Hi!

I'm trying to record drumset for few songs (demos). I got three mics for overheads. Which mics would you choose (recommend) to use for overheads: 2x

Im looking to record drums for a song...
i have 4 mics to work with.
where are the best places to place the mics?
the drum set is a basic 5 piece set with hi hat, ride, crash, and splash

Hi All,
I did a search for the subject I'm about to ask but no go. So here is my question: I plan on buying a electronic drum set that has MIDI outs and I would like to record the drums to MIDI so that later I can run the MIDI file with Drum kit from hell superior. Is there any program that will record your playing and save it as a MIDI file? Thanks

I've got a very good drummer coming in three weeks to lay down some drums to a scratch track I've prepared. I've got a pretty good room (16 X 23 feet with a ceiling vaulted from 10 to 13 feet) and the following mics:

2 X SM57
Neumann U89
2 X Crown CM700
RODE NT4 stereo
AKG D112
2 X Audix D4

The kit is a nice Gretch 4 piece.

I have an SR-16 which i think sounds quite good and am recording some Heavy Rock tracks using Pro Tools via my new POD XT Live.

(If you want to get great guitar sounds and a unit thats easy to program via Line 6 edit using your mouse so you dont have to keep reaching down to the floor to tweak nobs and punch buttons get one of these!)

ok i have no actual "studio" when i record, i just have my room(I'm 17 for christ sake). and i feel it has sh*tty acoustics for recording drums...but dont ask.

In theory it would seem I have everything we need to record our drummer:

• Complete drum mike kit (one for every drum + overheads)
• 12 channel mixer
• Computer with E-MU 0404 and loaded with Fruity

What is the recommened headphones for drummers to wear so they can still hear the track while playing the drums.

Hi Guys,
