Bullet with Butterfly Wings for Smashing Pumpkins Audition

This my cover of Bullet With Butterfly Wings for the Smashing Pumpkins drummer audition. I know there are a lot of drummers going for this, but I figured I would try to get in as well. My acoustic kit was unavailable at the time of recording, so I went with the e-kit, which produced a good sound. Any ignorant/hateful/asshole comments will be deleted, so constructive criticism only please. Thank you. Enjoy, and wish me luck...

How do you record the sound so good? I've been trying to record some drums from my electric drum kid, but the sound keeps comming out awefully. Do you plug the drumkit right into the computer and record it like that, or do you just play with speakers on and record with a normal mic?

[bikefreak77]

I plug the kit straight into my computer from the L/R output jacks to the input jack on my laptop. I use a stereo 1/4 male to 1/8 male cable to make the connection. I record this in Ableton Live 7 (you could use Audacity) and mix in the original song. Then I just use Windows Movie Maker to put it all together. thanks for commenting

You're a good drummer. I know you may not have made the Pumpkins but there will be loads of other opportunities for you. Good shit.
