Any critique on this mix would be hugely appreciated; in particular bass and drums
Forums
Mixing bass through headphones is hard, imo. I watched a youtube video recently that said it should generally sit at the level of the drum kick providing a kind of 'tail' from the initial kick drum 'thud'.
I'm not sure if I've managed to..?

My latest instrumental.. trying to nail the drums. How do they sound...?
Forums
Hey all,
I've been working on a new instrumental. Well, it's actually a re-work of a track I first attempted 20-odd years ago. Anyhow, what does everyone think? Have I nailed it?.. I'm trying to get the drums to sound 'decent'.. Might have over embellished in a few places..
At usual, I'm mixing on my trusty DT-990 pro headphones.
Thanks,
Ben.

It's my first post on the forum so - Hello!
I'm starting this thread to show my journey with learning how to record and mix drums in my home studio (and some bit of music productions too), so any advice and tips are more than welcome!
Here is my latest recording:
Some grooves inspired by my almost half-year stay in Central African Republic.
Cheers!

Over compressing timpani drums
Forums
Here is a good example of what over compressing drums sounds like.
Beautiful setup and performance but you can hear the compression attack and release is set to high.

Inmusic brands aquires BFD Drums
Forums
I found this out via a promo that BFD is under new ownership. Its a weird way to find out considering i own about 3/4 or more of the entire BFD collection. I would think they'd send an email to all registered customers.

Nostalgic look back. Me on Drums.
Forums
Morning from sunny West Yorkshire UK,
I am not a drummer, I do play drums though. I picked it up when I was 41. I practiced many hours a day initially on a Roland TD10 kit then this wonderful Gretsch Renown Maple kit with A Zildjian Pro cymbals. Sadly the Gretsch were sacrificed in the many moves my family and I have made.
