YOu'd think his voice would be mic'd better........can't hear him

[jesseldrummer]

IMAGEN HOW MANY MICS HE WOULD USE ON A DRUMSET!

[dee304]

@TheJaredpotts Sorry correction. I've never seen someone use 3 Large Diaphragm. I've seen 2 pencils and a Neuman U87 for room. Unless it was a quick take then just the Neuman. But youre right sorry.

[TheJaredpotts]

@dee304 you use 2 tops - but you aren't a professional artist either.

[darrylportelli]

@definiteNZ i guess they know the physics behind the mics and have a lot of experience with using this technique

[definiteNZ]

@darrylportelli yeah wouldnt that create phasing nightmares? i get phasing issues with just 2 mics let alone 4
