Nice presentation, Mike. I have pretty much been following a similar workflow but this added some great insights that both confirm what I've been doing and also adding in lots of information which I hadn't come across until now. I pretty much use Cubase exclusively and this all translates perfectly to that workflow. One observation is that the Drums window is Drummer perspective which makes it more intuitive to use during the instrument selection phase of the setup if the mix is being handled the same way.

Mike Ochs Search „Telefunken Live from the Lab“ on KZbin. Telefunken is a manufacturer of microphones and the regularly host bands to record in their premises and with each video you get access to the multitrack recording of that particular songs. Two more advantages: You see HOW they play it and the recordings sound very good due to the high quality mics they used.

Very Cool Video Mike! I look forward to Part 2! I am so happy you released this video. I started doing this technique of routing all the mics out to their own outputs into my DAW so I could have more control over the sound via my Waves plugins. So far, the results have been outstanding. I look forward to seeing your next steps and picking up some useful tips in the next vid! Would you use things like parallel compression or 3rd party reverb on some of the drums? Really curious to your approach. Thanks!

Hi, thanks for commenting. Yes, I'm probably using parallel processing (not only on the drums) and maybe some reverb.

Hey Mike, as a new producer learning during Covid how to put together pieces without a live drummer, these videos are gold, thanks for them. I have a question, though. I see you have EZDrummer in your Dock, is there a reason you use it as a separate application in addition to Superior Drummer?
@MikeLuke4 жыл бұрын
Hey Kevin, thanks for watching. Well, basically two reasons: 1. When I just want to work briefly on a song idea by creating a MIDI loop, I usually open EZDrummer as it‘s lighter in CPU and faster. 2. I often make reviews about EZX expansions for EZDrummer2, so it‘s better to showcase them in that way.

@Bigwoody958263 жыл бұрын
I enjoy your videos, my questions is: Is it worth it, advantageous to click the function that allows SD3 to open a track for each part of the drumkit? I think it asks if you want this when you first add the SD3 vst to a track. What I don't like about it,is that it looks awkward when you have like idk 17 tracks there. Or maybe this should be used later for mix/mastering after all like you said it's better to start mixing from the SD3,if I understood correctly. Thanks, Rob
@abolit3 жыл бұрын
Thanks for the video. IMHO it's too complicated. I'd rather prefer to see some tutorial about handling all the channels inside SP3 having one stereo output in DAW , So next time I just open the SD3, load the groove and go. I'm afraid after making the adjustments shown in this video my music inspiration would be totally killed.

@MikeLuke4 жыл бұрын
deathrules001 It depends. Sometimes I use the bleeding, sometimes not. I once made a video about that topic as well. If you have a singer-songwriter track, enabling all the bleeding can add a certain „glue“ to the sound because this matches the song of live recorded acoustic drums. So if I use it, I do it on purpose and to have that effect. But keep in mind that mixing will get a bit more complicated then. Engineers usually try to reduce mic bleeding for good reasons ;)

Hi Marcin, the snare bottom mic in SD3 is stereo actually because they recorded it with two mics. Just use the panning knob in the SD3 mixer and bring it to the centre, this way it will create a mono signal. Hope it helps!
