Re: Recording A Big Drum Set: Opinions and/or Suggestions
How much was this Paris system? I guess it's kind of old, because this is sort of the "old" way of doing things. I don't mean "old" way as in "cool" or "vintage" from 1970 type of thing. I mean "old" as in "really hard to work with".
I'm not sure of your situation, your band, etc but I couldn't imagine working with only 6 inputs on the drums and then bouncing drums down for overdubs. Personally, I'm glad I don't have to rely on Mackie EQ either. I just never felt like the Mackie EQs ever fixed the problems I was hearing no matter how I twisted them.
It's totally possible to get pretty good sound with your rig, but it sounds like its a lot harder than it should be. How do you track bass? Do you know crank up the kick drum really loud for that?
