My band will be doing a DIY recording again soon. Main concern, obviously, is the drums. My last recording I did in this room came out pretty muddy and I'm afraid it has to do with the OH's and no sound treatment.
Now, I'll probably catch shit for this, but we don't have proper treatment. Right now we have a bunch of carpet and the layer of foam that lays under the carpet at our disposal.
Don't know exact dimensions of the room, but it's about 20'x20' or so. 2 walls are concrete (cinder block) and 2 walls are drywall.
Is there any "go-to" areas where we should be placing our "panels"? Or should we not even worry about it at all?
There was also talk of possibly forking out $ to record drums at a real studio. But I'm going to do a test song first. I love the challenge of trying to 1-Up my mixes.
