Michael, have you nothing better to do than answer this question for us?

Making records? It's way overrated. We're the ones that need you. Here. Now.

Lynn, you're such a hardass - go easy on the poor fella, after all, he's got PHOTOS TO POST

The B-Day festivities must be done by now, get off your lazy bum, already.

Just for shitz and giggles how bout a AKG D112

. That is my final answer....

maybe.

Todd H · 26th April 2006

Shure SM-81.

aetucker1 · 26th April 2006

edit.....i think you are using the shure that you used for kings x...from your website..."drum room mic, some Shure I found, it's going through the VIPRE and 1176"

allen

WEAPON_X · 26th April 2006

i vote for a speaker that is normaly used for micing the kick drum, and maybe run through an sansamp ? my second guess is the cheap $5 mic that you used on some of the latest king's x recordings for that weird vocal sound.

btw - happy birthday !

KingDaddyO · 26th April 2006

AWAI M-16?

ToddF · 27th April 2006

Darn it.

Ok I got it. AKG 451 was what I meant to say.

Do we get any hints? Is it on your mic list?

Todd

jspartz · 27th April 2006

I will take a shot and go with a Shure Green Bullet.

Jason

not_so_new · 27th April 2006

Well.. someone already said it but I would go with an E250 or a 4040, something about the high end of the kit. So hard to tell without knowing what the room sounds like but...

Anway Michael, thanks for posting this thread, very very cool, thank you!!

aaronsternke · 27th April 2006

I'll guess ...

Western Electric 639a Ribbon. Close??

Aaron

DirkB · 27th April 2006

AKG C2000.

Greetings,

Here it is:

It was a fluke. During pre-production I had already disconnected the interface for recording and Nuendo resolved to the "built in audio" status. I was wondering what I was seeing on the meters, and when I checked it sounded crazy with the whole band playing. I decided to try it for the drum room. It sounds very cool when mixed in with the other drum mics. And as you might be able to tell, I'm not even using my trusted Shure 51 for this session (and the next few). The screen behind the mics must have some major influence on the sound too. I'm routing out of the line output (miniplug) and go straight into the converters. Nuendo is on direct monitoring and switched to input.

Now watch the price for used G4/500 powerbooks shoot through the roof on ebay...

We finished 6 complete drumtracks today, kicking butt, 6 more tomorrow and we're done with drums.

Yetti · 27th April 2006

Congrats VukOnCrack!
Thanks for the fun thread Michael!!

So much for that 4040 huh?

It is an interesting sound for sure, not very cool in a very cool sort of way... you know? LOL

Thanks Michael, much fun.

Dude! Wow, talk about a lucky, wild guess! I just figured it had to be something handy and not on the mic list. Once someone mentioned using monitors as a mic I thought I had blown it! Cool!

And what amazing generosity, Michael. My sincere gratitude (email forthcoming) to you.

PID · 27th April 2006

Well, if that wasn't good clean fun I don't know what is!

thankyou Michael

Well good guess! You lucky.......

Gnash · 27th April 2006

It sounds like a laptop mic to me!

Did I win?!?! Oh, the party's over?

Just Jokin

For the record, I was going to guess a 4050, since I'm now the 4050 crack boy! I just love that mic! Nah, really I was going to guess a $5 Radio Shack. One of those with the built in 1/4" cable. Those rock on Drums! But are made to work in the field.

Under a Monster Truck!

JMWS · 27th April 2006

Mr.Wagener, what guitargear was used in recording "Slave To The Grind"? Did you use ADA MP-1 or Rivera s120 heads or both perhaps? What else?

Wow! I got 2 G4/500 as Internet browsers for our clients. From now on I´ll name them "G4 Ti Room Microphones". There is no such ting as "too many microphones"....

Stein Tore

Sqye · 27th April 2006

thanks, Michael, for the little pop quiz

looks like a sweet kit - i'm sure it's sounding awesome, already.

rock those drum tracks, yo.

**mwagener** · 28th April 2006

Well, the drums are done, two days for 12 songs ain't bad. We're doing a few little drum part overdubs tomorrow and then it's on to bass. The guys are kicking butt.

There was too much to list on that record. By the time we recorded "Slave..." the guys had collected a whole bunch of vintage amps and we tried a lot of different ones on those tracks. The Rivera was in there, but I don't think we used the ADA on that album.

Yes I did. It's just soo much easier to set up. It sounds not quite as low as the homemade speaker but it's a bit tighter.

ozraves · 28th April 2006

Very funny. I knew it was something crappy. Michael, thanks for the entertaining diversion.
