My Tama drums with EQ, compression, reverb, etc... (NO TRIGGERS)

just playing around to get a decent sound out of my drums for a home recording of my band. No triggers were used in this video, I just used the drum mics and edited the sound through the program Sonar 8.5 tell me what you guys think :P

PS: the heads I use are Evans HD dry for the batter head of the snare (the resonant for the snare is the stock tama reso head), for the toms they are the G2 on top and the G1 on the bottom and for the kick drum the head is the remo powestroke 3 clear on the batter and the stock tama reso head :)

I'd suggest you lower the mid frequency sounds in the equalizing of the toms, they sound a little boxy for my taste. That'll clean up the tone a little better. Just my opinion.

@lpjdrummer12295 actually they sound like that on this video because the bass was too high to make up for all the mids I had lowered. I fixed that already :)

@dinkyemg how did you get the snare to sound like that it rocks

[dinkyemg]

@Craigy125 I did some eq and a very good tuning. I tune the top head to the note D and the bottom to a F#. The next time I change my heads i'll try to do a tuning video

@dinkyemg cool. I checked out your vid.. awesome!! well done sir. 10+

@jacoboscar79 I plug all the mics on an interface that goes into my computer and edit the sound on a program called Sonar 8.5 :) But if you go to my latest drum cover on "I caught myself" by paramore you will hear a much better sound out of my drums on that cover :P
