Awesome, thanks! Jordan, the drummer, is a beast behind the kit! The drum sizes of his kit are actually pretty small. He uses an 18" kick! We used kit with bigger drums for the dry stuff. It was a really beat up kit they had at Dreamland. It was funny because the iso booth was literally just big eno...

Re: Techniques & ideas for 60s/70s style recordings????
My question is really, what other mics out there that would suit what we're trying to get into, or which were well used in 60's/70's garage, rock & soul music? Also....are there any cool ideas on mic placements (esp for guitars) & signal flow etc? You've already got some nice mics. I am a fool for ...

Work fast. Use good gear. Band plays live in a good room together with minimal overdubs. Work fast. Did I mention work fast? Make decisions quickly and stick to them.

If going for mono drums, I like a single ribbon above the kit, just up high enough to pick up an even balance of the whole kit. The front of the mic would be aiming down at the kit. I do not put any part of the kit in the nulls. This technique really benefits from the addition of a close mic on kick...
