Dead Drums in a Live Room with Jake Reed & Darrell Thorp at Studio 606

[@JakeReedmusic]

This was so fun! Thanks, Lauten, for inviting me in!

[@LautenAudio]

Thank you so much for being part of the family, Jake. You rocked it!

[@realitybeatslivedrumchanne8261]

Sounds rad man! Those hats at the end! 😮😮😮

[@logantodd6500]

Dude this is so crazy. We must be spirit brothers from across the country. I deaden my drums exactly the same way for this kind of vibe, I just use lil dollar tree clips on the rim for the folded bandana thing instead of gaff tape Got to work with Darryl in Nashville at RCA A. He’s a master. Love your vids, they inspire me a to keep pursuing the craft. You’re content helps is educational and makes me feel like I’m on the right path with my session stuff. Thank you

[@bumsibar6163]

Not just our sound, your playing sounds like an instant record. Absolute respect.

[@iengineer_247]

Jake The Great On Kit!!!!!

[@RecordingDrumsWithBrad]

This is a masterclass in drum recording. There are so many little bits of gold in the conversation between Jake and Darrell. Absolutely love this!

[@LautenAudio]

We are so glad! 😄

[@JakeReedmusic]

Darrell rules! So fun!

[@RecordingDrumsWithBrad]

@@JakeReedmusic Thanks to you both and Lauten Audio! Incredible amount of information in a short amount of time.

[@strickland306]

3 minutes in and I'm already declaring that this should be taught in school... EVERY school. Thanks for doing this!

[@LautenAudio]

Maybe one day 😄 We are so glad you enjoyed it!

[@1ntuition662]

what I thought

[@AndrewMasters]

So similar to my drum mic setup. Cool to see Jake chopping it up!

[@1ntuition662]

First of all, Jake Reeds drumming in this video, every note he plays, every beat, sounds like a record. Like music. Social media is very visual and so information on music is often quite biassed toward what "looks" right. Plus most drum and engineering industry's marketing advertorials are not exactly focussed on offering practical solutions that serve the music but rather on creating material desires and thus increasing their sales.I have been playing and recordings for a few decades, and everything Jake says is gold. All you need is a few mics, decent drums and really use your ears. Being a really, really killing drummer like him may help.

[@EvanVincent.]

This was cool to see. I have been following Jake Reed and his dead drum sound for a while. Such a killer sound and player. I loved his collab series with Sean Hurley.

[@hanbo123]

The 16th note hi-hat at the end was super smooth. Nice playin'!

[@ALLforROME]

Right on! Good stuff...

[@bradleycordaro]

really enjoyed this. Jakes "chill" approach and attitude combined with his chops and cheeky technical anecdotes are super entertaining and informative. big fan of his work. bravo all involved!

[@Famanortenaofficial]

I really appreciate these videos!🔥

[@poyrazaldemir6401]

This was my favorite in the series... I wish this was 2 hours long:)

[@oldsoulsound]

@JakeReedmusic I absolutely love everything about this. Amazing feel and playing. Incredible room....Such a super groovy vibe.

[@marcelb7259]

This is just so creative and spontaneous ! Kudos guys for this tremendous job.

[@tobiaswinter1358]

Most informative in the series so far!

[@LautenAudio]

We are so glad you liked it.

[@liljohnson420]

awesome video yes thank you jake is the man

[@AdamStachelek]

Firm believer in what Jake said. 8 lug snares go lower (and to me are less fussy tuning wise). Great video with a lot of knowledge dropped.

[@pal4597]

Killer! Thanks

[@matts.1190]

New Studio 606 drum content? Yes please!

[@LautenAudio]

🙌

[@Colo.Valenzuela]

the difference between jake´s room and this one is unbeliveble

[@angelorasmijn7306]

Jake Reed rules! 🤘🏼

[@LautenAudio]

Agreed 🤘

[@nicklangmusic]

Heck yeah, this was great! These have all been great!

[@LautenAudio]

We are so glad you enjoy them!

[@veloman59]

Great experiment with drum sound! 😁

[@StuartJrBarrett]

Excellent video! Keep them coming.

[@LautenAudio]

Will do 🙌

[@jhicks8989]

High tuned, resonant drums are my happy place, I genuinely found this video distressing but informative as ever!

[@LautenAudio]

😅

[@JakeReedmusic]

Oh dude, I love bopped out drums too. It’s another one of my favorite sounds. It’s all about what works best for the music.

[@dilankarun9172]

I agree, never cared much for the cardboard sound. But even hits like Yvonne Ellimans "If I can't have you" (James Gadson on Drums) or Ringos "Come together" had more life😛. They weren't lying .Truly "dead drums" ugh 🤮 🤣😂🤣 Great mic's though.

[@drumlabtaipei]

So interesting. Thanks for sharing this and please keep it up!

[@jesse_cole]

Leads with the Intro to "Hey Johnny Park!" Nice touch.

[@JakeReedmusic]

OMG I sort of did lol ... it's deeeep in the memory bank for sure.

[@firstboyonthemoon8876]

Damn, sounds sweet. I love dry drums like the early Band or early 70s Kinks recordings.

[@smidwillem]

Awesome, thanks guys!

[@LautenAudio]

Our pleasure!

[@diggmo]

Dang! Now I'm wanting to go back and redo some recordings! Thank you!

[@woody4269]

Sensational! Superb vid and breakdown of t sound. Really very cool. 🍻

[@danieldegeorges9993]

Jake Reed rules so hard

[@darrellroseborough7275]

Jake and Darrell you guys are a God sent! What a education all in a few minutes. Who’s to question you guys techniques? At the end of the day it’s how everything sounds in the whole contents of the mix .WTH those tubs sound great without the other instruments. It would be nice to hear exactly how they sound in a mix. Maybe next time guys. Keep up the good work and have a great and blessed holiday season.

