Audience vs. Drummer Perspective :D

[Joel4662]

But if you have a real doublebass drumset isn't the snare in the middle? So we have to imagine everyone records with a real doublebass set instead of douplepedals.

But then you have to put the two bass drums on different sides

automate the pan so people have no idea whats going on

Gahahaha

drummer's perspective.

and the snare is between the drummers legs... so from the perspective of the drummer, it IS in the middle

It varies whether ur a lefty or right handed player, so you are probably best just doing what suits you and your clients best. blink-182's Take Off Your Pants and Jacket is audience perspective and that sounds good. I personally mix based on how i feel on the day, alot of the time the tom fills help me to decide depending on how i hear what im trying to achieve in my head.

Drummer. I've tried it the other, more logical (due to panning the guitars as they are positioned on stage), way but it was a total mindfuck.

 

[selke61]

I always have and will do drummers perspective. Just sounds wayy better to me

The only time I do audience is when tracking a lefty drummer haha
