My band's going into the studio vs. my garage to track drums, and we'll go back when we can afford to to track guitars/bass and then vocals another day. The place we're recording at is very nice, lots of great gear, built from the ground up for recording, no modifications, and it's gonna be badass!
The problem is that I know the owner and I'm pretty much tracking everything along with our mutual friend being there to assist so that we can get a really low rate. I don't know the gear so well, so give me some advice.
if you had:
4 channels of current generation SSL Xlogic,
4 channels of Vintech 437,
and a Control 24 (so 16 channels of some kind of Focusrite pre)
Plus
A few DBX 162s
And
3 SM57s
2 MD441s
3 MD421s
3 SM81s
1 KSM27
1 U87
2 I5s
2 M177s
1 ATM25
1 E609
What would you use to track drums (provided the drummer and the kit is up for it!) for a big, tight punchy sound? Point me in the right direction.
