Hi dudes
I´d love to discuss about Drum recording in general with you guys. linked with related problems and achievements, maybe we can exchange our knowledge and experience here.
As I began recording music in general, it wasn´t usual to programm drums for Metal, so it was natural and a matter of honor to try capturing the drumsound of a real kit. As I found the sneap forum and realized, that a lot of guys are working with samples, programs, ssd & stuff, I dived in to enhance my fund of experience (especially because I started earning money with some productions = saving time).
Now I´m here, made my experience with programming in recent years and realized the following...I HATE IT!!! Fuck yeah, I hate it!
I wanna hear the pulse of a talented human being again. I´m so sick of hearing those artificial drum fills! This is about my beloved music..METAL! Goddamn how impressed I were, as I heared Death´s ITP the first time. THIS IS IT! A good drummer is so precious.
It´s time to put some passion and effort in drum recording again! Let´s help each other out, dudes. I´m willing to help, if someone has questions about tracking drums. And I for my part have a lot of questions, because I´m far beyond being satisfied with my own drumsound. It´s a journey.
What is you story and experience about recording drums? What were the first steps? How much microphones do you need to capture a "good sound"? And..how often do you change the drumheads? Got some nice pictures of your miced drumset in the room and audio clips made there? Feel free to show it here!
Cheers,
Felix
