If you have a question you\u2019d like to ask, simply leave it in the comments below (or on YouTube), and I\u2019ll do my best to answer it! There is no criteria for these questions; If you&#8217;ve been wondering about something, ask away!<\/p>\n<p>I get asked about this topic quite frequently- Drum Samples. Should you use them or should you record everything live? Can you get a good kick sound without using samples?<\/p>\n<p>As you know, I have a small drum room, I use a limited amount of mics, and use a 12 channel Cadac console. I use one kick mic and I don\u2019t cut a hole in my kick drum. I mic the sound of the outside head. That gives me a lot of the \u201cumph!\u201d &#8211; I like that, I like the air of it.<\/p>\n<p>There\u2019s a top and bottom snare mic, there\u2019s one hi-hat mic which is actually an SM7, a pair of overheads, typically 1 mono room mic, 1 floor tom and 1 rack.<\/p>\n<p>When I say a \u201croom mic\u201d it\u2019s just a <a href=\"https:\/\/producelikeapro.com\/blog\/best-vocal-mics\/\">vocal mic<\/a> and it\u2019s about 4ft from the drum kit- so it\u2019s not really a room mic. There\u2019s no way to capture the ambiance of the room (there is none!), it\u2019s a very very small room.<\/p>\n<p>??If you&#8217;re curious to see how I use drum samples to get great tones without necessarily having access to a big live room, check out the 4 links below!<\/p>\n<p><strong>You can watch me use drum samples in each of these courses:<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><strong><a href=\"https:\/\/transactions.sendowl.com\/stores\/8853\/29183\">Anatomy of a Mix with Bob Horn &amp; Warren Huart <\/a>(50% OFF Today only)<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><strong><a href=\"https:\/\/transactions.sendowl.com\/stores\/9658\/29183\">Mixing Singer Songwriter\u00a0<\/a>(50% OFF Today only)<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><strong><a href=\"https:\/\/transactions.sendowl.com\/stores\/5606\/29183\">Anatomy of a Mix with Brad Wood\u00a0<\/a>(50% OFF Today only)<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><strong><a href=\"https:\/\/transactions.sendowl.com\/stores\/9099\/29183\">Mixing rock with Ulrich Wild\u00a0<\/a>(50% OFF Today only)<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>My room is absolutely perfect for when I\u2019m doing big fat dry drum sounds. But if I want to go ultra aggressive, like I did with Ace Frehley when he did that cover of \u201cFire and Water\u201d &#8211; The drums are massive on that! I was asked specifically by Greg Collins what studio we went to record those big drums and I sent him a photo of a \u201964 Ludwig sitting in a small bedroom sized live room.<\/p>\n<p>This is where samples, reverbs, etc., can come in! You can do all kinds of things with reverb and compression, but you cannot get a kick drum to sound that dramatically different.<\/p>\n<p>I have a lot of different samples that I use and I\u2019ll blend them. The majority of the one\u2019s I give away are one\u2019s that I\u2019ve made myself when I was working with The Fray, Aerosmith and a whole bunch of different bands!<\/p>\n<p><strong><a href=\"https:\/\/bit.ly\/2NO9say\">I have a ton of samples, which you can download here<\/a>.<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>That\u2019s how I work. I record here and use samples when I don\u2019t have a budget to go to Sunset Sound or United. However, if I do have the budget, I\u2019m in Sunset Sound, I\u2019m recording completely differently, and I don\u2019t need to use as many of those samples.<\/p>\n<p>The point is; I know what my end result should be for the song, and I know how to get there. Sometimes it is using just live mics, sometimes it\u2019s using an occasional sample, sometimes it\u2019s layering dramatically.<\/p>\n<p>I don\u2019t care how I get there as long as the results are great! That is the most important thing.<\/p>\n<p><strong>During this episode of FAQ Friday I answer the following questions:<\/strong><br \/>\n\u2022 Could you get your kick sounding just as good without the samples? What steps would you take in doing so?<br \/>\n\u2022 How does a mix sound on your monitors after mixing in headphones? Do you have to do any tweaking afterwards?<br \/>\n\u2022 Is there any way you could devote an episode to getting clarity in a mix?<br \/>\n\u2022 Would you wear a T-shirt that says, &#8220;NEVER HIGH PASS. Always Low Cut&#8221; ? \ud83d\ude42<br \/>\n\u2022 I\u2019ve been applying so many of these helpful techniques over the past few months in my mixes, and yet when I compare my mixes to commercial productions my mixes sound slightly \u201cdark\u201d. Is this normal?<br \/>\n\u2022 Do you always leave a stereo pair a pair ? or will something go on that will make you decide to separate them? Also what are the advantages\/disadvantages of recording in stereo?<br \/>\n\u2022 When is the next masterclass in LA?[\/vc_column_text][vc_video link=&#8221;https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/watch?v=NNBG_JQyyVg&#8221; align=&#8221;center&#8221;][\/vc_column][\/vc_row]\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>[vc_row][vc_column][vc_column_text]FAQ Friday is our weekly roundup of YOUR questions!
