    Really nice to hear the engineer discuss the specific signal chain of each microphone. Normally people just namedrop a few compressors, a few EQs, and stay real vague. By being specific, he gives us a chance to learn a bit from him.

      That´s because good engineers want people to develop​ their own sound and build a song from what they think sounds good not what some guy said on youtube.

      Would you want that sound for your drums tho???...to me it sounds like the outboard gating coupled with the use of reverb to bring back what the gate took away seems like shooting yourself in foot!..I'm being honest I don't think the black keys albums we all know and love where recorded like that..magic potion didn't sound that way!

    I've been getting good results with just one small pencil condenser above the drum kit a few feet pointed down at my snare, with an AKG D112 kick drum mic on the resonant head. So just two microphones. No phase issues. But I also produce simple, 60s sounding surf rock. The only downside is I gotta hit that snare drum hard, and then boost it with EQ. But I prefer the two microphone setup and Ableton Live to all of this hardware (that I don't know how to use and can't afford).

      think about it in the context of a mix? without the kick mic thats not gonna stand out at all and youll probably just end up dragging in a second kick sample over the original kick, so why not just record the og with its own mic, same with the snare, you need the snare to stand out theyre the most important percussive elements for this type of music. although the snare is very compressed it just sounds like they tried eqing the hats out and then compressing the snare and it was sloppy and quick- probably done quickly before the cameras came maybe

    On headphones it's great. It's not about the drums so much as it is the named effects( from the afro dude) have on the end result, which is a robust and strong sound. It sounds perfect for a mix already. I'll have to try a similar crossover setup attempt in ableton as i sadly don't own any API's. nice console marc.

      You must be joking! He lacks groove. He has a poor technique, and no feel, no dynamics, no rim shots, just awful. He sounds like he's been playing drums for about a week.

    interesting as usual , I like the sounds here,, so much set up tho... trying to figure out my sounds atm.. with low budget which is like ya know accept what ya get,,, I have a small set up.. so trying to find ways to record drums with out a bunch of gear,, but maybe impossible.. I got Shure drum mic's but cheap over head mic's thinking of finding a few better over head mic's,,learning curve for me but thanks for posting this video!

  • @AnyRoadAnyTime

    Whoa! That mono overhead mic was great. Not much else was needed, either... but they killed it by overproducing an underproduced sound. Certainly not a very "live" sounding mix, but I'm sure it works with the rest of the tracks when added.

    @jspanos500 5 ปีที่แล้ว +8

    Not digging that drum sound at all, but I will say that mono drums are very under appreciated. You can get a lot of power from driving the kit right up the middle of the mix. Of course this does not work for all musical styles.

  • @1990sDialUpWeb
    @1990sDialUpWeb 5 ปีที่แล้ว +5

    With that many separate sounds, I was definitely looking forward to hearing a nice balanced mix, but his final mix sounds like a toy. Dig his drums and him as a player, as well as his individual drum sounds, except for the snare (way to dead of a tone for a close mic, where's the punch?)
    I would rather hear the mono overhead for a final mix honestly, that thing sounded great.
    Also, open up GarageBand and dig the preprogrammed drums, those samples and riffs are amazing sounding, even when you try to find dry tones like these.

    • @yanceyboyz
      @yanceyboyz ปีที่แล้ว

      If you knew the first thing about music......you wouldn't be trying to judge a final mix of something....on TH-cam, which is known to destroy quality.... presumably through a phone or something.....not studio monitors.
      Also final mix of all the drum tracks not mixed and mastered, big difference.
