Nice video. The only comment I'd make is the mic technique shown here looks more like a slightly modified Recorderman technique. The Glen Johns technique has the floor tom mic way lower than what's being shown here. Not trying to nitpick here but your demonstration could lead to confusion. Otherwise, great video, great sounds. Nicely done. Hope to see more of these videos.

This is the "recorder man" technique , With a front mic acting as a close room position

Yeah, it sounds like they've mixed up the phases of the channels on the remote control. Cardboard, flat sound. It is not clear here why such a strange sound, whether the microphones were placed and recorded in such a way, or processed in the control room. The best option would be to post the raw audio from the recording. That every person could spin in normal quality and evaluate the sound. (I mean to compare all variants of recording: 3mic, XY, AB, ORTF, MultiMic from one installation, in one point of the room ).

In the video of Glyn demonstrating his technique he did place the mics much lower to the kit. Maybe at about 30 inches. But he wasn't picky about distance so long as the distance was roughly the same, and it sounded good. The other thing he emphasises is running good console preamps slightly hot (he worked with the Olympic 1, and disliked SSLs), with the master slightly cool. And I think that would result in a more in your face sound than in this recording. Because his goal was to capture the real sound the drummer was hearing, since he figured the drummer had worked out how to get the sound they wanted.

What about preamps? What was used for this demo?

Really great video. Good production, no fat, good and convincing sound.

That little TLM102 surprised me! Quite different, of course, but the high end was really smooth and pleasant.

Could you do an episode on how to properly record a Djembe too? And as an addition maybe the complete ensemble, Djembe (2 or 3 parts) Dundun, Sanban and Kenkeni plus their bells?

Thanks for the suggestion. We will discuss this with the content manager.😊

The micing sounds great, but Yamaha Recording Customs sound like cardboard boxes when they are not close miced.

Absolutely... All you have to do is magically pull $20-$30,000 worth of Neuman mics out of your ass.

5:40...what I think? I think this drums groove is a Steve Gadd Drum Grove...check out into the video instructional tape "in Session"!

Very interesting, thank you! The U67 sounds a little more real to me, but the TLM 102 is very close. The sounds are without EQ and without compression, right?

@GeorgNeumannGmbH Жыл бұрын

No EQ or compression was used in recording and mixing the drums. We did have to use a limiter at the mastering stage to get enough loudness for KZbin. But this only affects loud peaks, e.g. from the snare.

That was great, thanks! Also, interesting video direction!

@Szymon20000 10 ай бұрын

Great Video :) ) When I heard u67 i said to myslef "solid midrange punch but i would like to hear more cymbals/ high end" It depends what you need of course but for me tlm102 sounds brighter and I like it :) And it also shows how you can manipulate the timbre wthout using eq. Thats what legendary engineers were doing in the past :D

Will this work with, say, two Sm81 and an AKG414 for the “center”?

@DaveElke Жыл бұрын

Love these videos. Interestingly, I place the left mic lower and behind the floor Tom instead, still equidistant from overhead mic. Will have to compare the two now!
