Board: [DoveNet] Pro-Audio Discussion Subject: Miking Drums From: The Millionaire Date: Tue Sep 08, 2020 17:23 If you have played drums and needed to record them what kind of mics would you use? When I was in the studio we used: Kick: AKG 414EB Hat: Sennheiser MD421 or 441 Snare: Shure SM57 or 58 Toms: Neumann U87 or 89 Ride: Sennheiser MD421 or 441 Crash: Sennheiser MD421 or 441 We also used the thin short black clip-ons for less interference with the drummer. We also used XLR cables to connect the mics as well. $ The Millionaire $ ...."Will we ever fear the ecstasy of free thought?" - Thinkman... --- ■ Synchronet ■ Vertrauen ■ Home of Synchronet ■ [vert/cvs/bbs].synchro.net .
