How do mix and compress drum ¯\(°_o)/¯?
Seriously now.
Anyway I got a nice solid drum track going here. The drummer in this band quit and we were forced to do a different rout. We had midi'd the drums in guitar pro, made a solid track and imported the midi to EZDrummer DKFH. Then because I have got shit programs and PC, I ripped the song each layer. Recorded just EZdrummers kick, snare top and bottom, overhead, toms, room layer. Anyway. After that I did some massive sampling. Changed the snare, kick and toms. Redid the hi-hat and overheads. Made the sounds more....what it should be.
But I have no idea how to compress drums. I use adobe audition, and the compression effects suck on that and i can't afford to BUY any VSTs. and i'm not sure about how to do compression. This is my first serious project and i'm just learning about attack/release and all that jazz.
So my question is, what do you suggest for a good hard rock drums? What kind of compression, and do you guys know any good compression VSTs or EQ ones or reverb? Any help would be great.
