Black Keys drummer Patrick Carney talks Zildjians, Vistalites, mic setups and more when we popped by to chat with him (and engineer Marc Whitmore) and ask about the sonic secrets behind his powerful sound.

[@timesink8947]

Really nice to hear the engineer discuss the specific signal chain of each microphone. Normally people just namedrop a few compressors, a few EQs, and stay real vague. By being specific, he gives us a chance to learn a bit from him.

[@norwegiansniper9713]

That´s because good engineers want people to develop​ their own sound and build a song from what they think sounds good not what some guy said on youtube.

[@danielallan5058]

Would you want that sound for your drums tho???...to me it sounds like the outboard gating coupled with the use of reverb to bring back what the gate took away seems like shooting yourself in foot!..I'm being honest I don't think the black keys albums we all know and love where recorded like that..magic potion didn't sound that way!

[@plan4studios977]

keep in mind when judging a drum sound- its about how they relate to a mix. This is how to get a dry, saturated, tight drum sound with character, not how to get a natural drum sound.

[@IsurusDrums]

Well I guess any drum sound is usable in a certain context and I also suppose that drum beats that are poorly played are usable but to me this video is a master class in what sounds bad both in terms of production and technique. Just my personal opinion.

Always funny how fanboys resort to "feel" and "character" when they get butt-hurt because somebody pointed out that their idol is just not that great of a player.

[@matthewdotson2186]

I've been getting good results with just one small pencil condenser above the drum kit a few feet pointed down at my snare, with an AKG D112 kick drum mic on the resonant head. So just two microphones. No phase issues. But I also produce simple, 60s sounding surf rock. The only downside is I gotta hit that snare drum hard, and then boost it with EQ. But I prefer the two microphone setup and Ableton Live to all of this hardware (that I don't know how to use and can't afford).

[@DylanBrady1]

agree

[@manysnakes]

It's not just that the overhead sounded better, it's that everything else sounded terrible. Just compressed, unlistenable drums that are indistinguishable from a drum machine.

[@BIGpony777]

think about it in the context of a mix? without the kick mic thats not gonna stand out at all and youll probably just end up dragging in a second kick sample over the original kick, so why not just record the og with its own mic, same with the snare, you need the snare to stand out theyre the most important percussive elements for this type of music. although the snare is very compressed it just sounds like they tried eqing the hats out and then compressing the snare and it was sloppy and quick- probably done quickly before the cameras came maybe

[@queenhenryviii]

@@manysnakes Ummmm… that’s the point. It’s almost as if you’ve never listened to Pat’s style of playing. He’s going for that slinky low fi hip hop drum loop sound as a homage to what he loves.

Stewart Copeland of The Police used a little compression live on his drum kit. It makes total sense. You can be little more adventurous and energetic knowing that you have that little safety net there that also makes the drums stand out in the mix.

My drummer played a vintage JC penny kit with a tattered Remo head on the bass drum. For some reason our high shine crash + Dark ride combo was super fucking rock n roll. We definitely got murdered for it. One over the kit, over snare or out in front of the kick has always been a good idea.

With that many separate sounds, I was definitely looking forward to hearing a nice balanced mix, but his final mix sounds like a toy. Dig his drums and him as a player, as well as his individual drum sounds, except for the snare (way to dead of a tone for a close mic, where's the punch?) I would rather hear the mono overhead for a final mix honestly, that thing sounded great. Also, open up GarageBand and dig the preprogrammed drums, those samples and riffs are amazing sounding, even when you try to find dry tones like these.

[@yanceyboyz]
