I need an old wood snare or tom drum in the sizes of 11, 12 or 13". old, slightly beat up whatever just as long as it has both rims any color no matter. Not looking for anything new or highend. matter of fact the cheaper the better. prefer local & south subs but will pay reasonable shipping. please ...

Does size matter?? lol... No but seriously folks, I'm having trouble finding an 8" all I keep finding 10 and 12". If that's the case I have a 15" already so if it won't affect the sound negatively. just finding an 18" Tom to enclose it.

So whats the down side of building the cable already attached? and you solder the the connections right? Also would insulating it with like Aralex make any sound difference/improvement?

You know I have a 15" eminece and was thinking of that but wouldn't know how to wire it correctly for one and 2 wouldn't I need to build a case or enclosure for it? which seems to be a serious task in itself.

I'm thinking of getting a sub kick mic (yamaha) but I was just wondering if it is neccessary or would it be equivilent if I used like a D6 or beta 52 a and just hyped the low lows in addition to my D112? would it give me the same or close affect?
What y'all think?

Just remember what ever you do in recording you must be able to duplicate live. That's always my biggest concern. If you hear Maynard, Chino, Chester tho they're not hardcare their live screams are just as powerful as their recorded ones. Our singer is trying to learn to do it. but everyone can't. I...

Wow this is that cheap now?? I guess I better get rid of mine while I can get something for it.

Next time I'd love to know about the meetup. I just started checking this forum semi frequently and would love to hangout and talk shop and learn from the vets in the game.

57 top c3000b bottom. thinking about exp a bit with my e609 bottom and 3000b on top picking up a few new ones beta 98s' or e904 (undecided), e602 but those are going to be mostly for toms and kick.

What do you hear that should be corrected? Or what don't you hear that you realize later should be corrected? I'd recommend a good set of monitors that you like, that translate well for you, and that you feel you can really get into and get used to. Chris Garges Charlotte, NC I use Mackie 824's the...

yeah... you've got enough stuff to make a good record. when you're getting the best you can out of what you have, the places where you want to upgrade will be more apparent. that said, if it was my rig, I'd sell the Waves bundle, add that to your $2000, get a UAD card and a nice mic pre or two. may...

That is the question.... anything constructive about the mix? What do you hear that should be corrected?

I know this question is vague but I'm not sure of what information I need to provide other than I use Sonar PE5, DA7, 1884(soon to be fireface 800), Presonus, Aphex, Art mic pres, Alesis Masterlink, Waves Diamond are all my main pieces. But if you had to add one piece of gear to enhance your mixes b...

Thanks man, that was very insightful and helped alot.
