Drum Recording Workshop - 22nd August from 6pm (1 Viewer)

[RED(tape)MENACE]

Ok, so here's the plan..

We have Elektra booked from 6 until 11pm.
The plan is to run through ways and means to record drums.
That's about it.
We'll try a bunch of different mics, in a bunch of different positions.
We'll try some ways to mic up a kit with 1,2,3,4 or 14 mics.
Should be fun!

 

[RED(tape)MENACE]

By the way, would folks be more interested in hearing drums mic'ed up with the kind of mics most home recording folks would have access to.. 57s/58s/C1000s and shit, or would they be interested in hearing somewhat fancier mics?
Or a bit of both?

[the departed]

i *should* be able to lend my drumming skills to this.

 

[RED(tape)MENACE]

Cool, and sure if anyone wants to bring in any weird or interesting mics of their own for fun, DO IT!

 

[RED(tape)MENACE]

Oh, and by the way, this is open to anyone who wants to :

1. Learn a thing or two about recording drums.
2. Hear a couple of different kinds of mics in various applications.
3. Hang out in a studio and talk about recording drums.

The studio will cost e120 to rent, so we'll split the cost between everyone who attends.
