Can someone please explain or provide a link to ...

I need to know exactly what drum triggering is.. i have an idea.. but.

I know that triggering is MIDI --- I use midi alot...

but for instance.. i record LIVE drums.. as a whole session.. now i want to take these live drums and trigger them so i can further define the clearity and dynamics of the drums themselve..

Hi everybody,

I'm new here but I recogn a lot of professionalty and experienced people in this forum!

I produce drum and bass dance music in italy and when it come to master(in house or pro-studio)is always odd.

I went to a U2 concert on Friday and I saw that they were using Audio-Technica drum overheads. Does anyone know which ones they use?

Everyone else was looking at the stage show, but I was looking at the mics -am I ill?

Anyway, the reason I ask is that they always have an amazing live drum and bass sound -I love that feeling of being slammed against a brick wall!

Hi everyone. My question is if I have not so great drums and no specific booth to put them in and I just have SM57s through a digi002, what can i do to get the best sound i can. Any Help would be great.

Hey guys can you please let me know what the different tunings are for drums (typically) is.
Like for instance, I know a drummer who learned to play in band back in high school. His teacher taught them how to tune to a jazz kit set-up. But now adays he plays mostly metal, and he still uses the same drum tuning he has asways used.

is it possible to record drums with an mbox? i know that some sort of external i/o device would be required to have enough inputs for all the drums mics, since the mbox only has two, but is there a device that does this?

if this wouldnt work, is drum triggering an alternative? what equipment would i need to purchase to make this happen?

I like my KM184's but would someone suggest an alternative for a more aggressive sound(deep lows, pointed, snappy). I'm going for that NuMetal drum sound like Korn, Tool, Godsmack, etc.

The KM184's are bright enough, but have a warm, round, woody quality that boxes out my snare a bit on drum OH's.

Looking for any Alesis dm5 users----got lots of questions about the module.

I was wanting to know about recording drum triggers.Our drummer uses them live and wants to use them for recording,he uses an Alesis DM5 unit triggered by Roland acoustic drum triggers.My problem is i dont kno what to record?Should i record the MIDI or the audio coming off the DM5.I am told that if i use the MIDI i can replace the little parts like triplets that sometimes dont trigger correctly

ive been listening to a few albums (deftones, mmw) and notice that they seperate the toms, mounted tom far left and floor tom far right in the stereo image. i was just wondering, should i be trying to capture ONLY cymbals in my overhead mics if i want to do that in a mix?
