Fair point, but when you're only doing 16 to 24 tracks to tape with a full band...Then I could see the value of this technique.

I see that some people actually use it as an OH pair (instead of XY/AB/etc.), along with close mics. Gotta try that sometime.
One time there was a huge shootout of different mic positions on overheads, the dryest/less room-y sounding one was the recorderman method, made me want to try it out.

I don't know if this is the one you're referring to, but useful nonetheless:

+1. Offer up compensation, and someone will make all the samples your heart desires.
That's it. It almost makes me want to experiment with that technique, so much more in your face and less room.

Dude, you need a serious slap in the face and a swift kick in the pants. Perhaps simply changing the way of asking would've given you a MUCH better response, but apparently your "values" are different from ours. You are being a total obnoxious dick and should probably stop.

It's shittay!
No. No no no no no. It doesn't work that way. Had you asked if any Recorderman samples existed, or if perhaps ask nicely if someone could help you out, but you essentially said, "give me recorderman samples kthx" and expect us to just give them to you. That's a lot of work, and to expect someone to do it for free just cause is simply absurd.

You have stumbled upon possibly the most generous forum I have ever seen in terms of people giving free advice/samples/help to others and whatever else.
Not only is the above comment devoid of any truth, it is also utterly hilarious.

Yup. Also, including "free samples" within the initial request just like that was definitely the icing on the cake
Hey new guy, let me show you how it's done:
Hey, guys, does anyone have a nice, cracky snare ala Ben Grosse laying around? I'd be willing to do a sample-swap with you, I have some tasty tom and kick samples laying around on my hard drive.
Something like ^^ that would have gotten you pretty damn far.

ahh my bad, i didn't realize that not everyone's parents taught them to take a day off out of their busy lives in order to set up a drum kit, mic it, and then make multi-velocity samples of each drum, all with the intention of sending them to a random/anonymous stranger on the andy sneap forum
next time i talk to my mom, i'll let her know how much she failed in raising me!
