    You probably knew this, but...

    I heard that he wiped off all the logo's on his cymbals except the Paragon line. Thats why their light gold! In his interviews he's very articulate! I think face to face with him I would start stuttering out of nervousness. :) Maybe some day I'll be fortunate enough to meet him. I would tell...

    Thats an awesome interview! How's he doing? Is he still Riding the BMW? My friend used to work at the shop up in Seattle that tuned his bike up. I know everybody will argue with me but I'm his biggest fan!!!! I have a Tama Banner in my studio with him playing on a dock I think in "Lakeside...

    Percussion

    Thanks,I bet that was a cool experience seeing those guys there. I know they finally changed the sound for DCI this year because the audio always sucked. I know Santa clara uses triggers to write their music. Have you heard of anyone close micing the quints? Maybe five clip on akg418s?

    Percussion

    I've read a lot about recording kits but what about percussion? I want to record a marching snare and quints.Maybe just a room mic will do? What about placement on the quints? Since they sit flat should I place the mic above or below? How far away? I would call Mike spiro or Santanas drummer...

    Yamaha or Pearl

    YEAH, BASSWOOD....WHAT THE HELL IS THAT :p Actually thats what my export is.I think it's an 1988 model. I was told it isn't bad for recording.I have had compliment's on my sound but it must be the gear :D Whatever your price range is make sure you exhaust all options. Play each kit if you can...

    Tom/snare mic / Overheads ...

    The standard is sm57 for toms...and they are cheap :) On the floor I use a beta 56.Snare is sm57 also(cant have too many) :D .O.H. I have Oktava 012's.Some suggest not using c1000's or likewise. How many channels do you have to run direct in? Maybe just go with the O.H.s in an xy pattern and...

    Yamaha or Pearl

    From what I hear Birch is the best for recording.I know this doesn't answer the question but I play an old Pearl export, so I'm bias.Yamaha makes good drums and I've read a lot of hype on the stage custom series.Hope this helps :)

    Tried recording friends drums, sounded like poop

    I'm not sure.I have a yamaha mx400 into three delta 44's. The pre's in the Yamaha aren't bad but not pro.either. Try posting in the souncards forum if you haven't already.

    Overprotective?

    I had a set of Paiste that had a bad finish.If you choked a cymbal the fingerprint would literally etch itself. If you want to keep your cymbals new, handle them with care but it's alright to play them :)

    Recording kick drum

    Sorry I record with a D112 but with some E.Q..... Well, it's ok to me. Why dont you spend more money on a kick drum mic like an E/V?

    please, don't kill me for this question

    I run straight to the mixer.My pre's are OK.The compression is added after mix so it's not over compressed.I have seen alot of compression on the bass and these home made speaker mics to pump up the bass also. I prefer to get the rawest recording possible. I'm no pro or even close but I do have...
