Hi all,
Back in March, my band did a quick demo of some of our newer stuff.
I just got some monitors, and they tell me how crappy the drum track really sounds, no matter what I do with it.
I need some serious advice on EQing the drum tracks I have to make them sound anything listenable.
It was recorded live in the room with only two overheads. There is a lot of bleed from all the other instruments, but that's fine. There was most likely clipping, but the snare just sounds awful. Whatever I do to the snare makes everything else sound off.
Obviously retracking would be better, but I don't have that kind of option now to put together 4 tracks to give out to clubs.
Suggestions are greatly appreciated. Here is an example of one of the songs' drum tracks. (Stereo Overheads)
