Hi guys,
This is my first post on here so I dunno if this has already been answered.
I am currently working on a death metal album with a friend and we have no drummer and after long debate we came to the conclusion that we're just gonna have to programme our drums, much to my dismay.
So, I wanted to ask you guys is there any mixing techniques to get that old school death metal drum sound? Think Death's Leprosy or Spiritual Healing. I like when the kick is audible but not too clicky, kind of like a thud you know? I love those boomy toms too. Is there any EQ's I should know about? Compression? Reverb?
What way should I pan each piece of the kit and what levels should I set them at?
Just some starter points would be cool then I think I could take it from there and just go with what I think sounds good.
Oh and we're running EzDrummer DFH through Cubase 4.
Thanks in advance!
