Hello all.
I want to record my drums using a trigger & mic combo. I want to trigger the drums & mic the cymbals. How do I get all these multiple inputs into my computer to record simultaneously? What software & devices will I need to record & edit my drums with?

My wife wants another snare stand to practice with. It's not like this is a moving part or anything, so I may just go with something relatively cheap. But I hate cheap hardware, so I thought I would fish for comments on a good snare stand. Throw in other comments about who makes the best drum hardware: cymbal stands, HH, kick pedals, etc.

Well, its been a while! Anyway, here's the deal. Went to record a drum track today. Its a 4 mic, Glynn Johns type setup as far as micing. A pair of AT2020's overhead, an AT4040 on kick, and an MD421 on snare. These are running into a Mackie 1202 VLZ mixer for pre's only, and out the sends on the Mackie into a Delta 44.

Has anyone done a sound comparison with the Shure beta 52a with a pg52? I have the opportunity to pick up the 6 piece PG set for close to the same price as a single beta 52a. Opinionsout there?

Hi all,

Can any recommend a software for Cubase 4 or 5 compatability to do synthesizing effects on drum and vocal analog recorded tracks. robic sounding vocal stuff and cool drum intro stuff etc. I downloaded a demo version of Alchemy(?) but couldn't figure out how to get it to do this even though they say it can. They have a cool demo video.

I'm looking for cheap (50-100 dollar range for each mic) overhead and bass drum mics to record my drum set. I already know what I'm going to be using for the snare (sm57 of course).
Thanks

Hey guys, Right now I'm trying to record drums, but I just cant get the sound I'm looking for. My kit is in a 10x11 room with heavy foam and blankets. The rest of my house is completely open. I was thinking of moving my drums to the living room. OK, so heres my question, does the room really have a big effect on a close miked drum kit? Should I move my kit to record?

Doing searches for the best drum pad controller for BFD2 looks like it may be the Korg padKontrol. I actually want to use this with UBS direct.
