Make a Professional Recording Studio
Hello guys, I would like to make a professional studio to record my drums. I already have an acoustically treated room and I wanna know what mics, preamplifiers, monitors, audio interfaces, mixer, etc. to buy?
I would like to obtain Weckl sound. What do you suggest me to buy? Thanks.

Recording drums to sound big in a small room for hard rock/metal projects
I would like some feedback. I just finished an iso room in my studio to track in. I’m a drummer and I will never have the square foot or height to track ambient drums. I’m ok with that and I’m fine with adding room post tracking. I guess the biggest challenge I face is getting the drums sound big enough for hard rock/metal projects.
Drum recording, one-channel compressor
Here's a quick one: One-channel compressor. Should I use it on the snare, the kick, the room, a mono overhead, or where else? where would you use it? (on the way in)
Thanks!
