Trying out my new mic set up with all new heads. There are some mistakes but oh well... The mics are audix D series except for the condensers (Sterling audio ST31's) and the snare which is an audix i-5. All the mics go into my new Yamaha 166CX, and from there into my Tascam DP-02CF through a left and right cable.

  • your kit sounds badass, but, if i have to say anything, why are your rack toms spread so far apart, it looks like it'd be kind of tough to do some transitions and fills, just sayin'

  • @DailyBeat97 Part of it is the camera angle I think, but since then I've moved and arranged the set much better. check out my newer vids

  • hey, your drumming is awesome! I want to start learning the drums, but wanted to ask what brand of drums are these in the video? thanks man, i subscribed!

  • @Prologue2113 These are pearl drums. They don't make this particular series anymore but you can find a good set for whatever price range your looking for.

  • What kickdrum mic?

  • @SenthysizzerYeah Audix D6

  • @semiLivedj Well keep in mind this was my first time ever using the mics and recording. Superior drummer is a great program, but it doesn't sound the same as my set the way I want it. It sounds too perfect for my taste. Mesh head sets are REALLY nice too, but they have a different feel than acoustic drums, way more bounce to the heads even if you lessen the tension (not to mention the price tag)

  • @wannabedrummerlol They're Zildjain new beat hi hats, with the bottom on top.

see all

  • @DrumGuitarist1379 your newer setup is much better, btw, what series of pearl drums are these?

  • Sounds great. I'd say the only thing I would do differently is to add a bit more bottom end on the bass drum. Not too much, but a little, probably between 50-65 hz. That'll bring a bit more presence to it. I think the snare sound here is probably my favorite, but all of them sound good overall.

  • @bluesbro182 There is a mistake or the tempo is sliding, but I didn't read the description so sorry for it :)

  • yeah.... awesome..

  • Hey man, just wondering how your snare is tuned? Are both heads pretty tight, or is one tighter than the other like?? Its got a nice like 'crack' to it. Cheers dude.

  • bass drum sounds dreadful.
