Thanks !

Drums were miked with a fairly simple setup in a very live room. Most importanlty, overheads were either an old Telefunken SM2 in MS (and a Sennheiser 8020 mono room mic roughly 6ft away) or a pair of Senn 8020 (with a Gemini as mono room). Kick was AKG D-112 and Senn 421, and snare was SM57 (top) and Senn 441 (bottom). Preamps were Millenia HV-3D and API 3124. Some kicks were replaced here and there, but that's all.

Outboard comp were mostly Distressors, Summit and custom LA-2A. Everything went through UAD Neve 88RS and was then summend through a Shadow Hills Equinox.
