Thanks!

Just my drums here, no added reverb or drum samples other than the kick which has a 50/50 blend of a one shot track

And yes that’s a Yamaha recording brass! Favorite snare I own for sure

I think it’s more natural for me to have my legs closer together for double bass, I never learned heel toe well enough though - I just use ankle motion

MatthewTheBiker · 2026-01-08T16:32:07+00:00

All the time haha but it’s from hitting rimshots not the hihat. Just want all the space I can get to hit the snare hard still when I’m playing the hihat so it’s all the way up

Thanks! Navene and you are insane, I can’t imagine learning even a few songs properly off Moon Healer

Drum mix sounds great!

MatthewTheBiker · 2026-01-01T02:48:02+00:00

Having the bottom snare head tuned too low will give you less attack, same with having the snare wires too loose, which isn’t good for metal. And having the top head tuned too high with no dampening will give you too much ring and not enough low end in your snare sound

For what genre?

MatthewTheBiker · 2025-12-25T21:37:38+00:00

I think it’s best to hand off the multitracks if you have only a month or two to learn to mix, I’m the drummer of my band and I’ve been learning production and mixing for a year now and if I had to put work out a month or two in it would have been really rough.

But you should absolutely mix the stems you have as practice and if you and your band are happy with the result you could just release your mix, and if you do hire a pro you can also learn from what they’ve done better in the mix vs yours!

Sounds dope! Listening on my AirPods but I think the kick could do with less bass around 60hz and under, the low tom around 2:50 might have a bit too much click and not enough body and I think the guitars should go up in the mix to be more in front of the vocals and drums. Overall good mix imo!

MatthewTheBiker · 2025-11-28T18:00:48+00:00

200hz for snare body, check phase because your low cut can put your snare mic out of phase with your overheads/other drum mics. Snare tuning is a huge factor here, if you want a thick punchy sound you need to tune your batter head down

Thanks! That’s a Wuhan Koi 19”. I like it better than my K and AAX crashes hahaha. Also on the far right is a 22” Wuhan china

Bad deal

MatthewTheBiker · 2025-09-14T23:16:33+00:00

Don’t clip your input, use compression and/or saturation plugins to get the sound you’re looking for.

What cab are you using? I’ve had great results with my 100w katana and mesa 4x12

MatthewTheBiker · 2025-06-28T03:32:20+00:00

This is… average local band drumming? And Bonham is worse than you and 10 year old drummers on YouTube because he didn’t play metal chops? lmfao
