I never worried about it. Point em where you want em. I uses different mics on top and bottom anyway.Recycled_Brains wrote: ↑Mon May 20, 2024 8:26 amHow important is the mics being mirrored to each other? I always wonder if I'm only trying to do that because I like visual symmetry.

Re: United Pugin $5 sale
Cool. Got the Royale with Cheese, the Morphverb, and the Quick Attorney General. I had the other 2 but got the QAG myself today - might come in handy some day - at least something to try if the usual suspects don't work. Any Idea of how long the sale is going? email I got says the sale goes through...

United Pugin $5 sale
Like the title says -- unitedplugins.com/ a few on sale for their 5th anniversary. If you skip over everything else, get the "Royal Compressor". I've had this one awhile and I like it. Also Morphverb is really cool too and again only $5 (or €5) $5 for a plugin is crazy. AND they provide free updates.

Re: DIY drum sample pack
I mean you could, but there is a plethora of material out there already. And sure, you could try to make something unique that nobody else has but will that really matter? A long time ago (in a galaxy not so far away) I made my own samples for Drumagog and would use them occasionally (when I still h...

Re: Snares - what’s everyone using nowadays?
My buddy left a Supraphonic at my place on indefinite loan. I put a new head on it and it just sounds weird. Not sure if there's a warped hoop or something, but it's very underwhelming. Haven't had the time or motivation to investigate further. it's not often, but you can definitely get a bad drum ...

Re: Snares - what’s everyone using nowadays?
sometimes a Remo ambassador sounds "right" to me too. I have snares with Evans and Aquarian heads too, but man, the Ambassador is just sometimes the one.

Re: New Pro Tools, who dis? "FREEZE"
other people would probably hate my sessions. I do a lot of drum tracking, so I got used to having the drums to the right - only the AUX busses and master fader are further right (master is furthest). Then my guide tracks would be to the left and click furthest left. I got used to that, so then I us...

Re: Snares - what’s everyone using nowadays?
a Worldmax "Jade Tiger" 5x14, The Supraphonic has definitely been on my list but I have never pulled the trigger. Also I have wanted a hammered bronze ever since seeing Bill Stewart perform. His whole set sound is unbelievable. I love the looks of that world max Jade Tiger. Is that aluminum or stee...

Re: Snares - what’s everyone using nowadays?
AIt records a bit thinner than it sounds in real life, which is a bit of a head scratcher. Mics, placement, heads, tuning, the room - so many factors. This is actually why I have a lot of snares. Once I get them in a sweet spot I tend to not want to change them. Then when I want that certain sound ...

Re: Snares - what’s everyone using nowadays?
Fun! Time for drummers to nerd out. I have a bunch of snares (but I won't say collector - they get used). Over 20 for sure. For gigs it depends on the venue. I have a Ludwig Supraphonic LM400 (the 5x14) that has S-hoops on top and bottom (because I rescued this snare from years of abuse) and Puresou...

Re: dynamic mics and speaker coils?
Ribbon mics have magnets. Ribbon mics have been around for a long time (longer than me). Speakers have magnets. Also been around a long time. I think as long as your not trying to mic the back of an open cabinet and getting really really close (and if so, why?) I think it's probably safe. I've certa...

there's a color intensity slider that helps (although not sure how much if you are in dark mode lol)

just use colors that don't hurt your eyes and it's all good - you will be staring at them all day!
