Hey folks,
Just finished tracking in the studio last night the drums (as well as scratch bass & guitar) for my band's new CD - here are the individual drum tracks we recorded:
1 Kick
2 Overheads
2 Snare (Top/Bottom)
3 Toms (High, Mid and Low)
1 Hihat
1 Room mic
My question is this - we will likely mixdown the tracks ourselves (unless we can come up with some more cash to hire an engineer - not likely though) - how would you guys pan these drum tracks for a natural sounding kit? Or would you keep them in mono? Our music is straight-up Led Zeppelin-y rock, if that matters.
Thanks,
Chris
