  • Though the drums on Radiohead's "Exit Music" don't appear until well over halfway into the track's runtime, they make quite a bombastic entrance that helped earn the track its reputation as a fan favorite. Watch Noam & Jessica replicate the airtight, compressed drums on the "OK Computer" highlight. How close did they get?

    Watching the full mix at the end made me realise how reminiscent this song is to ‘Meddle’ era Floyd, when you can hear past Toms unique vocals.

    Love this series! I've just gotten into recording drums (beyond a classic/boring 5-mic into a board into a DAW), and these videos have been so mind-blowing (I still trip over the QotSA video where the cymbals were recorded separate from the drums... I mean, what the what...)

    8:33 perhaps you meant an Oktava sdc microphone?
    If it was crappy, I’m gonna assume it was meant that the condition of the microphone was in disrepair because those are very fine microphones!

    ok, the backing track, how was it made? what reverb on the guitars? it actually sounds better than the original i think

    • @Reverb
      @Reverb  Рік тому +2

      The guitar was pretty simple. Telecaster through an OD-1 and a Boss RE-20 Space Echo juiced! The bass was driven with a Big Muff but a lot of the sound is coming from over-saturating a Warm Audio MPX preamp and compressing the daylights out of it.
