Great work!! I play vintage keystone badge Ludwigs - 8x12, 16x16, 14x20, 5x14 and man they can really cover a lot of bases. The 16x16 allows you to do 'ride' the floor tom in a way that a 14x14 can't, and it still sounds killer tuned up or down.
Awesome Video! Please do more videos. Drums, Bass, Vocals, Guitars, Pianos!!! People love this stuff and are eager to learn from the best. Thank you for sharing this wealth of information.
Great video. I'm not a drummer, I'm a guitarist and bass player, but I'm fascinated by great drummers and the kits they used and sounds they got. It's really interesting how the best drummers always have their own unique and recognizable sound. Ringo sounds like nobody else, and so do Charlie Watts, John Bonham, Keith Moon and a whole long list of other great names. The way that drums are miked and recorded is a really interesting subject.
The holy grail IMO is Revolver. That's the real transition sonically between their early period and studio years. They were discovering the techniques that they would use in 67, but hadn't yet become a formula, so they were experimenting. For instance, the 1966 drum sound is unique. They didn't use as many mics as in 67, but added a snare mic, and began using the fairchild.
I always thought the hi-hats on I wanna Hold Your Hand,,,well that whole Beatles album was neat. Played just a little open but I always felt it was 15 inch hats as well. Well done on the education.....thanks
The premier drums he used were called Premier Mahogony Duroplastic finish. The sizes were imperial, which was before the metric system came along. Great video, really interesting!
This is so good. Of course you could chuck in a red herring like they used a 987654321/A and 99% of us wouldn't know but we all nod sagely like we've a hope of following you.
I have the same Premier kit but in grey oyster. The toms need pre-international heads - you're correct with the mounted tom - it's about 11 7/8", but the floor tom is also a little smaller than a 16 - probably 15 7/8 - very frustrating, but you can still order them through a reputable Remo dealer; "Pre-Int' heads. The bass can use a 20" standard head, but it fits real tight!
Please do Abbey Road drums. Isn't that when Ringo added a Tom? I only watch YOUR channel. The most interesting I've ever seen. You guys are absolutely amazing. THANK YOU!!!!
There's a few examples of that on Beatles songs. But there are two other blatant examples of it. Led Zep's Since I've Been Loving You which actually gives the song a wonderful raw feel. And The Searchers version of Needles And Pins, best if you have the stereo version played through headphones. Once you hear it, it'll annoy the hell out of you every time you hear it from then on.
Just found this video, the STCs and the Coles are 300 ohms as standard, the 50 ohm version was a special order I have STC Nos105 and 411 and they are both 300 ohm
@@BoulevardRecording you can tell which impedence they are by the little badge on the rear of the mic just above the suspension mount. If it is flush with the body it's 300 ohms if it's recessed it's 50 ohms, usually there's a number there but it can wear off
The Premier kit was mahogany duroplastic. It’s similar to an oyster tigers eye & cut diagonally, it does get called root beat but it’s not a sparkle finish. I own one
great. thx. Can you do a side-by-side comparison of 888 811 and 815. would love to hear the difference. I have the Abbey Road vinyl VST and it sounds good.
@@BoulevardRecording -- hey thx. I ended up buying the Waves J37 emulator plugin and I hear more fullness on the low end on the 815 setting vs 888 and 811 which are more are similar. I also tried your idea of pushing it, and yeah what i hear it more smoothness with the 888 and 811, and more crunch on the 815. Not sure if these results would hold true for the hardware as well. Even though I love the 60s production over the 70s, when I use the J37 I always use 815, which was more around for the 70s. I know it's just one setting in the production chain, but that's just what I'm hearing. cheers
If you check out the class I did for Pro Mix Academy we did the drums on that part ! We did how part of Abbey Road was recorded. promixacademy.com/course/re-recording-the-beatles-abbey-road/
Microphonology yes later about mid 1964 they switch to the D20 on kick and bass amp and AKG D19 on overhead. That video will come next ! Looks similar to the D12 but has a roll off circuit

