I tried to do the Yamaha ead10 route. Didn’t work for me at all. I’m about to embark on micing my drums and recording like this for the first time. This video will help a lot. Thanks!
Hey man great video and great content if I can give you one tip there’s a lot of stuff you missed that you could of talked about to make the drums sound even better when miking a drum kit Like with the overheads makes sure there at the same level cause if your overhead mics are not at the same level then your drum recording is gonna sound out of phase The other thing talk about how far or close your mic should be to the kick drum Same with your snare mic and Tom mics You did a great job on the video there’s just a few importing things you should say and cover in the video to mic a drum kit But you did a great job and keep up the great work I’m a audio engineer and a music producer so I know all about this stuff And I also run a UA-cam channel where I teach mixing and recording music But keep up the good work your doing great
Thank You for the good and informative video🙏🔥 It would be great if you could show us a low budget version (especially less equipment, i.e. which instrument needs definitely a microphone). For sure the sound quality will decline but it would be better than nothing🙏
In my opinion that is pretty much the lowest you can go to record drums with mics, you can check out some 8 inputs audio interfaces, the focusrites are user friendly and quite cheap and really reliable, If you’re on pc, reaper is « free » which is the equivalent of garage band. I personnally use a a vintage analog mixer, the tascam m-50 that goes into a roland octa capture audio interface that simply digitalise the signal for reaper.
Bro you are the coolest guy I’m going to get all the things you said Im this incredible vid. Im a kid trying to post drum videos🙂🙂 and I really appreciate you man ❤ your awesome 😎
So I had a question I don't have a interface I use a 8 track tascam could I still connect 8 mics like I could to the interface or is that process different?
For the e-drums you can get the sound via an amplifier or you can just connect it to your computer and use a software like Ableton or Studio 1 and record and adjust the sounds from there, but Alejandro can explain much much better. I am not experienced enough.
This hobbie pays you back real quick.. I started drums 3 years ago and made SO MUCH MONEY BECAUSE OF IT!!! I added 3k-5k per month some weddings here and there and saving money on studio sessions by being knowledgeable on drums vs just being a singer .. I saved like a total of 20k paying another person AND MADEE 20k this hobbie rocks!!!! And now my life
Awesome! Buut, the snare mic takes all the sounds for kick,toms, cymbal, once i muted it, it sound great! The ambience mics are useless and they're on max volume.
U could but u still need a way to record the sound into the laptop. Which an interface does that. But then if it’s a cheap interface u might not be able to record each track for each drum individually. U will be able to record only 1 solid sound and then u can’t control the tones or volumes for each drum…
No. I think he just thought it was cool to say the input channel 🤷♂️ Check out Kohlerkeller, Sonicscoop or Rick Beato if you want to know how to record drums properly.
It doesn't fu(#kin matter what the hack laptop/tablet/PC brand you use, mate! What matters is the operating system of the device you have (Windows/Mac). In this case he is using Apple Macbook, where Garageband DAW (Digital Audio Workstation) software comes free in all apple devices.
Thank you so much for the support! 🎉

When you are an absolute newbie, it helps a lot to have a true step by step tutorial. Thank you!
Excellent video. You explained everything so well without "over talking". This is how a video should be made. Kudos!😊
OH MY GOD YES, ALEJANDRO, YOU MAKE ME HAPPY 🔥🥁🥁
The only problem is, all the karens and angry neighbors might get in the way when you're trying to record.
Buy a 1 hectare lot and build a house there with No neighbor hahaahah
Corrención: el cable que conectaste no es USB type C, es USB type B. Sigue con el buen trabajo!! Un saludo d sde Portugal.
Love from Sri Lanka 🇱🇰🇱🇰🇱🇰💖

Desde Perú🇵🇪
Alejandro I like your videos so much if it was possible can you send me the e kit for a video in Kenya
Thank you for sharing 🙏
Thx man this really helped no one Else can explain better then u. I never understood them
Hey man great video and great content if I can give you one tip there’s a lot of stuff you missed that you could of talked about to make the drums sound even better when miking a drum kit
Like with the overheads makes sure there at the same level cause if your overhead mics are not at the same level then your drum recording is gonna sound out of phase
The other thing talk about how far or close your mic should be to the kick drum
Same with your snare mic and Tom mics
You did a great job on the video there’s just a few importing things you should say and cover in the video to mic a drum kit
But you did a great job and keep up the great work
I’m a audio engineer and a music producer so I know all about this stuff
And I also run a UA-cam channel where I teach mixing and recording music
But keep up the good work your doing great
Thanks for this need it in my own Drum Studio
Thank You for the good and informative video🙏🔥
It would be great if you could show us a low budget version (especially less equipment, i.e. which instrument needs definitely a microphone). For sure the sound quality will decline but it would be better than nothing🙏

