gargling blasters
I'm going to be putting some drums down on Sunday with very limited resources and wondered if you could give me a little advice. The only equipment available to me is an SM57 and an Octava MK-219, both going into a Line 6 Toneport UX2 and then Reaper.
I've been thinking,and the best setup in my mind seems to be the 57 over the drummer's shoulder pointed at the snare,with the Octava out front as a room mic. I'm thinking about 6-10 feet away at about chest height, probably with the -10db rolloff switch in use.
How does this sound? Any better ideas,or suggestions? I'll obviously experiment on the day but it'd be nice to know if I'm thinking along the right lines.
