This week at the studio I am recording a bunch of drums for an upcoming release.
Since this is my own material; we have decided to take a chance and record the drums with only 3 microphones.
The theory behind this kind of setup is to capture the kit with as few microphones as possible, and get an actual image of what the kit sounds like in the room.
I feel like I am definitely taking a risk as this is the 1st time I have worked with this setup.
However I am working with Dan Ulmschneider who is a great drummer, and open to experimentation.
I am looking forward to the results.
Sometimes simplicity is everything.
