EliasMooseblaster Posted May 4, 2016 Share Posted May 4, 2016 'morning all, Recently my band have been experimenting with trying to capture a half-decent live sound in our rehearsal space - would be very interested to get any feedback on it (especially from anybody who's done similar in the past!) http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JpEMPltQ8IM Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cheddatom Posted May 10, 2016 Share Posted May 10, 2016 Not bad at all! How are you recording it? Do you have a mic on the kick drum? The best tip I can pass on is to get the drummer to take it easy on the cymbals Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
EliasMooseblaster Posted May 13, 2016 Author Share Posted May 13, 2016 Thank you! Our guitarist is running as many signals as possible into a FocusRite mixer...can't remember exactly, but I think that's a kick mic and a few overheads around the kit. Then a mic on the singer and guitar cab, and a DI from my bass head (so post-preamp). (I've been trying to persuade him to buy some slightly "flatter" headphones for the mixing; whilst I'm impressed with what he's managed to do, I think his Apple earphones are boosting the bass frequencies slightly, which is why the kick and - at least in my opinion - the bass are a bit underpowered in the mix.)
