DropD, The ATM25 is a good mic. I have read so many posts where people slam any other kick mic but a D112 or Beta52. I tried both of these, along with several others including the ATM25, before I bought my kick mic. I didn't like the way the Beta52 made my drum sound too "clicky" and I...

Let me guess sonusman, you are a bass player? :) sb

King, I agree with CJ on this - get the drums sounding as good as possible in the room you have and run with it. I think the goal here is to use strengths of the mics you have to achieve the best outcome. For example, if you have a mic that has an extended high-frequency response, I would try...

Robert, The Sennheiser 504 was replaced with the 604. Same mic but a new number. Those marketing guys must stay up nights to come up with these things. Go figure. I bought a "3 pack" of the 604s from Sam Ash for $298. They come with the clip-on mounts for the drums. They are convenient...

I guess it depends on the drum sound you are after, but you you could go with: Snare - the B57 Kick - an EV868 (or insert your Kick mic of choice here) Overhead - some sort of condenser mic, small or large diaphram. A Rode NT1 or Shure SM81 would work well. You could try a pair of condensers...

My 2c ... I had the opportunity to try a bunch of kick drum mics before I bought one. Here is a brief overview of my impressions: :) D112 - OK mic. Fat but kindof peaky in the 2K range but dull above 5K. :) Beta52 - Again, an OK mic. Somewhat hyped low end but an unpleasant "thwacky" sound...

I just bought a 7200 RPM Maxtor ATA66 27GB drive. It is awesome! I have noticed a very significant performance increase when recording and playing back audio. I also saw the CPU utilization go down quite a bit when playing back the same number of tracks. You can always buy a PCI card with 2...

Hoi, The type of guitar sound you want (distortion, clean, classical) will determine how you record the guitar (mic on the amp, mic on the guitar, plug straight in). If you want a distorted sound, mic the guitar amp with just about any mic. Put it 2"-6" (5-15 cm) from the speaker on the...

HOLY COW!!! I was looking at another post in the CEP forum and I think I have figured out the problem. I never went in and checked to see if the DMA box was checked under device manager | disk drives (I didn't even know the DMA box was there and I think of myself as one in the know - guess...

Hi there, I am new to this BBS so I don't know if this question has been answered before. I am using CEP 1.1 and a GL 824 interface. Very cool interface BTW. In CEP, if I go to record 8 channels, sometimes one set of channels (usually 1&2) start out of time. How I have tested this is to...
