    CAD PDK Not Performing

    I recently decided to try out the CAD PDK3 drum mic package. We recorded a few songs, and my results were not as suspected. I placed the kick mic about two inches into the opening of the bass drum head. The sound is not punchy at all. We tried with no insulation, and a lot of insulation in...

    ALSO!!!!

    Does a card like the ADAT edit import your tracks from the ADAT to the computer as a wav file? Do you get like 8 wav files (one for each track). Then, import the wav files as tracks in some kind of multitrack software, and then mix, add efects, etc? is that how it works?
