My role is the drummer.
2 guitars, to help when tracking, one as the bass and a slide guitar.
Channels – 17-23
We put the bass through the DI
2 AKG C414’s (Condenser) – overheads, making it stereo. Bass and snare in the middle so they appear to be in the middle of the sound field.
AKG D112 (Dynamic), – kick drum, pointed towards where the beater hits, about 2 inches away, giving more attack when the beater hits.
2 Shure SM57’s (Dynamic) – Snare, one on top and bottom. The top was used to capture the low end, popping sounds. The bottom captured the crisp snare wires.
Beyerdynamic M201 (Dynamic) – toms, These are good mic’s for the toms because they avoid cymbal bleed.