thank you my frıend!!! perfect content!!! its very helpfull
I've never seen you play the kick drum with sandals before, except in your All I Want For Christmas drum cover video.
I can’t play it with sandals, I always put on sneakers 👟👟
Very informative! Thank you! 😊
Hello from bali indonesia alejandro.great tutorial....
Awesome 😎
Awesome. My next purchase - drum mics and a mixer.
You are amazing bro. Thanks a lot
Hey when is THOMANN coming to Asia bro
Bro you are the coolest guy I’m going to get all the things you said Im this incredible vid. Im a kid trying to post drum videos🙂🙂 and I really appreciate you man ❤ your awesome 😎
Can you explain the difference between 8 channel interface vs 8 channel mixer?
Does the USB record separate tracks? Usually, it doesn't, or does it have to be a specific interface? If so...what? 😂 i have no idea
This is the best explanation video I’ve ever seen!! 🙏🏽🙏🏽👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽
We are amazing at giving you support, but you are the best with drums bro.
What do you have to do to actually play music through the ear phones at the same time you’re playing?
So helpful thanks 😊
Hi, What will be the result if I use my Yamaha MG16X Audio mixer instead on the interface ?
Dudeee, thank you so very much for this Video….!
I also use an audio software, similar to the one you're using, but for my after school theater class.
Do the number of mics have to equal the number of drums we have
Why should we follow the order to plug in the xlr in to interface
Thank you I GOT the alesis kit
Great video you saved me a lot of time very helpful video thanks mate
Im 10 years old and i want to be a good drummer.
I think this is a great video to learn how to record.
But a interface is very expensive.
Do you know how i can record with not a lot of money?
Buy a $10 Pyle mic and a XLR to USB cable. It's what I used many years ago.
So I had a question I don't have a interface I use a 8 track tascam could I still connect 8 mics like I could to the interface or is that process different?
what is the model interface did you use
can u drop the link for all this equipment?
Thank you soo mach from this beautifully vedio
Awesome video…but what about the music?
If I want to play a cover of a song how I record the song with the drums I play together?
Just upload the audio file of the song to the GarageBand project. When you hit record to record the drum mics, the song with play at the same time
Thank you my friend :-)
Hello you should do one for the electric ones!!
For the e-drums you can get the sound via an amplifier or you can just connect it to your computer and use a software like Ableton or Studio 1 and record and adjust the sounds from there, but Alejandro can explain much much better. I am not experienced enough.
how do you listen to backing track while recording?
If i want to record my drums, as i play a song in youtube, how can i do it, having my inears connected to the interface?
I have a question. What other laptops and software will work because macs are very expensive
When I get to step 6 and selecting like the inputs or whatever I only get 2 options
My friend Alejandro Sifuentes i am Anderson
Does the order in which you plug the mics in matter?
Hello from Armenia 🇦🇲🇦🇲🇦🇲
Armenia rules!
I live there too
Thanks Brotha!🙏🏽
If i use an adapter that turns usb c into Lightning can i use an iPad instead of an Mac?
I'm assuming you use premier pro to edit your videos, right?
950 dollars for his mic setup (not including stands), i should have picked some cheaper hobbie 😅
This hobbie pays you back real quick.. I started drums 3 years ago and made SO MUCH MONEY BECAUSE OF IT!!! I added 3k-5k per month some weddings here and there and saving money on studio sessions by being knowledgeable on drums vs just being a singer .. I saved like a total of 20k paying another person AND MADEE 20k this hobbie rocks!!!! And now my life
Hi, I'm a very beginner. Your video is hope for me.😃 Can you tell me how to use this method at a live performance?
Pls do a video how to add a cover music after you made that setup..
How to make a cover music video.
How can you tell if the microphone is lined up with the drum head.
Are there any other good free audio software ? I do not have an Apple computer but a PC.
Can I use static Microphone to REC ambien-1 and 2?
Hey next please give an idea for how in mobile phones to extract and edit audios from youtube vedios??
Awesome! Buut, the snare mic takes all the sounds for kick,toms, cymbal, once i muted it, it sound great! The ambience mics are useless and they're on max volume.
Can I play music and play over it too?
do you exactly need that audio interface or can it be any?
RAUL 🎤🥁🎤🥁
1 question, why do most kick drum heads have a port hole in them.
Can i use Audio mixer instead of interface?
I’m wondering the same thing
U could but u still need a way to record the sound into the laptop. Which an interface does that. But then if it’s a cheap interface u might not be able to record each track for each drum individually. U will be able to record only 1 solid sound and then u can’t control the tones or volumes for each drum…
Is there a specific reason why your snare is in 4 or why your kick is in 1 or does the order not matter?
No. I think he just thought it was cool to say the input channel 🤷♂️
Check out Kohlerkeller, Sonicscoop or Rick Beato if you want to know how to record drums properly.
How does he have in output screen record with audio
Thank You!
Thank You! :)
Could i use garageband to play live instead of using it to record?
What made you come up with the idea to sell your drum equipment?
How do I play to a song using this
So easy!
Alejandro ya tengo mi propia batería
Is it better to use a mixer?😅
Do you add the song you're covering as a track?
I think so
what if only 2 tracks are showing but you have multiple tracks available?
what software you are using? if i use different laptop brand
It doesn't fu(#kin matter what the hack laptop/tablet/PC brand you use, mate! What matters is the operating system of the device you have (Windows/Mac). In this case he is using Apple Macbook, where Garageband DAW (Digital Audio Workstation) software comes free in all apple devices.
