right so I need some advice.
When I am going to record drums I am going to have 2 overheads and a kick drum mic as well as others but what I am not sure about is the others.
I have 2 toms and I was originally planning on putting these 2 pretty cheap tom mics I got with a drum mic set a while ago on them, and then put a es-57 (sm57 copy) on the snare. However I recently bought an sm58 for vocals and apparently that is very similar to a 57 so I was wondering whether I should use it and how should I fit it in?
I was thinking also about the possibility of adding other mics to the set up for hi hat or bottom of the snare or something like that. The other mics I have are: 2 behringer c-2 condenser microphones, one pretty cheap snare mic that came in that set, and 2 58 copies. Should I use them? And bare in mind that I am using a tascam us-1800 interface so I only have 8 xlr inputs and 6 of those will already have been used up on the other mics.
Thanks.
