ok, here is my set:
7 pcs shell kit, 3 rack mounted toms (8, 10, 13) 2 flr toms (16, 18) 22" kick. 3 roto toms (6, 8, 10).
the set is set up (from the drummers point of view, left to right)...
roto toms above my hi-hat, right in line with my rack mounted toms. above them, far laft is my 19 china and to the right of that, right above my first rack mounted tom is my 16 crash. between my hi-hat and first rack tom is a 9 1/2 inch zil-bell. above my second rack tom is my 10" splash. above my third rack tom is my 14" china. on the right of that i have my two 18" crashs. below these and right next to my third tom is my 20" ride. right next to the two 18" crashs is my 18" fast china.
thats my set.
these are my mics:
3 sennheiser e 825s
1 radio shack clip mic for the snare
2 mics comprable to the senn.s
2 Oktava MK319s
1 AKG CS1000
i have the 3 senns on the rack mounted toms, the 2 comprable ones in the kick and over the 2 flr toms. the 2 oktavas i have above my head, facing down on the kit in a traditional left/right setup. the AKG is right next to the left oktava, pointed at the roto toms for coverage there.
my rack mounted toms are making horrible, LOUD noise. mostly when i hit the kick. but all drums are doing it. when i strike one drum, all the others strike too. know what i mean? as if when i strike the third tom, all other drums are giving almost the same volume of noise as if they were being struck too.
it's killing me.
the AKG isn;t sounding right in the place it's in now. i wonder if theres a better place to put it.
now, aside from the problems i addressed above, i am certain there are several other problems that i haven;t become aware of or cannot address at this time.
does anybody have any ideas on how i can imporve upon this set up??????
please, the progress of this project is at a stand still untill i can figure out how to make this set record well. i need all your help.
