Man....he definitly has chops, that's for sure....I'd want to hear him in a grrove situation myself but this should do good for the competition your using it for.
I rarely record live drums but when I do....I like the same method as M. Brane, I use two mics to create a stereo field for the kit and a mic in the kick....work very good, especially with a couple of PZMs on stands for the stereo mics.

Ralph,
Just browsing your NWR site, I had to search for the post. Damn, How did I miss these chops? Sounds like a bright future is looming for this young man! Wouldn't mind havin his chops on one of my tunes! One of these days maybe I'll be good enough for you guys. I'm practicing hard for the up-coming collab!

Can always count on your words of wisdom! (I'm lefthanded and therefore think backwards sometimes! LOL) Thanks again friend.
SLuiCe
Thanks for the tips! I will tighten the pan & back off on the verb.
I've done some gigs in your town! Are those twin sheratons that look like huge Hostess cupcakes still there?
ChuckU
How do you like the 'green monsters' new additional seats? I'd like to sit there on the top row during an evening game so I could hear the rock shows on Landsdown St. behind! Best of both worlds-SOX & ROCKS!
Thanks for the chops comment as he woodsheds 2 hours a day w/o parental prompting. It's fun to listen to but tough to make phone calls!!
His band is at the Wocester Palladium next week! Then back to the garden spots.
Hardcore
Thanks for the listen and jumping in w/ that appreciated comment!
Lt. Bob
I am definitely going to try your bass mic & Brane's suggestions.
His grooves in this style are rock steady and require unbelievable stamina. After an hour set with his band, he looks like he jumped into the pool, clothes & all.......major "swamp ass "even with the fans on him. Thanks for dropping by!

Thanks again friend. You know how to reach me when it's time!

Yeah, I used to play drums like that, (maybe I played a little faster) but after awhile, you just get tired of people constantly telling you how great you are, and the women CONSTANTLY throwing themselves at you...
lmao - nice chops he's got there.
I can't help you on the recording of the drums. I ended up recording my drummer playing a bunch of different stuff in 4/4 and 3/4 and I use those for loops, but I had to jack with them so much that I can't even remember what I did...and my technique was obviously flawed or I wouldn't have had to work on them so much.
Anyway, just stopping by to say "hi, your offspring is talented," lol.

4th mix.
Stripped it bone dry & ran it through (C.E.P. trial & error about 100 friggin times.)
Other than the lopsided panning that I'm still working on, how is the general tone quality for this cheap Tama Swingstar and a couple of SM-58s.
I'm just looking to record him for these upcoming (16 and under)
competitions in a presentable fashion that won't get in the way of any judges critique.
Specifically how is the EQ and Verb, along with anything else that strikes you on this mix?
Thanks
Ralph

Dang!
He should be able to plug himself into any type of project he wants.
I mean I wish i had that type of options at his age. Jeez, hmm.. what to do next Yeager tour or what?
I'm assuming Drumline has been in regular rotation around the Funaro household?

Ya, can't give you too much mix advice since I can only listen in lo-fi, but I can tell you that you have one talented son there!
I'm also lucky to have some talent here. My son is the drummer in a band called RXBandits. They just got back from touring Europe and they are headed out on an American tour with their fourth CD release out in the summer.
I know how you feel about having him do some recording for you. Do it quick, because before you know it, he'll be snatched up into a band and out touring and you won't see him as much. Everytime I want my son to help me out, he is out playing somewhere ...
Your son is excellent!
You should be proud!
p.s. the mix sounded good on lo-fi, but I'm not much help in that area...

Re: Proud Dad!
I'm all over that man! Good advise....I might be a little late as his band is signing a European contract this weekend for a 3 week stint this summer. http://manifestmass.com
Good luck to your son....sounds hip!
