Agreed! Without question, some of the best teaching I've seen online, and the online education "market" (free or paid) is SATURATED, so that's really saying something.
It's all about the low end. I started messing with the parallel supersquashed compression the past few services. Really helps fill the room since we capped the drum shields. Thanks for that tip last week!
Thank you sir.. this is helpful, I wish I could have a personal interaction with you sir(probably mentor me).. I am passionate about making gospel music sound great
The motto of your teaching - If you are passionate about making Church sound great So People can "FOCUS ON JESUS" I really love that and feel the same always.. I'm a budding engineer, just started, I really get good perception n knowledge from your teachings, I Thank God for you brother and hope to meet you.. Thank you..
Blessed day brother !!! Can you please make a video about e-drums? Our situation is that we send one mono to the mixer therefore individual drums cannot be EQ'd. Thanks.
Top notch James! Do you think I could borrow that fancy jacket? You mention mixing Rock a lot in your videos. Have you ever considered doing a mixing “Rock” Video? Maybe some tips on eq and mixing rock specific music?
If you borrowed that jacket, it would double the number of times its been worn in the last 15 years 🤣 I use "rock" loosely... like "not jazz or funk"... I'm really not that hard of a rocker...
HI do you have tips for electronic drums? The difference between edrum sounds in a headset and on a Pa is huge. IN headset it's fantastic but on PA is not so good. Is their any way to arrive as close as possible to the headset sounds?
Hi! I use edrums in live performance (Pearl Mimic Pro with real drum samples and Roland TD50X with synthetic sounds...both without internal eq, comp and fx...) so I don't have mic bleed problem and the sounds are good and direct into the PA mixer...one channel for each drum! How do you suggest to use compressors? I have tryed, on snare for example, fast attack (1 ms) and slow attack (12 ms) but I can't ear a real big difference!? many thanks
to try and hear the difference, squash it a LOT and sweep the attack time back and forth... you'll hear it feel "thicker" with slower attack times, and "thinner" with faster attack times, like they're hitting it with a thinner drum stick. Then you can adjust it to a reasonable amount and keep it under control, and get the tone you want
If you are so dissatisfied with the way live drums sound, why don't you just get a drum machine? Or at least, an electronic set that comes with the sound you like?
@@diekrassegabelhd8205 "Secondly edrums dont sound as real as an Acoustic kit" Neither does what comes out of your mixer after you have "fixed" an acoustic kit. There are literally hundreds of drum sample sets, many which are mixed (compressed and equalized) for you by professionals. As for the fun of looking for problems to fix and the pride of fixing them, I don't know anyone who wants inferior input just so they can spend their mixing time on it. Do you also go looking for a third grade band so you can "fix it" to sound like the Cleveland orchestra? Maybe the guitarist should play with his feet. Better input = better output.with much less effort
@@dwstarke No thats not real my friend. An acoustic kit sounds different depending on how you hit it. No just a diffrent volume. Exept for high qualitiy edrum sets, an edrum typically doesent do this. And even the best ones out there which cost about 10k just play a diffrent sample depending on how you hit it. Acoustic drums can produce hundrets of sounds. And if the acoustic set is tuned well and you have solid mics which are placed in a good way, you dont have to fix much. You can easily make them "feel and sound" good in your room. So you dont spent too much time on getting them to sound right.
Attaway, I gotta say, you the man bro!!!!!! I love your teaching style
Thank you Tito! You're the man

Professionals get awesome results because of the skills, habit, and a plethora of sweet gear. A plethora? Yes El Guapo, a plethora.
Are you sure you know what plethora means? 🤣

First of all, fixing these problems can be fun and will get you proud if you get a nice sound.
Secondly edrums dont sound as real as an Acoustic kit😉
