Hey Guys,
i was wondering, what kind of setup do you use when it comes to micing your average 5 piece kit? In my experience i think i've always found using 4 the best because i've had issues with phase sometimes using to many.
In other words, 1 on the kick, snare, and 2 overheads. I've tried micing the toms individually, but i've just never had very pleasing results even when muckin around for hours on mic placement and different mic types. Either way...
What about you guys? I'd like to see what your guys setup usually is like...
And also, is it just me, or are those drum mic kits quite dodgy for recording drums? Because i've used a shure set before, didn't sound very nice at all.
