I am going to do some recording this week for the demo on my bands press kit.
I would like some advice on mic placement in the room & mics placement as in what mic to use on what drum. General advice on eq/compression/effects etc.
I am gonna use the standard drum kit.
5 piece Ludwig Classic Maple with a Supra & 5 cymbals. (Paiste 2002 crashes, Zildjian hats ride, splash).
Drums Sizes: 10,12,16, 14x6.5 snare 22x14 kick.
Here is what I am working with
Mics: Shure Beta 52, 3 SM57, 1 SM58,& 1 Beta 58,
I can use either Garage Band or Audacity recording software.
12 channel mixer with eq, rack compression/effects.
We are recording in a storage unit that 20'x8' that has been covered in carpet.
I know there are a ton of threads on recording but I would like some input on my specific situation.
I have done some home recording before but I would like to some input to speed along the process.
Thanks.
