Yk, there are so many kick hits and things you can’t hear in the og or even the instrumental. You really have to get the guitar, bass, and vocals out of the way to hear everything. Dave Grohl is a legend
This might sound weird. When I was younger I had headphones where the right speaker would act up and isolate some of the instruments into the left ear. A lot of grunge and metal. Bass lines and drumlines would go into my left ear and I would hear things I never heard before. It almost felt special. I miss my ipod.
It almost sounds like the close mics didn’t get included on them and only the room mics picked them up. Also, there’s a high pitched ringing from the reverb snare sample I can’t unhear (absent on the fills.). AW definitely mixes in context without soloing.
Totally true. I've heard a lot of great drummers cover this and they never pick up those hits and never quite match his sound. Something about his cymbals always sounds unique and they never get the hey...yay part right either if you watch grohl do it live
There is a relic every so often that hits about a 8th note or maybe 16th note after some snare hits. It almost even sounds like echo or reverb its so quick but also in-time. So odd it makes me feel like an unintended relic from a cut and tape that was buried in the mix. Whatever it is, I love that technology has made us fortunate enough to hear every detail of such an amazing piece of art
@ when you hit a snare drum or any drum it slowly looses its tune over time and dave grohl hit the snare drum so hard in this recording that you can audibly hear a distinct difference in the pitch of the snare towards the end of the song and the beginning of the song 😻
You would have loved the late 80's.....all drums taped to within an inch of their lives, no tone, no resonance Producers loved it because it made their lives so easy I hated it because I love to gear a drum sound like a drum
@@backbeat3451 That's not the drum ringing, that's some kind of extra sound layered on top. It sounds like someone hitting metal with a hammer or something, nothing like the drum just resonating.

@@5urg3x No, Butch Vig just recorded the band. Andy Wallace mixed the album. When mixing, he used drum samples to trigger reverb. The way he used them, you can’t hear the actual sample. You just hear the reverb that was made by them. Nevermind is all Dave Grohl being the best drummer ever 🙏
@@derekdfarrington11 I just googled it after the comment, apologies. I found the video where Andy Wallace talked about it. He said that he didn’t do sample replacement but he did do augmentation, where he added a reverbed snare sample behind the snare and mixed it in to have more control over the room / reverb sound. I still can’t really hear it tbh, but I listened on a phone, I’m going to see if I can download the stems and load them in a DAW tomorrow and play them through my monitors.
@@derekdfarrington11 Forgot to mention also (if anyone else is curious) - I read something else when I looked this up that I didn’t know prior - that Butchie made his own mixes of the Nevermind songs that he kept and held on to, and they were finally released as a part of the anniversary, and those tracks obv don’t contain the changes Andy made.

@@5urg3x you need to listen on monitors or headphone to hear it. You can tell it’s a sample because of the attack and way the reverb sounds EQd. It doesn’t sound like sending your snare track to a reverb effects unit. It sounds way more explosive.
The bass and drums were recorded live in the studio, albeit with the bass amp in an isolation booth. What you’re hearing is a little bit of leakage from the booth getting into the drum mics
@@diamond21450 Definitely wasn't, the snare alone is worth like 3k (and that individual snare is worth way more) and I think the kit is a Gretsch, definitely not cheap, it's just that he hits insanely hard.
No, these are not the drums from the album, exactly. You would be able to hear that terrible snare sample clearly on the quiet verses of the album, but you don't, cause its not there. These multitracks are ripped from a video game, Guitar Hero or something. Most likely the sound engineers who worked on the game added the snare and kick samples on top of the existing tracks to beef them up. I'm pretty certain they didn't have access to the drum mix that Andy Wallace created, since he didn't make stem recordings of the individual drums. He just made a stereo mix. The second thing I'd like to clarify is Andy Wallace used a snare sample to trigger reverb. So you hear the echo of a snare sample mixed with Dave Grohl's actual snare track.

I do not add any effects, including reverbs. All these effects are already present in the tracks of the multitrack, and it is impossible to remove them.
@@kiboko_drummer Right, the "ring" of the snare drum is normal. Dave usually played a wooden ( I think birch ) snare, I can almost gaurantee this is a typical metal Tama snare. To avoid the "ping" you'd have to loosen the actual snare strap on the bottom of the drum but then you would get more of a rattle and buzz sound. Yes Dave hits very hard, but he also positions his snare kind of high so as the stick comes down, not only does the tip hit the center of the drum head, but the side of the stick hits the metal edge called the hoop. This causes the lugs (screws) to loosen and change the tuning of the drum. Over time you'll need to replace the hoop because it's bent to shit. I learned to play drums by watching and listening to Dave. I know every move, every hit, every detail. I've studied him for 32 years. I have a masters degree in Grohlology. I could be his replacement !

that ring is from a sample
@@DwolfmusicI don’t believe it is. Wallace didn’t replace any of Dave’s drum tracks, he just eq’d and used a sample to trigger a reverb.

where did you get this from? this is amazing!
You can hear the Gap Band influence.
Whats that slightly annoying metallic ringing sound in the snare? Is this the snare-reverb-shotgun sample Andy Wallace put on?
Love it! :-)
WHERE DID YOU GET THESE TRACKS????
Didn’t Andy Wallace just use samples anyway? He used almost the same samples on all the stuff he mixes, but he still makes everything sound awesome.
That’s because he layers the samples instead of replacing the original take with a snare sample, but he didn’t do it all the time
No he didnt. Not for this song.
@@AlikiOfTheWolves he used a snare sample for every song on nevermind. i have that snare sample and its pretty recognisable.
