Glad to hear it's working properly now for you!pappy999 said:Cleaned it about 7 times....works great now. I am recording my first analog drums on Sunday. Any tips?
yes i agree.The Ghost of FM said:A matched pair of stereo overheads with small capsule, flat response condensers; A dynamic Mic aimed at the snare and hats and another on the kick. Use 4 tracks on the reel to reel to track it and then mix to taste after. That will give you enough room to add some bass and rhythm guitars for the beds before you bounce or transfer.
pappy999 is using a TSR-8 which is a two head deck and won't allow him to do what you're suggesting.Tim Gillett said:To add, dont even look at the meters. They are for avoiding distortion. You are wanting distortion.
Listen to the sound. Ignore the meters....in this case only.
Cheers Tim

With a 3 head deck, where the engineer can listen to the third head as the talent plays live, yes; I'd agree to that being a viable method of quickly achieving the desired amount of harmonic distortion.
