Hi James
Some years ago you posted pics regarding your recording session at chimaira's reharseal space..
I loved those pics but I lost them.
Now I'm very curious about the drums mics placement because I'll start a recording session very soon.
Could you post the 2-3 pics you posted? It whould be very cool
Thank you so much

p.s.
Great work with Daath and Blood Promise!

well that recording was done under far less than ideal circumstances... pretty much guerrilla tactics, kind of a ghetto "git-'er-done" scenario. i wouldn't really try to emulate it. here's the only pics i currently have uploaded.

Cool, thanks for the pics!

I love seeing stuff like this. Seeing the process. Seeing the equipment.
I am disabled, so seeing a practice room reminds me of some very good times that I have had in the past .... I think that I am the oldest dude still in his early thirties!! Already reminiscing ...
I've gotta get my studio together before I geaux out of my mind!

Wow, are those really brand new drum heads? I didn't know drummers did that.

I just noticed the Motu equipment in the rack.
Is that something you used to use, or do you still use it?
If yes to either - how is the quality of Motu A/D/A converters, etc?
Thanks

Scott

Thank you so much James!
Probably it wasn't an ideal recording but it's ever good to see equipment
I had only the first pic so I didn't find all the cymbals mics. I'm interested because I read the "natural drums micing technique" thread on Andy's forum and you explained how to point the cardioids for a spaced OH micing... very good thread!