You'll see the REDD 37 (or was it a 51?) throughout the Get Back series. It was 8 in but only 4 out. Interesting concept. I think they tied two of them together although Glyn Johns was only seen sitting behind one. The other was off to the side.
Thanks for this series. One request - Please solo the instruments/mics, etc. as on the Bass video, I only heard you playing in the mix. Cheers from Seattle!
I'd love to see you do a 'what-if' video on the theme of "what if Studer had made a whole suite of J37 machines, from a J37-4 to a J37-16?", exploring the implications of having a J37-4 for PPM and WTB, the J37-8 for AHDN, BFS, H!, RS and Revolver, and finally getting a J37-16 to do SPLHCB on! And everything being recorded in Abbey Road / EMI Studios No. 3. Because that Waves plug-in suite will let you do that! :D
Oooh I like that idea.... And Brendan (the drummer in this video) has a Hohner pianet ! Strings would be the trick to do during COVID ! May be a while but I’ll put that one down
SINCE THE MASTER TAPE OF SHE LOVES YOU/I'LL GET YOU WERE RECORDED OVER OR LOST ,CAN YOU RECREATED THOSE TWO TRACK IN THE ORIGINAL FORM THE TWIN TRACK TAPE OR EARLY STEREO PATTERN ?
IMHO The STC overhead was over-EQ'd, with ribbon mics the richness of the sound, Ringo's High Hats for instance would be much thicker sounding as well as the other cymbals, (along with the way that velocity-mics pick up the 'shape' of the sound as well), is kind of what it’s all about and too much highs can cause you to mix to the highs therefore lowering the gain and masking out a lot of the richness of the sound.
Too many highs only kill the richness of the sound If there is a lot of phase shift. Those RS127 boxes were shelf’s so phase shift was very minimal. Richness was still there. They also cut a lot of lows in those days because of Vinyl
To all of Ringo’s knockers, which other drummer has had so many other drummers trying to copy his style and were influenced by him, even buying Ludwig drums, sending sales through the roof. Just the smarties who love to criticise...how good are they 🙄
Fals! You need a neumann u47, an redd37 or telefunken tube mixer, an telefunken m10 or T9 or studer c 37 or j37 to round up! And it need 50s/60s drum and cymbals from that time to! And a big good recording room! Thats the way you must record it! ;)
Well if you watched, I did use REDD channels made by Chandler and the U48 (not 47) was the mic of choice and was setup as a vocal mic. They never used those mics on the drums
@@BoulevardRecording i know, it was wride by me to say what made the 50s/60s records in sound! ...and for sure it was the neumann u47 for vocals and Instruments as well! ...today it is moste used for vocals (becouse its very expensive like tlf mixer pre amps) ...but back at the day thay was used as allround micros! Its a "großmembranmikrophon röhre" ...i want not say some bad thing, only wgat the real sound made in that time periode! Greetings
Interested if some who is good on drums could play all beatles songs on drum way Pete Best done it so how Beatles had sound on drums with Pete instead of Ringo?
At Abbey Road in the early 60’s and yes even in 1966 had rules on low end. They had lots of rules. But mostly because of vinyl since that was the medium. Cutting lathes were very primitive and were all cut manually so unwanted low end can easily push a groove out if it’s too much for the lathe, then they would have to scrap that whole side and start cutting again . Americans at the time (Motown) had looser protocols hence why McCartney wanted that “Motown” bass sound
The drum wrap is officially called Mahogany Duroplastic not “root beer sparkle.” It isnt a sparkle finish. The shells were pre-international, meaning that they were actually metric, not undercut. Eventually drum companies standardized the head sizes. Remo still makes these metric heads with a part number, including “PR” for Premier/pre-international. He also had his beloved Swivomatic mount put into these drums.
Thanks for the info ! Root beer swirl was the color it was sometimes referred to. And yes the swivomatic came later, he installed it onto his 2nd Black Oyster kit. His first still had the rail consolette Mount. You can see McCartney using it on his first solo album.
Yes the 2nd downbeat kit has the swivomatic. First one did not. Here’s a shot of it at McCartney’s house when Ringo let him use it to make his first album images.app.goo.gl/KEfro7PsMQ9k8fGEA
yes true, I just meant "undercut" compared to the standard US measurements we are used to today. And yes, I meant rootbeer swirl or mahagony duroplast. For some reason, I had my first ever drum kit- a rootbeer sparkle ludwig club date, stuck in my head.
the 12" tom is tuned very high, higher than one would think. 14" vintage ludwig floor toms almost always sound good, and I usually let them do their thing if the bottom is tuned a little higher than the top. maybe a 4th difference. get the batter side to have just enough of a low note and keep thinking "she loves you!"
Thank you, that was very interesting. In the 80s I was recording with a "Tascam 38" 8 Track recorder. Now in modern times with computer software (Cakewalk). Can you explain, why to use tape recorder simulator plug ins. And what do they do?
With recording fidelity having come so far with digital many feel that the recordings have become too clean or sterile of any artifacts that might give the recording a unique tone or feel. The tape adds saturation to the audio as well as augments the eq in other ways. Though, with a real tape machine like the 38 the playback wont always be perfect(might drag or pull instead of running at a steady rate like 7 1/2" ips and fluctuate the audio) it will be minor but little intricacies like this are desirable for some peoples music tastes. It can take a quiet guitar and vocal and give it a presence and a feel that you wont get straight digitally.
@@bacekrecording Ah, I see. I make this effect with recording in my kitchen and using cheap microphones. (just joking) Thanks a lot and all the best, greetings from Hamburg, K.K.
Every channel ! The more the better, thats the idea of the plugin to get tape sound individually on everything. Thats whats recommended to get the "sound" from that plug
Ringo was a left handed drummer with a right handed kit. That alone made him special, and creative in his movements.
Every drummer played right handed back then. Learning drums included marching & that means everyone in formation with a deep drum hanging off the left hip all playing right hand technique
@Wakanda stfu
Often wondered why he didn't just swap his hi hat, rack tom and floor tom positions and play naturally?
@Wakanda Commonly referred to at the time as the "luckiest bastard in Liverpool"
Travis Barker is also left handed
You guys are my favorite resource for Beatles recordings thus far. No gimmicks, no massive amounts of jump cuts, no corny voices and intros. Just solid info.
My favorite drumming from any Beatles song has to be from “I want to hold your hand” Ringo did such a good job on it and it’s very catchy!
I love Ringos drum roll on the Day Tripper intro. 😉
Hey it's Brendan from Ably House
that’s right! cheers!
This video is pure gold. Please post more drums records from beatles! Its amazing. Thank you

He also plays Ringo in a couple of Beatles bands... GREAT
For Come Together/Hey Jude they threw a sheet over the kit, snare included and Ringo played on top of the sheet to get that muted vibe

Well done on the education.....thanks
yo man these videos kick ass. thanks so much for this awesomeness.
Love your Beatles video series! Very cool! For the Ringo drums it's also important to use a slightly squeaky Ludwig Speedking ;-)
The premier drums he used were called Premier Mahogony Duroplastic finish.
The sizes were imperial, which was before the metric system came along. Great video, really interesting!
Yes! Apologies for the mixup... We may have one coming up for a Please Please Me video
Yes, he had a 14 x 4 Premier royal ace snare with that first kit.
The colour of Ringo’s first drum kit is a patterned celluloid finish called M Mahogany according to the old premier catalogs
I really love this! MORE!!

Why did record companies put restrictions on the low end? Was it because speakers couldn't handle it back then?
