Hi Friends! In this video I'm recording a very particular Drum sound at Studio One at Sunset Sound. We were going for a classic Motown/Stax and Atlantic sound for these tracks, no hole in the kick, toms with little sustain and cymbals with a lot of personality vs a splashy wash! Which studio would you like to see us record at next? Let me know below! Be sure to check out the Cheap vs Expensive Drum recording Video here:- kzbin.info/www/bejne/e36vi59rZ8atbMkm24s

[@blakecurtis7809]

Electrical Audio in Chicago. Steve albini. Or Trident studio in California, Juan Urtega. Juan mostly does death metal bands, he did do a Ted Nugent album. But he does outstanding work.

[@MuricaMusic]

@MorbidManMusic +1 for that! Would be hugely interesting to see how the pros get on in our makeshift studios. Would definitely learn a ton from that!

[@BrandonKraemerbk]

@@blakecurtis7809 +1 for a Steve & Warren summit at Electrical Audio. Pack some black coveralls Warren ;-)

[@ewancunningham]

I'd like to see you record in my tiny home studio, it's got some real challenges like the lack of any sort of floor space and sensitive neighbours!!

[@danpeltier1354]

MY STUDIO WARREN AHAHA

[@bigrivermedia762]

That snare sounds so damn great through the 47's capturing the high room.

[@Producelikeapro]

Big River Records thanks ever so much my friend! You Rock!

[@Newsky79]

The complete breakdown including real time isolation of mics and boosts so that we can see/hear is such a gift! Thank you SO MUCH for ALL of your content @Warren Huart The knowledge and experience that you share with us is very appreciated! :)

as a keen hobbyist, making pretty awful tunes using PC based tools like "Reason" with a novation keyboard, I simply LOVE these videos from Warren, super informative, super clear to understand and brilliantly produced, also great hearing pro's converse in the true language of the pro studio.......brilliant vid and once again thank you..

[@AudioReplica2023]

I Love API550's for mixing. They just makes you work fast , straight to the point , and no frequency fuckarounditis syndrome. LOL

[@Producelikeapro]

Haha I hear you Isaac!

[@andrewarbogast1]

My favorite type of videos from @Produce Like A Pro I know it's not the exact same thing because it's plugins but I start with Waves 550As on each drum as if they're "tracked" with them.

[@Producelikeapro]

Hi Andrew Arbogast that’s fantastic to hear my friend! Glad to be able to help!

[@ShawnskiEubanks]

When you fired up the mono talk-back mic it sounded like an old Motown recording all by itself. What an amazing room and assortment of gear. Thanks for sharing! Your channel rocks even when you're off on vacation.

[@Producelikeapro]

Wow! Thanks ever so much! I Really appreciate it! Yes, lovely to be on holiday!!

[@nickwallette6201]

Reminded me a bit of Robert Plant's Manic Nirvana. Man I love the sound of that record. SO good.

[@TresSeaver]

I thought exactly the same: that talkback was perfect all by itself for that sound.

[@marvinshenk]

When I was a working engineer, the drums were always my favorite thing to record. I recorded alot of metal/hard rock, and the setup I developed for the kick drum was- 1. No outer head on the kick drum. 2. A sandbag placed inside the kick with a Shure PZM mic sitting on the sandbag. 3. An AKG D 112 or Senn MD421 or Shure Sm7A inside pointed at the beater. 4. A condenser mic about two feet in front of where the outer head would be. 5. A tunnel made from packing blankets covering the kick and all mics on the kick. With a setup like that, I would get a super fat and isolated sound every time.

[@jorrickthole6505]

Totally agree on the no resonator. For metal it makes the kick controllable and less boomy. Less gating necessary. And a fuck ton of parrallel compression 😁

[@Czyszy]

I can't wait for the Sunset Sound drum multisamples you've announced.

[@Producelikeapro]

Yes! Coming soon my friend!

[@accobodla]

Been a Pro Engineer for a long time but this is lovely to hear. Great studio and of course a marvellous engineer.Thanks.