[@-PAT-]

funny interesting... you bring such cool things, keep it up🤩👍🏼

[@LautenAudio]

Thank you. We will 🤗

[@zuu1701]

Im addicted to this channel!!!!! 😊

[@LautenAudio]

🥰

[@JulianFernandez]

this series rocks!

[@holliefitzzz]

so glad to see someone saying this! play quiet, crank the pre. sounds more heavy than smashing a drumkit up with a stick IME

[@LautenAudio]

💯

[@buzznightmare8433]

Using a crane as a mic stand is (In Darrels own words) so fucking rad man. Just love you guys.

[@iengineer_247]

Jake The Great On Kit!!!!!

[@atuanoiniin]

Good stuff guys!!

[@cyprienloreau7622]

YYYYYYESSSSS That one is really nice

[@dizmix]

BCM-10 chillin in the BG... 😎

[@MartinYamMoller]

Good stuff... The other in the series have been interesting. But this one was useful too, since this is the kinda drums sound that often go for👌... Next up 'live drums in a dead room'?

[@LautenAudio]

Maybe! 😁

[@drumdiscussion7776]

Wet, fat , funky, dark and subtle. Dig It !

Amazing. Now I need to know about "snares for care." :)

[@LautenAudio]

They come with Snare Mic, but you can purchase extras here 😄 www.lautenaudio.com/product-page/care-for-snares-snare-mic-bandana

@@LautenAudio Yet another reason to just order one. Thanks!

[@floatinganarchychannel3204]

Sounds amazing! But i prefer your studio recording sound, mix😊

[@brucelau7794]

Nice video again. How could you make the hihat mic filtered so clean, with isolating kick and snare ?

[@LautenAudio]

In this case, gentle playing and mic position

[@brucelau7794]

@@LautenAudio Get it. I’d give it a try. Thanks. BY THE WAY, purchased the snare mic last month and love it.

[@krusher74]

Its would be intereting to hear from people who recorded in the 70's, did they do all this stuff to get the similar sound or was it just concert toms and old heads. Were they using the internal dampers that most drums had back then?

[@C_475]

that 8 lug having less tension absolutely changed my life it sounds like a joke but Ive been wondering why my snare wont go as high as I want it to (I have a 6 lug snare of some cheapo off brand) I now know for my sound I want moar lug

[@knobross6703]

I'm glad Jake stuck to his guns because it's out of their comfort zone so I can understand it's awkward for them but he's in his zone , so if this isn't your thing then let somebody who's thing it is run the show!

[@SopranoPizzaJMFNJ]

Enjoyed the video. I would would never make my kit sound like this on purpose.

[@siriusfun]

Always love these vids! (the sound is a bit off to the picture over here?)

[@weehudyy]

All these sounds remind me of Richie Hayward's sounds on the Last Record Album ... Particularly the little solo at the end of Day or Night where he does his little nod to the Purdie shuffle and N'awlins all in under 2 minutes ... the tom sounds are just like that ... then along came gated f**king reverb and machines

[@Jrdaygoba]

It's missing the signature Jake Reed "sample pack"

[@kuriza69]

I was surprised you did not pay attention to the snare reso head. I always start by tuning the bottom head. That is where the magic happens. To my ears it sounded too loose and uneven

[@ingoodmusic]

Make a video how to make ABBA kind of drums

[@carlglacier9044]

is this a studio in edmonton?

[@willthedrumguy5539]

I know it’s for snare, hence the name, but what if you used it on toms? Would it work well?

[@LautenAudio]

You'll have to try it and let us know 😁

[@iengineer_247]

It keep saying the file failed when trying to open it

[@LautenAudio]

You may need to download it again.

[@ZacharyCerio]

old Taylor Hawkins tour kit from 2011 by the way

[@anthonythornton8478]

Was just thinking this! Great to see his drums still being used.

[@FVDaudio]

✨✨👏🏻👏🏻

[@danielwetzel7777]

Ron Swanson is a great drum teacher

[@Jacob.sahagun]

This was a sick video but there was definitely something awkward about the interactions between Darrell and Jake once Jake started dampening the bottom heads of the kit

[@martinwelke]

Yeah the awkwardness is in the live drums video too.

[@waltonbrown]

Maybe next time just play the boxes the drums were shipped in, save a lot of time getting sounds 😊

[@michaeldurand7792]

Not sure I understand why everyone likes this so much. It doesn’t sound like a drum kit.

[@AfferbeckBeats]

Well it doesn't sound like an accordion. What do you think it sounds like?

[@simaojoseph]

Almost a shameless plug for KZ’s

[@nathanweinstein2766]

Dude looks like the drummer from Black Breath

[@DeadSea1109]

>Supposedly demonstrating the sound of a kit in a live room >Effectively using only the close mics in the mix >Not even show what room mike sounds like soloed Why? Best sound in the video comes from camera's mic during the setup when you can actually hear the beautiful room (for instance, 9:35, 10:34, 11:30). I just don't get it.

[@BearbearbearbearbearbearRarrrr]

Dad drums.

[@jondragon8991]

So glad it was groove instead of chops..

[@dmark2639]

Too much gaff tape on the hi hat...

[@LautenAudio]

That's literally the point 😂

[@dmark2639]

I am loving the Lauten mics though. Are you planning to release a specialized KICK mic?

[@LautenAudio]

@@dmark2639 😁

[@markk7731]

Just say no to muffling drums.
