\"DRUMS<\/a>There are hundreds of dissertations on this subject around the web.\u00a0 Many written by people far more qualified than I.\u00a0\u00a0However, since I’ve\u00a0recorded 400+ different kits over the years, and customer satisfaction has generally been high…\u00a0 This is Part Two.<\/p>\n

There was a session several years ago when the band had finished recording all of the basic tracks and were starting to overdub guitar parts when one of the band members asked, “Where did (the drummer) go?”\u00a0 None of us had seen him since\u00a0the last trip to his car after\u00a0tear-down…it had been at least \"UNDER<\/a>a half hour.\u00a0 It turns out that he had packed his car and quit the band.\u00a0 He\u00a0drove\u00a0three hours back home without saying goodbye thinking he was saving the band the messiness of quiting before he had recorded with them… Probably not the right call…<\/p>\n

No Worries One<\/strong>:\u00a0 Really cheap tom mics are fine.\u00a0 You’re only going to use them to augment the overheads and bring attack, body, and increased volume to the toms anyway.\u00a0 That sounded surprisingly like a shampoo ad.<\/p>\n

\"DRUMS<\/a>No Worries Two:<\/strong>\u00a0 Remove all of the damping, tune and reapply moon gels cut in half<\/em>.\u00a0 Full gels kill too much area.\u00a0 If you have to, use two halves in different spots.\u00a0 Drum Gum is also really effective.\u00a0 I actually use little frogs that I bought at a party store which are made out of the same stuff.\u00a0 Part Three.<\/a>\u00a0 or back to Part One.<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