[@Producelikeapro]

Thanks ever so much my friend!!

[@gribb5967]

Something I would like to see discussed is the use of tape on cymbals. You see it all the time in videos but people rarely discuss in any sort of detail. Maybe for a future video? Cheers.

[@Producelikeapro]

Gribb 59 absolutely my friend!

[@splashesin8]

I love the idea of being able to just quickly and tactilely get so much done. Thanks Warren'

Between you, Beato, and Neely I’m learning so much. It’s like one on one courses with the best professors on KZbin. Thank you for all your hard work.

[@Producelikeapro]

Hi Sam Gunn wow! Thanks ever so much my friend! I really appreciate it!!

[@burnradio9681]

Who's Neely? Sounds like something I want to check out too :)

[@soejrd24978]

There are some small kicks, like Khruangbin uses (really small ones) and they have such a great tight and boomy bottom end. I love the sound of those kickdrums.

[@Producelikeapro]

Thanks for sharing!! I appreciate your insight!

[@TimKaseyMythHealer]

Did anyone else notice the irony of a million dollar studio and a $70 kick drum purchased on Craig's list? Reminds me of Eddie Van Halen's guitar used on the first Van Halen album (also recorded at this same studio) was something under $200.

[@Producelikeapro]

Hi Tim, thanks for your comment! Instruments have never had to be expensive to be great! The 'Stairway To Heaven' Acoustic, Danelectro, Silvertone, Harmony, 70's Yamaha Acoustics, some of the best cymbals with tons of character are the cheap Paiste Cymbals from 70's and early 80's, the list is endless! Heck one of most famous mics ever of course is the AKG D19, The Beatle mic, that was AKG's base level dynamic! One of the Basses that we used that day was made of plastic and was $40 when new!

[@TimKaseyMythHealer]

@@Producelikeapro Yes,, the Danelectro (played one of those in a music store a few years back) had more character than any guitar I've ever played. The sales guy knew this and thought I might like it. It looked so cheap with that metal round bar for a pickup.

[@Producelikeapro]

Yes, indeed@@TimKaseyMythHealer! Most of my favourite instruments are fairly inexpensive or home made! Think the 'Red Special' Brian May's guitar for instance!

[@jppagetoo]

@@Producelikeapro Ding! First Queen reference on this video! Do I win a prize for finding it first?

Brilliant, got my old engineer juices flowing. Thanks for sharing and from such a legendary studio too. Lovely to see the old AMS reverb and delay boxes in the racks as well. 🙌

[@adrianwagner336]

what a big booming sound you got from the cute lil kick!!

[@Producelikeapro]

Hi ADRIAN WAGNER haha exactly!

[@mark52111]

$40 vintage Japanese kick drum, with budget/student lugs (6). Sounded amazing. Love it.

[@ChristianIce]

When Warren is really pissed off with you, you'll hear him saying "You're like 400 Hz to me!" :)

[@alphaomegamusicstudios8467]

Very well broken down and great explanation on how you got the drum sound! So fun seeing Sunset room 1! Good stuff Warren. Thanks!

[@boxabeatrecordings6309]

Great, great information that connects drum part to microphone choice to location to EQ. BTW, I was blown away by the sound of the high room mics. I was drooling all over my screen :-). Thank you Warren!

[@the72u7h4]

I love the overhead only sound of that kit, it's so lively. I'd just roll that way :)

[@Producelikeapro]

Yes! Great overheads in that amazing room, with a great drummer who plays evenly!

[@martinsarango5635]

Matt is one of the coolest people in the world. Plus he's an amazing drummer

[@MarcBecker_Music]

Great breakdown Warren, thank you. This drum kit in this room sounds awesome.

Indeed Marc! You're very welcome!

[@johnmorgan4921]

Love Sunset Sound, always learning something new!

[@Producelikeapro]

It's such an amazing studio John!

[@BrandonKraemerbk]

In a session like this, do you record all the settings of the control room gear on paper so you can recall it? What would be really interesting for some of your audience is to see a diagram or a recall sheet of your setup.

