I just got a presonus firepod so I now have the ability to record up to 8 mics simultaneously.. now allowing me to do drums how I've wanted to do them.
But having such limited resources is now making it hard, now that I have the inputs.
How many mics do I use?
and Where do I put them?
What kind of room?
right now I'm experimenting with 4 mics (i need more stands). sm57 on snare, beta 52 on kick, 2 cheap lipstick condensors for overheads.
It sounds ok.. but I am trying to get that really fully, pop punk drum sound. What do I need to do? the room I am recording in has an echo..
