I suppose it depends much more about the kit itself, the drummer, and then the typical room /mics and such. But then there is also the style of music. Heavy rock drums take a bit more to get huge and up front, but there are tools to deal with that. In my experience, the toughest thing to get...

Seriously, I struggled for a while. It just took time to take a step back before things got easier....

Take a breath....Or burn your shit! LOL

It just takes a bit of time sitting back man. I feel you may have been overthinking stuff. Down the wormhole...

Welcome to the forum guys!

Sounding really good man! 8-)

I suppose it comes down to availability of a good room and what it is one is looking for. I have a fairly large room that is treated just for acoustic drums. That being said, I am also enhancing them with samples. SSD Trigger 2 with many sample packs, that I suppose would be a blend of...

I have a 9 year old daughter. She thinks similar to me oddly enough. It's quite precious. We have the porch lights off and saving all of the candy for ourselves. Fuck your typical halloween suburbanite weirdos. We have our own smores ready in the fireplace. LOL

And I will be working in Boulder in a couple months. We should do sushi again! 🍣

Thats what I was thinking. Maybe I'll also try the KSM141 overheads in my drum room.

Anyone have any experience recording a violin? Any suggestions?
