recording drums w/console in same room

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?

Using bathroom or laundry as mic room/ echo chamber ?

Forums

Hi guys

i was watching a documentry about Tin Pan Alley and how they created the echo chamber by recording in the bathroom, because of the reverb coming off the chiprock.

if wanting to record at home, would you recommend using these technic or can you give me any advice into creating a affordable echo chamber mic room.

cheers

A few tips for a "Small Room" Digital Home Studio.

Most of my friends who have Home Studio's have their garage converted into something very nice and costly that looks like a Star Wars space ship with lights off their racks glowing in the room with a computer that could probably run a space ship. I don't have that pleasure or that kinda cash . But each year I record at least 4 CD's and I have yet to hear 1 finished song from them.

Liquid Electric Bass or Broomstick Bass

Hello guys
I 've recently bought Spectrasonic's Trilogy for my bass sounds.Since I'm not a bassplayer I'm looking for some inspiration as far as bass grooves and this way I'm also thinking about purchasing some other (phrase based) Bass VST
I've done little bit of a research and there are 4. products which I might be able to use.

how to use reverb, room etc... in the mix?

hello,

i'm just interested in how you use reverb, room etc... in the mix at drums, guitars, bass, vocals. how do you work with the "mainreverb" and what kind of verb-fx you use on snare or kick or other instruments.

how many different reverb-Fx you use in a track?

i found out that this is one point why my tracks do not sound as they should.
