Re: Andrew Yang
I think it’s crucially important to argues about whether Yang will end up with 2% of the total Primary vote or just 1%.

Re: de bait
A multi party system works in a system where the winner needs to form a governing coalition (or at least ‘works’ more often)
In America’s winner take all Presidential system it’s a terrible idea.

Re: de bait
the problem with that point of view is, in my opinion, that it veers dangerously close to a "both sides are the same so it doesn't matter' argument
which is demonstrably bullshit
Trump is proving how desperately it matters

Re: de bait
I might add that we didn't see Warren "against" Harris on the same stage.
Once we do, things could look quite different between them in the race.

I think the pandering to the centre, and especially to imaginary convinceable Trump voters, is starting to fall apart; as the failed strategy that it always was. Warren clearly won night one. Harris clearly won night two. Castro and Booker had reasonably strong showings. the rest can go away now. Ex...

Re: Drum Recording Dissertation - Overheads And Phase Coherency
People are always looking for reasons why it “won’t work”
It works
You adjust what you need to adjust; including asking the player to play appropriately and sometimes to slightly move some items if it doesn’t throw her off.
They could record Keith Moon with 3 mics.
You can do it too.

I don't agree that their stance on some major issues were "the same", just as Biden isn't where Warren is on some issues that are major for me
but still, whoever wins the primary gets my vote.

Re: When A Band's References Don't Fit...
Looking at it another way:
Is it a major label release?
Will they have millions of disappointed fans if this record is screwed ip?
Let them have their clashing reverb or whatever they want.
And they will either like it or they’ll think it sounds bad and you can explain WHY

Re: Drum Recording Dissertation - Overheads And Phase Coherency
Originally everyone had a single overhead (and probably a bass drum mic) What differed was what was added next as inputs (and maybe tracks) became more available and rock music dictated closer more immediate sounds. Some people added a snare mic to those two, and some people (me included) only added...

I hate when people call it “Glyn Johns” because with some variations it’s pretty much how EVERYONE was doing it. Glyn’s thing, such as it is, started (as did we all) with a single overhead straight up over the centre of the kit and looking down. Then at one point he added a mic on the low Tom side a...

Re: Drum Recording Dissertation - Overheads And Phase Coherency
here's another session where you can see the distance a bit better.
Although this sort of thing varies, of course, with the room and the drums and the desired outcome.
in this rare instance I'm actually using a high hat mic... crazy!

yes, I just call them Drums Left and Right. (because that's where they usually end up) your setup looks similar, as long as the polar pattern of those little mics is fairly wide. you seem more aimed at the snare, whereas I have them looking in at the toms and sort of through the toms at the snare. b...
