| Gear addict | Mic'ing my drums w/ new preamps/mics Ok so since the last time ive had a band in my home studio (about a 2 months ago) ive acquired a decent amount of new gear and was trying to devise a new plan for micing up the drums. My main pres: 2 channels w/ Joe Meek Twin Q 1 channel w/ Joe Meek VC1Q 1 channel Behringer mic100 (not even sure if i would use it havent in past) Rest goes through MOTU 896 preamps All use the MOTU converters into Sonar My Mics: 2 mxl 603s 1 CAD m9 tube condenser 1 Behringer b2 condenser 1 sm57 1 audix i5 1 audix f10 1 AKG d112 rest are just regular vocal condenser mics... So my new theory is: Use one overhead using the CAD m9 dead center of the kit/cymbals and running through the VC1Q...i think the enhancer on it will work nicely on the cymbals (more concerned with them then the kit) I5 on snare through twinq, AKG d112 on kick through twinQ then use one of the mxl 603s on the highat, then sm57 on floor tom and the audix f10 on rack tom (if theres more toms ill use my other dynamics)...and all of those would go through the MOTU pres. I use to use xy overheads with the mxl's....but i thought this might be a new way to do it...any thoughts suggestions? If i had two VC1Q channels then i might still use dual overheads...and i know ur thinking use the twinq here but no i like it on the snare and kick...ive gotten excellent results there and my overheads mics are more for just cymbals....so Throw me some ideas...diff setups thoughts opinions...etc....using what i have please! ![]()
