What is the most important thing when recording drums? We will not keep the intrigue here, because those who often watch our training videos know for sure that the most important thing in any recording, mixing and mastering is a high-quality source. In relation to the drum kit, this is primarily the tuning of the drums. Yes, they are tuned by notes, no matter how it may seem from the outside, like: “What is there to tune? Knock, knock!” The second component of success, we would call the experience and skills of the drummer himself. Believe me, you can play a concert, in general, with an inexperienced musician, the rest will somehow pull it off, adjust, but making a recording that will then have to be pulled up note by note is too painstaking work, which few sound engineers will undertake. In addition, precious time in the studio will be wasted, and it is easier to fill in a part of drums from electronic libraries. Well, then come the principles of microphone placement, their quantity, the quality of the equipment and the direct hands of the person working with sound.
