lol. the room is not treated and I have no clue what the dimensions are and its not whats making the snare sound so good
its a bit bigger than a drumset, carpet floor, carpet walls, carpet ceiling
hahaha. and some wooden closets. thats all.
The reverb bus is pretty loud and the whole drumbus is crompressed hard too, thats what makes it sound so dense. the room mics are compressed so damn hard with some kind of saturator (some free plug..), eq'd and I put a small verb on that too, cus the room is siomply dead.
don't be afraid to use lots of reverb. I was always scared to muddy up the mix because of too much verb, but reverb is sooo important. it makes sounds come alive. its because your ears dont normally hear like a close mic normally would, its just not natural.
when I was listening to this when recording I instantly had to think about dimmu borgirs puritania. the drums are soo fucking tasty. and check out the reverb they have..., holy shit! ..
