Just started tracking a friends band and wanted to see what ya'll thought about the drum sounds I've got thus far... I'm using some new pres (Seventh Circle Audio N72's) and am pretty pleased with the results thus far. Here are the samples:
Just drums:
Same track, with Scratch Guitars:
Both of the samples above have absolutely no processing on them (the drums at least), I spent a ton of time making sure it was all in phase before tracking and the samples are just me setting basic levels for everything. Setup is as follows:
Kick In - D6 going through an N72
Kick Out - Beta 52 going through an N72
Snare Top - I5 going through an N72
Snare Bottom - Unidyne through an N72
Rack Tom - SM57 through Alesis Studio 32 Mixer
Floor Tom - SM57 through Alesis Studio 32 Mixer
Hi Hat - SM7B through Alesis Studio 32 Mixer
OH's - C451B's through a pair of UA710's
Room's - Sony ECMF56's through Alesis Studio 32 Mixer
Thoughts? Any suggestions for improvement? Thanks a ton!
