Tune both sides to the lowest possible tone. Like the results?
If not tune the reso a step higher. This should get you a more solid tone, wile the batter head still gives you a fat attack.
Tuning the batter head will give you a less wet attack. but at one point things can sound realy resonat (when both heads get into the resonance frequency of the shell).
Than isn't what would be a rock or metal drum sound cliche, but than again, if it fits the song.
For a big sound try to tune the drums in relation to each other (think power chord).
That should give you sympathic resonacs from all drums when you strick one.
Did that make sence? I don't know. |
Yes it does.
Thank you.
Nutmeg II, please elaborate on where and what size hole to put in the reso kick head, what muffling inside the kick and type of mic(s) and mic positioning on the kick?
