Forgive me if this seems like a stupid question. Is it possible to mic and record drums into my DAW without the use of outboard compressors and gates? In other words, can I record them raw (closely monitoring signal levels) and then add compression and gates to the recorded tracks later? I only have a small amount of money left and trying to filgure out what I should spend it on. I'm currently waiting on my Protools 9 to be delivered so that's what I'll be using to record with. Thanks!
