Re: Drum Recording Dissertation - Overheads And Phase Coherency

It’s also that using all condenser mics on the drums gives you that more complete faster transient to begin with.

Re: Drum Recording Dissertation - Overheads And Phase Coherency

Interesting. But you CANNOT see where the 4038s are in that shot.
But the two Gefell are pretty clear.

Re: Drum Recording Dissertation - Overheads And Phase Coherency

Wow, super punchy yet spacious. Did you mix this? Was there any additional reverb on the drums besides the room mic's? I mixed it, thanks. I'll be honest that I don't 100% remember, but i very much doubt there's any added reverb on the drums. it's rare for me. here's an even 'bigger' sound (which c...

Re: Drum Recording Dissertation - Overheads And Phase Coherency

I love these types of threads. You have any more recent drum tracking stories weedy? Also, if you were recording a grunge-ish indie/rock/punk type of band, would you still go with your 5 [4-6] mic setup, or would you opt for using more close mics on everything?

Re: Drum Recording Dissertation - Overheads And Phase Coherency

Interestingly, Eric Bazilian did a Swedish TV interview about One Of Us, and in it was this photo of him in the house, where you can just make out, behind him, the two STC 4038s positioned against the front wall (to the porch)and pointed at the (out of frame) drums so you can see their height and, m...

So an imaginary ‘super majority’ that includes right wing democrats doesn’t in any way guarantee that they VOTE “like Democrats”.

Re: WTF now?

For years we’ve been saying that Republiklans in Congress aren’t “doing their jobs” of oversight and consent.
And that’s true.

But that’s why it’s at LEAST equally important to expect Democrats to do that JOB, when they have the House now, whether people think it’s politically expedient or not.

I keep reading some version of : “don’t call the Nazis ‘nazis’ or ‘racists’ or ‘antisemites’ or ‘criminals’ because then you’ll never “win over” their supporters.

It should go without saying that that’s idiotic.

But it somehow doesn’t.

But again that ‘no sauce’ trip is a particular thing. It’s not more ‘authentic’ as mich as it’s a regional attitude. Texas bbq is typically no sauce. KC doesn’t disdain sauce.
