  Great video. Funny enough, I've always preferred Evans on everything BUT the snare. There, nothing beats the CS reverse dot for me.

  The CS Reverse Dot is a good one! I love how open it sounds, and it's very controllable with moongels.

  Hey there. I’m snare head window shopping. I kinda like the sound of that to your left. Is that a crash ride? Any info would be great. I’m narrowing down to the HD btw.

  Hey! On my left (near the hihats) it's an 18" Zildjian A Medium Thin Crash. If you mean the ride that I'm using on the left of the video, it's actually an older unmarked 22" Zildjian ride that feels about like a medium weight ride.

  Damn the budget mics make them sound like totally different drums, no comparison.

• 
  @alessandro_inno6 ай бұрын

  There is a diifference. But i think is not worth the extra money. The mix could have been the same eq for both so if the mics have different frequency range you just eq a little different, different compression . In my opinion. The difference is not as insane as to buy the pro mics unless you have the money to buy them, like extra money or you have a proper studio thst makes you money.

  I learned EVERYTHING I needed in this video. I’ve recorded multiple albums in studios with my old $350 5 piece shure kit. One studio made me use theirs insisted they knew what they were doing. The track recorded with 12 microphones that were all $500-2500 in price was the worst sounding tack I’ve ever played on. The 5 mics I paid $350 for in a kit along with the 2 Condenser mics I got on sale for $80 each(usually $125). … just… come on. It’s clear as day. Cheap equipment with talent behind it being made and especially being worked on in the studio is such a better experience than spending the cost of your entire kit on mics that youre terrified will fall or get hit and if your engineer doesn’t know how to MAKE TRACKS SPICnSPAN CLEAN???? You should get rid of whoever is finalizing the songs instead of getting mics that from what I’ve noticed will last 50% the lifetime of the VERY BOTTOM COST mic bundle at your local guitar center. Trust me. I hit heads for a living.

  It’s really hard to get into the Music business. The pay is very lousy. Most time you work for free everybody’s broke on average that guy sold his studio because he wasn’t making any money. That’s the bottom line. I wish you much great luck in a career with music.

  Great content and evaluation, Alex. I appreciate the logical approach to this comparison. New to audio equipment. And now that I'm playing more, I've started buying mics. I'll say it's hard to spend 50% more when you're only getting [subjectively] 10% better sound quality. Of course if I'm being paid to record, I'd think differently.

• 
  @steverok6711 ай бұрын

  Great video. Regarding the angled spaced pair, if you want the sound to be more balanced and centered, at what point is it easier (and just as good) to just use a single mono overhead ? The stereo stuff is cool, but I like to use a minimal mic set-up whenever possible. Also, with limited mic's, stands, cables, inputs, etc., I may rather use that slot for a room mic or a second kick mic.

  I have the Genera Dry, and you can get a bit of ring if you hit off center near the edge of the snare drum. I feel like the HD Dry deadens the snare drum too much for my taste. These are excellent choices for recording.

  I play in a low level, local cover band where we play places that are not normally music venues. We travel with our own bare bones PA. I own a set of the CADs (the Stage 4 set-one kick, one snare, two toms), and for this purpose, these are great mics for the value. I needed a set of mics mainly for monitoring, but if we play something of a larger spot, we'll give them a slight presence in the mains (and they sound fairly good in both scenarios). I also needed something that could handle being setup and torn down repeatedly, where it wouldn't be a financial wash if they get worn down quickly as a result. These mics fit that bill perfectly. That said, i would likely not use them for recording or at a serious/semi serious live music venue.

  My opinion no instrument is as easy capture or harder to sound good to tape ( totally forget digital drum recording ) . Tape provides compression, drums need tape compression not just outboard compression. Thus 2 mic drum technique is optimal , 1 overhead , 1 kick.Forget Glyn John's all that crap, 1 overhead, 1 kick and ANY mic will work . ANY . The real task is getting the room sound and the drummer to tape.but pricy mics ? Total BS

  I have 4 421s for toms. Oddly enough in tests on KZread of the mics flat, i prefer the 57, in another test I preferred the new clip on sennhieser tom mics to the 421. But, in my own recording and mixing, thats not at all what Ive found. 421s usually make toms sound like cannons. But i never use them without compression and eq. So i kind of need a full mix, mixed down, comparison.

  AKG c214s are budget c414s and sound like crap. Don't use them. A better alternative would be the Warm Audio WA-47Jr, which are $100 less each.

  @AlexmDrums Жыл бұрын

  They're just cardioid-only versions of the 414's, I haven't had a single issue with them in terms of sound or build quality in comparison to 414's. Don't get me wrong, I would love a par of 414's though haha! The WA47jr I've been really wanting to try on kick though, I hear it's phenomenal.