[@davidcurtis4478]

Cool Warren, hope you're well dude. Keep the passion! DC

[@Producelikeapro]

Thanks ever so much David!!

[@nickrobinson2276]

Awesome video! Love hearing those overheads and rooms isolated. There is something special about the api 550s. I only use plugin versions but a little mid scoop, top and bottom boost just sounds so good.

[@alexleedrums311]

That was awesome. Thank you for this!

[@ectyka]

Nothing like a clean and organized recording studio 👌🏽

[@drummerjeroensimons]

Thanks very very much Warren for this golden video!!! I hope to record in the future there too (maybe with you and David, I keep that open..;) ) I feel blessed that I could record in the famous Wisseloord Studio 1, Hilversum, The Netherlands in my mid twenties with Epica... I really enjoyed the crew/studio-environment there too.. In the morning they even tuned my drumkit, that kind of professionalism and higher standards and working TOGETHER for the bigger picture is what I love man!!! Later I worked as a sessiondrummer with Hot club de Nashville ( Dave Pomeroy/Pat Bergeson , who worked with Vinnie too...) Moral of the story is: They all were very friendly, passionate, talented, blessed and no ego... My deepest respect for anybody!!! (I hate bragging and jealousy, its a waste of time..) And this awesome PLAP Academy too!!! Let, s help eachother the best we can!!! :) :) Have a good holiday Warren!!!!

Enjoyed watching this video! Yes it would be interesting to see you do a video using old cheap microphones and minimal microphone setup ,etc. I love the Motown and James Brown ( early 60s / early 70s) recording sounds, it would be interesting to see how you can reproduce those sounds !

[@Producelikeapro]

[@brunomaiamusic]

Must admit, seeing you in action in that live room out of that control room totally changed the effect of my initial bias. You mixed down your image. That kick drum miking is fierce. I think that (what I believe to be Ambassador Fiberskin) no hole worked well to my (I know you r ears find it plastic) Yamaha HS7s, like a kick ass. the tuning of that immaculate response Fiberskin being lower ( what I believe lack to a lot of tom tuning these days) resonate over the kick tone and the bleed to everything else. This is to be cataloged for further use. No muffling? Even the snare harmonics blend in and are great . The zilds constantinople , mate are multi character! A ride and a medium ride of those would do any gig, with those thousand tones. And the irish Jameson under my words may explain me admitting I totally changed my mind about you. Well done. You can rest assured of a job well done, mate.

How to mix drums step one: Cut 400hz

[@Producelikeapro]

Niklas Airaksinen pretty good start to remove the low mids! Typically I cut 350 in the actual mix! However 400 as a fixed point on the @sunsetsoundrecorders console is a great start!

[@sinenkaari5477]

Low mids in my mixes is the thing i started to focus on more about one year ago becouse of your videos

[@neilregan2488]

That was my take away too, other than when recording place mics all over your house and possibly put one in your neighbours backyard, get the real feel of the neighbourhood in your mix.

[@jurgenschuler8389]

That drum sound is amazing. I especially love the sound of the cymbals, the snare and the floor mics, literally throwing some Neumanns on the floor. One question: What made you print the EQ? I've never seen you at Sunset Sound printing the 550As before. Thanks for answering and sharing! You rock!

[@Bluelagoonstudios]

My favorite big studios in the world, Sunset Sound, if you follow the podcasts they make are mind-boggling, what is made there is enormous, back in the day. And I'm happy Paul keeps it open. A big giant left us the Capitol studio's, that's sad. Back then these studios were open 24/24 can you imagine that? And still these API consoles, I'm in love :) errr I can't believe they have a Behringer 8024 in there, still. With the AES/ EBU option they sound decent, but those analog converters are sssssssssssssss so not usable. I have still a 9024 and a 8024, but they are used to filling up rack space.

