Thread Starter | Help EQing drums out of a live track! Any suggestions helpful
So we're throwing up a live video of one of our shows (The vid quality is excellent!) on Myspace, but we only have the recording from the board, which is terrible. I can live with the overall bad quality of the track, but the drums are like twice as loud as the keyboards and bass. I tried doing a sweep to see if I could lose the drums and keep the low end but I didn't come out to successful. Any tips on how I could run a master eq or anything on this bad boy to make it sound better and the bring the live drums WAYYY down? (I included the audio, and yes, the low end is ridiculously way to loud, so I'll have to cut that a lot too, helpfully that will help with drum volume)

Multiband compression? It didn't sound that bad to me. You may think the drums are up too much, but other than the tom toms in that one section, it sounded like a regular rock mix with the drums up and the keyboards back. Should be fine for Myspace. Look into automating you EQ, since there are places where the drums are fine.
