See the attached drawing of my bands current set up.
I'm planning on mic'ing the guitar players amp with a 57, run the vocals and bass direct, and have an SP B1 sitting where it's shown by the drummer in the corner.
The double lines surrounding the drummer, and near the bar at the bottom of the pic are partitions. I have many more available, so if it's beneficial to add them, I'm open for suggestions.
This is all just for practice purposes right now, so I'm not going to be super hung-up on levels, as long as we can all hear each other well. I will be tracking the session, but just for practice reasons. I'll record some songs 4 track, and others 1 track, just for space reasons on the mini-disks.
I'm thinking I should put the RNC on the B1, but I'm not sure where to start as far as settings. If anybody has any ideas for it, I'd really appreciate it. We live far enough away from each other, that time is a real disadvantage for us. So, hopefully I'll get some good suggestions here, so we don't have to cut into a whole practice.
He's got a fairly large kit. Pearl Export, I believe. Sabian and Zildgan cymbals, although I'm not sure where. The kit itself is only about a couple months old. It's on Gibraltar cage, with 7 shells total, and 6 cymbals, I think.
Any ideas to do it better than what I'm suggesting would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks,