[@nicholasholmes1871]

Hi Warren, great videos btw. They've been super helpful & they're always thorough which is amazing. These are the best videos for learning drum micing. I was wondering if you have ever thought of going over drum sounds from specific acts/ artists? I've watched so many drum micing/ recording vids of yours that I feel like I have a good idea of what the kit is going to have on it & what it will sound like at the end. It would be great to hear an experts advice for obtaining other drum sounds though. For example would be Tame Impala, as far as I understand its a super simple set up as far as mics. I've seen some people get pretty close to his sound but id love to see if you could do any better. Obviously this is just a suggestion of something id personally like to see but I think theres a lot to be learned by us & you if you gave it a shot. Thanks again for the great content!

[@vutall]

Wow, the amount of money recording those drums is insane! Sounds amazing. That kick is huge. I was surprised at how much tome/ping the snare had from the top mic, but blended all together it masked well.

[@Producelikeapro]

Hi vutall thanks for your comment! I thought about the money aspect and then realised something very important and powerful! This studio has been around since the late 50’s and these mics are the same mics they have had for years! So for value for money I can’t imagine anything better!

[@nickwallette6201]

We live in a time of empowerment for amateur musicians, and it's nice to know you can squeeze a good sound out of a budget setup, but c'mon. If you have a $1M mic locker and racks of vintage gear, are ya really going to pull out the Shure PGs? nawwww... :-) It may only be 20% better than a rig 1/10th the cost, but if you can, you should, right?

Just brilliant! I know you don't work in home studios but would you consider doing a budget drum home studio video to show what you would do in that situation. Dealing with room acoustics and dampening as well to get a sound you would find acceptable. It's a long shot but I'm all outta Neumanns and my Coles is in the shop too.

[@africanviolet4773]

You are insanely helpful to amateur and semi-professional engineers. I am baffled by every new video you make. Thank you so much! Quick question; Can you talk more about how professional studios do routing? For example, I always see mixers with musicians in your videos at pro studios, which are I assume for headphone mixes. Not necessarily this sort of routing but I think a general video about pro studio/console routing might be helpful for a lot of people. Also is that a Cloud CL-2 I see with the Coles :P Wonderful work as always. Thank you so much!

[@Producelikeapro]

Wow! Thank you for the kind words Yigit!

[@RS-pp7ng]

I liked everything save for the fact that the positioning favoured the snare in the middle and the kick a little offset to the left. I generally prefer to set an axis where the kick and snare are 'aligned' in the middle. Just a personal preference.

[@PurpleMusicProductions]

Wow that was fantastic. Wow that was a lot of mics just for drums lololol. In my current situation, live drums is not an option, but it is fascinating none the less.

[@nickwallette6201]

It really does. I *LOVE* that it's a cheap clone bought for peanuts on Craigslist. For one, it shows what you can do with skill and good tuning. Second, it's just inspiring knowing that there are professionals out there holding on to the "if it sounds good, it IS good" philosophy, rather than getting wrapped up in pretense.

[@heartstringssound-Doug]

I'm going to ask what some might say is a stupid question, but I'm fairly new to mixing/engineer. Here goes; with all of the additional mics, top and bottom, 3 at kick, floor mics, wall reflection, etc., most of the mixing frequencies are dealing with 2 or more mics in the same frequency. Aren't you going to have a lot of frequency cancellation? I know you're going for trying to get the best sound. So do you choose which mic recordings to use and which to not? Thus eliminating cancellation? I'm anxious to get explanation of this. Learning a lot from the project. Thank you and Rock On! Doug Pinckney

[@harmonystudios1182]

[@Producelikeapro]

[@fireside007]

$$ . . . YOU ~ ROCK ! !

[@BrandonKraemerbk]

When setting the under snare mic, are you miking the snares or the head? Are you keeping the bottom mic the same distance to the batter head as the top mic or equidistant to the bottom head as the top mic is to the batter head, and then reversing phase?

[@johannessamuelsson6578]

How about using a boundary mic inside the kick? My other teacher at university uses a Shure Beta 91 as well as regular mica and a subkick for his kick sound.
