Drum Overhead Mics Time/Phase Alignment
Forums
So for years now, at least since DAWs have given us the ability to move audio files around by infinitesimal amounts within a time line, I've both read and talked to other engineers about time aligning the overhead drum mics to the Snare and Kick...

Suggestions for inexepensive drum overhead mics
Forums
So; I have around $300-400 that I can spend on purchasing some drum overheads for my home studio. I'd like to replace the cheap MXL 603's that I've been using with, I guess, "less" cheap ones. I've been reading some interesting things on different sites about the Avantone CK-1's and the Kel KM-1's.

Recording Drums - overhead mics
Forums
Hello!
I am reading, listening to other people records and trying to choose the best setup for my band for recording drums.
I have PreSonus firestudio project and SM57 mic. I was considering Shure Beta 52 for bass drum and for overheads I can buy used pair of sm81. SM57 would go for snare.

Kick drum, snare and overhead mic choices
Forums
Hi,
I am from Hong Kong. I will record drums for a hip hop /rock/funky band next week. I have to decide which mic to buy very soon. I used to record drum with 10mics and I hope to stick with it (kick x2, snare x2, toms x3, OH x2, plus a room mic). Below are the mics that I hope to decide with the tight budget I have got:

Budget Vocal and Overhead mics
Forums
Okay, I am looking for a nice vocal mic, for about £200. So far I have been looking at the RODE NT1000 & NT2A and the BLUE Bluebird.
I am also looking for a matched pair of condensers that could be used for drum overheads, but also acoustic miking. The RODE NT5 is what I have my eyes set on at the moment.
Am I on the right track?
