what would you recommend for a click mic? Audix i5 on kick? SM57? |
mixtape: One other suggestion for you is to do a search here on: kick drumagog
My understanding is that the way the big boys get the nu metal kick click is typically through replacing with a sample or blending with a sample.
If you really want to get it all acoustically with mics I personally would suggest trying the D112 or an SM57. I own those mics (along with a Beta 52 which may be too full of a sound for your application) and have tried a lot of different micing set ups including micing the beater side, two mics in the drum.... However, since I do not do heavy music, I am not the best to answer your questions, but I am an avid reader at this site and did a lot of reading specifically about drums and frankly, I do not think you are being pointed in the right direction here.
Here are a few threads that might apply. (I do not mean to be a jerk and just say "use search," but having followed this thread a bit I cannot help but to think you could find your answer posted here somewhere already.
Some guys who have posted some great stuff about drums include (but are not limited to) Fletcher (here and at the mercenary site,) Recorderman, and Heinz. Look for their posts, they appear to all speak from personal experience, not hearsay. Warren Dent is also a wealth of knowledge and shares a lot here.
Anyway, here is some reading for you.
