      Both sound great but I prefer Warren's because it takes advantage of the room sound. What would John Bonham’s drums be without the stairwell at Headley Grange, on Led Zeppelin, When the Levee Breaks? I LOVE when engineers take advantage of the environment they're recording in. It makes the performance special and showcases the signature sound of the studio. In other words, you can't get that exact sound anywhere else. AWESOME VIDEO!!! 🥁🎶🎹🎶🎸

    My god, just absolutely ridiculously well recorded drums on both counts!

Unbelievably cool

  • @pjones8404
    @pjones8404 5 днів тому +1

    As a drummer into my 51st year of playing, this was extremely enjoyable and educational. To cut to the chase, as presented, I would most certainly go with Nolly's approach and final sound. First of all, great drumming. That makes a huge difference. And the kit is well prepared for the session. Again, very important.
    I always want my drums in the most wide-open space it can be. It would have been nice to just hear the drums, even with just a two-mic setup as to how it sounded naturally in the room. My guess would be that Nolly's location would afford a more expansive and dynamic location vs. being closer to the back wall approach used by Warren.
    I am very impressed with the backwards approach of recording the kit from the batter side. His description of having basically three levels of sounds, each with specific characteristics, is brilliant. The snare drum, I haven't used a wood shell drum since I was in Jr. High in the mid 70's, exploded to life when those rear remote mics were engaged. While I would prefer the Black Beauty snare...what Nolly got out of a very high-quality snare drum is very nice.
    It just feels more "alive" to my ears. And as a player, that is inspiring and will most certainly contribute to me wanting to deliver the best tracks I possibly could!

    Wow! This was one of the best drum production videoa Ive ever seen. Its like technique, philosophy and idea overload! But in my humble opinion I think there isnt one that is better than the other. For what I like and am hearing they are both absolutely great drum recordings but they both belong to different genres. Which was totally expected to me. Warren captured an AMAZING pop rock/classic rock drum sound to where Nolly got an AMAZING modern rock/metal sound. Not that Warrens couldnt be used on a modern rock song. When I hear them back-to-back for some reason I picture Warren's as the Valhalla Vintage Verb 70's setting and Nolly's as the Modern setting. 😂 Thank you both so very much! You are both incredible.

This is all very good information. Both mixes sounded good and they both had great things to each of them. I loved that you both kept saying the importance of having a good consistent drummer playing on a great kit in a great room!!! Why should it be any different for drums than any other instrument!!! After all, the sound all starts in the hands and how the drummer hits the drums!!! It's no different for guitar players or keyboardists!!! Great video!!! Thanks for sharing Warren!!! 😎🎶

      Actually I think Warren's can easily be turned into a Foo Fighters type of sound. You'll need to do a bit of parallel compression to bring out the close mics and what not, but they already have so much personality that with fairly standard mixing techniques you can achieve a pretty unique drum sound. Nolly's sound more "balanced" overall, but also a bit boring maybe? You can do great work with both approaches regardless

    We recorded at Electrical Audio w/ one of the house engineers and he used the E22s, surprisingly he also had them angled/not parallel. They were just perfect at mix time. Cad M179s and Audio Technica ATM450 are really good poor man's substitutes. The latter in particular because it's so small and side address. The bottom end is just huge on them too. I wish it had a little less output like the E22, but it does sound great, and I rarely have to do much to my toms in mixing. Switching to condensers on toms was a revelation for me.

    I’m glad I watched this for several reasons. But firstly, Nolly mentioned (more than once) the importance of getting the record levels of each mic roughly the same. Which I would agree is an axiom of recording drums.
    Especially if you like using the mic, it’s type and placement before ever touching an eq.

    Warren went all in for that 90s Brendan O' Brien sound!
    I would bring bring down the rooms and overheads a little bit though and it would feel tighter and closer to Nolly's.
    His close mics sounded amazing as well!
    They both rock!
    I learned so much from this!

    They both managed to get such different vibes out of same drumset/drummer/song/room/outboard gear.
    Proves a point of how much a producer/engineer can shape a song.

    This video was great, it would be interesting to see how you both would make decisions recording drums in a smaller, less than ideal room and with perhaps either some cheaper equipment or even user suggested equipment to fit a budget (for example Nolly mentioning the Behringer B19a as a budget version of the 91a). I think it would be valuable for a lot of people to see how you would make decisions in a situation similar to theirs but with this videos level of depth :)

      Indeed. When I track I pretty stand facing the musicians 99% of the time. The Engineers and Producers with their feet up on the console really bothers me! Ha All I can think of is Al Schmitt telling them off for doing it!

  • @davids840
    @davids840 Місяць тому

    Regarding that tom mic thing: those mics have only 3 mV/Pa sensitivity + a trafo making the bleed/transients closer to dynamic with the flatness/bandwidth of a condenser.
    You are free to look for a cheaper replacement with same features!
    Lauten LS208 has 5mV/Pa and narrower polar pattern (but no trafo and more coloured freq response)

    About panning drums I personally prefer drummer perspective because it's easier to airdrum the coolest grooves and fills and I kinda think that fills should go left to right like text. :D That left to right reasoning thing for me might be a little weird but for some reason I think that left to right feels more like going forward and right to left feels like backing up. :D

    Hey warren, i have a neve 1073, and i find that it is a little harsh on my cymbals than my prism pre's which are a little less colored. Do you guys find this problem too? do you avoid the 1073 on some high frequency stuff? iv heard people do... though it is the most awesome choice for low end, and guitars yes very true...
    Thanks for all the great videos btw!

  • @oldguysplaymetal5517
    @oldguysplaymetal5517 Місяць тому

    Great video. Guys, I am curious, sorry if it was covered. Do you time align a room track that is far enough away from the kit to result in what must be 20-30 milliseconds of delay, causing a flam? Warren, I know you usually do, but this seems to be debated alot and I'm a drummer / producer guy, so would love to hear what both of you recommend/did?

      They are supplied as they were recorded. Time alignment is a matter of taste! Some people use it aggressively, some not at all and something a small amount! Try different things and see what works for you

    Warren's drum mix is a really interesting choice - quite unexpected! I really like the bigness. I wonder if that's your Queen influence coming in :) Although Roy Thomas Baker snares were not usually as "live" as that. I think the kick sound on Warren's is much better too. But either could work in the mix just as validly :D The beauty of subjectivity.

    So if you pan overheads 70-80, how would you pan room mics then?
    My go-to has been to pan overheads at 70 or recently i tried even 50, but i'm still kind of in the process of figuring out where to pan the rooms. (If we're talking about one set of room mics, so two room mics with to two overhead mics)
