Well, since I saw that there's a spot to post some music, I might as well make a mention of this.
As I'm not horribly forum-posting savvy, and don't know how to post musics here without the help of youtube, I'll make something a little unique.
Just under a year ago, I graduated from an audio engineering program, which, for those of you who've never heard the term, an audio engineer is the cool person who records all that fancy music you listen to. 
As I'm one of them, over the course of my 2 year program, I recorded a fair bit of music, and played drums for at least as much. If anyone is interested to hear my work, either engineering or drumming, please post here and we can exchange emails, MSN, Skype, facebook, or whatever, and I can find a way to get you some files. Thanks! ;D

*Grins.* From that one soundtrack you sent me, this thread will probably get a lot of use when we have more members. I don't know how one would go about it without youtube either, but perhaps we can find a way. Your work was excellent, though, even if a bit different from what I'm used to. (And I listen to almost everything, excluding Rap/Hip-hop; so that means you have a lot of originality.  ) |

I'm definitely interested. You can email me at:

I'm always up for pretty much any type of music, except explicit rap/hip-hop. Seriously, anything: classical, rock, trance, bossa nova... anything. :'D

Thanks guys, I appreciate the interest! I have to transfer a bunch of files from my external hard drive to my laptop, but I've got a bunch.
A decent portion of it is more metal music, but I also recorded three tracks for my uncle's band, and they play more 80's-meets-modern rock style; it's really good stuff. In addition to the 3 new tracks I did, I remastered their album. If you'd like it, I can send that as well. ;D
All in all, I think I have... 20 tracks. If you'd like some, or all, I'll be in contact.

Thanks! ;D That's awesome, dude. I'm an amateur engineer myself! I mostly record myself drumming, but I also record mix (along with my brother) bass tracks, keyboard tracks, lead guitar, and vocals. We're running an SM-57, Sennheiser e835, and some other 'yardsale quality' (xD) mics through an Ionix Lexicon 4 input interface and then into Logic Express. What are your recommendations for recording drums? Right now my set up is the Shure mounted on the snare, the Sennheiser up above as the overhead, and the dumpy mic in a homemade sound tunnel (blanket xD) recording the bass drum. They all run through the Ionix and into logic where I compressed and EQ'd them and added some verb with the Platinum Reverb that comes with it. Any other tips or tricks you might recommend? Mic placement and compression/EQ's were set up by my drum teacher and I (and he's a professional studio/live drummer taught by Tommy Igoe) so I'm pretty sure those are optimal but in terms of engineering... any tricks up your sleeve for squeezing out a little better sound? Or general tips for Logic Express? I mean I'd imagine you're using sturdier stuff, but I figure it's worth asking. MSN is amnity12@hotmail.com. I'd love to see some of your stuff and chat sometime! ^^ |

I'm not familiar with your interface and such; I used primarily Pro Tools. But if you had a professional studio drummer set up your compression and EQ's, I'd imagine they'd be spot on. I know if you're going for a slappy, tight, metal kick drum sound, boost around 150 Hz, drop out all the mids, and boost it somewhere between 8 and 16kHz, as it adds that high-pitched attack to make it more metaled up.
Another thing to note if you ever end up mic'ing toms. If you like and want a deeper tom sound like in most hard rock/metal recordings, set it the way you want it and then lengthen the release. The longer the release, the boomier and sexier the toms sound, lol. I was shown that by my lab instructor, and he definitely knows what he's talking about. He's recorded with Queen and a bunch of other bands. He even had the original tracks to Bohemian Rhapsody, lol.
Yeah, totally, I'll add you on my MSN right now. ^_^ When you get the notice from kazzy_iv@hotmail.com, that's me. lol.
Hopefully we can chat and possibly exchange recordings sometime soon! ^_^ |
