The two drummer that I am recording most have a pretty light touch - though I have a couple of heavy hitters in now and then.

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

A question for all you Studio Drummers. I run a small studio and record mostly Hard Rock and Metal bands. What are the best heads to suggest for my clients for the recording sessions?
