UPDATE: I am much more satisfied with the drums/bass after working on them last night. I ended up adding a healthy dose of low end and cut just a smidge on the mids and highs. I sent the tracks to Group1/2 and compressed the crap out of them there, bringing them up underneath the main drums...

Drums Bass Guitars Other Rhythm instruments Lead Vox Lead Instruments Other Vox Extra Stuff BUT, I see where people that go to the vox after drums and bass are coming from. I'm going to try this approach tomorrow on a song I am re-mixing anyway and see how it feels.

I concur with the sentiment conveyed by miroslav. I myself like to use the whole stereo field and fewer fx overall than most people. That being said, I found an old stereo 2 track mix of a jam that I am absolutely saving and using it sounds so good. A kick mic, a KSM32 acting as OH/room...

Yes! And that's why I've kept these tracks for so long. I thought he played so tastefully and I never felt the tracks sounded bad myself. It's very validating to me (thanks!) to hear other folks notice his 'touch', even through a Roland V-drum kit. I was always planning on reworking a number...

These are Roland V-drums played in 2004. I only have them as a 2-track stereo mix. Hence the quandary. I think his performance is great, but I can't EQ or compress or tweak any individual element of the drums. The guitar track you aren't digging was done through a Sansamp rack unit (the old...

I couldn't get the file uploader to work for me, so here is a soundcloud link......... Thank You if you take the time to listen!! https://soundcloud.com/dwayne-carlson-1/dwayne-carlson-minimum-wage-minimum-wage/s-nBk1W

Hey everyone. My first batch of original music is ready to see the light of day, but I'm having a hard time reconciling one problem.......... the drums are electronic, but the performance is so solid I don't want to replace them. Everything else is done. I sent one song out to master with the...

Consensus tells me I need to add tom mics. The question there is, do I go with my little Senns that clip on the toms and risk a bit of noise or go with 57/58 on the higher toms and my AKG D550 on the lower floor tom? The clips sure are a lot less clutter, but I've heard of noise problems using...

The O/Hs are almost 100% panned, but not quite. More like 95% panned. I'll tighten it up a bit and see if the cymbals become a bit more present. Or, would a small amount of compression on the drum mix be helpful for this? QUESTION: Do you track your drums with panning in place, or leave it...

https://soundcloud.com/andrew-cooper-83/gravel-pit Please help me pick it apart so I can improve. It's a VERY basic set up. Sountracs Topaz 24/8 to Tascam DA-88s mixed on Event Tr8s Kick Beta 52 Snare SM 57 2 O/H AKG C1000s Bass: Direct Box Clean Guitar: Roland JC 120 with e609 Dist...

Hello everyone. I am new here, though I have been lurking and reading the plethora of threads for years now. I have a few pieces of gear I'd like to trade simply because I've found I enjoy my Sountracs Topaz more than working in the box. I guess I'm just more of a touch the knobs kind of...
