I'm recording drums 8 tracks into logic 7.
what is the difference of bouncing every channel thru a singel mic preamp
after they were recorded vs recording every track with its own mic preamp?
I'm going thru a digimax 96 thru a 2408 mk2.
ive been using my peavey vmp 2 tube pre for the overheads two mk 12
and an mp 20 for kick and snare.

I own a small semi private studio in which i've done a lot of & gotten pretty good with recording & engineering vocals, electronic/digital gear and Guitars. However i have been asked by a friend to consider recording a project with a rock band using all real instruments and have no experience at all with Micing drums. I have listed my euipment below..

I'm preparing to produce my first of many, more following, live recording sessions in the studio. This a transition I've been looking forward to and want to start off on the best foot possible. I will be recording live bass, guitar, keyboard and drums. I believe I'm fine for everything except for the drums. I've been looking to better equip my mic cabinet and now I'm being forced to.

Hey. Bare with me and my ignorance for I have just started delving into the world of recording on PC. Well, I should say in general. I've only fooled around a bit with analog. Things seem to be going fine for me as far as recording vocals and instruments... but I was thinking about recording drums today. How do I go about recording drums...

hello...does anybody have tips on tracking a drumkit that's in the same room as the console? I've tracked drums many times, but never while I'm in the same room. The room is about 700 sq feet. Mic placement shouldn't be too hard and once I get good test sounds to tape, I can just monitor the meters.

what do you guys think?

I mentioned in other posts about this project I'm working on in PT and 10 drum tracks.

So how do I use beat detective on 10 tracks? I've used it on bass, and piano with much success, but when it comes to drums, I'm baffled, even though it's probably the easiest way to use it.

I hope I'm in the right forum for this...

I'm recording an acoustic drum kit into Samplitude V8 via a MOTU 2408 MKII.

I want to add-to/replace recorded drum sounds with samples like I hear about everyone else doing who records rock/metal drums.

What do I need to buy. triggers? software? sampler?

I have no clue. Help..please!

hey all,

my first time posting here...so a big hello to all...cool forums you've got here!

i've just started putting some of my own ideas into recordings lately and have had one problem i've run across so far (i'm sure i'll run into many more in the future...but these forums are definitely helping to prevent that)

Hello studio freaks!

I`ve got a Korg polysix (whick i love, hehe) and would like to know if it is possible to syncing the arp`s tempo from the DIN out of my novation drum station (it uses ROLAND`s tr900 and tr808 connection at 24ppqn) to the ARP in of my 26 year old Korg polysix!

Is there a DIN to JACK lead for the polysix?

Thanks!
