Alright, when I use my overhead mic on my drums (a samson c01) I put the fader level for that input at 0 (about 2/3 of the way up). It picks up so much signal that my gain needs to be turned all the way down or else I will get clipping.
The question is, should I have my gain higher and put the fader down, or keep it how it is, or does it just not really matter? I'd test it out more, but I can't really be playing drums all day because of noise issues.
Thanks for any input, I just want to get the best signal. I'm using a Yamaha MX 12/6 mixer by the way.
