• Description: Capturing a great drum sound is the ultimate test of an engineer. We look at strategic microphone selection (Dynamic vs. Condenser) and the physics of room ambiance to create a cohesive, powerful drum image.
• Key Learning Points:
• Phase-accurate multi-mic setups.
• The “Three-Mic” rule for natural drum tones.
• Isolating and blending the Kick/Snare/Overhead relationship.
• Who is this for? Tracking engineers and student drummers.
