Great drummer, great sounding kit, great video!
Thank you! Just checked out your videos! Great stuff!!! Subscribed!
That was Impressive 👊🏽
Thanks, Bob! Do you use the Glyn Johns Technique?
I love the sound you are getting from this mic setup. I already must have watched the video more than ten times just because of that. In a few weeks I will try out the Glyn Johns method with the drummer of my band and we're both really excited.
AHHH HAAHAHA Love it bro.
Haha! I had fun with that one! Thanks for checking it out! :)
Sounds good - love the Glyn! 👏🏻 going to try to tune up my drums way high, haven’t done that yet. Projects nicely!
They project and also they feel way better, to me anyway, when they are tuned up high. Let me know how it goes when you give it a try!
what mic are you using up top? Condenser?
Yep, it's a WA-47jr. :)
Hi Brad video 👌. Why is my kick mic (5" outside from the rest head) picking up rest of the kit? Is this normal? How do I solve this issue?
Yes, actually it is perfectly normal. The further you place your microphone away from the bass drum the less the difference in loudness between the bass drum and the rest of the kit there is for your microphone. Also the further you place it away the higher the gain setting you will have to use to record the bass drum resulting in a louder recording of the rest of the kit on that channel.
You will not be able to record drums without this so called mic bleed. You can try to place the mic closer to the bass drum or even inside. Another way to solve the problem could be using a gate plugin in your DAW or maybe a cut in the lower mids with an EQ so that you keep the fundamentals below and the kick of the beater above those.
Then again it depends on what you are planning to do with the recorded channels. Some people use the sound of the overhead and the tom mic to get a good representation of the sound of the drum kit and use the snare and the bass drum mic to add what is missing in the overheads. In that case the mic bleed would be less of a problem.
Hi Ron! 100% normal. Not only normal but actually a benefit. The entire kit is working together as one instrument instead a bunch of individual components. The Glyn Johns technique is a great technique to use when you're going for a very live and natural sound. If you would like you could try an old studio trick and place a heavy blanket over the bass drum. It reduces the bleed from the other drums a bit. This might give you the best of both worlds type of sound -- a natural sound with a bit more isolation. :)

No idea what that means. Enjoy your day.
