Re: For drums, how would I best utilize this gear....



Alright, if you had lets say 150, what would you get for condensers?

If I wanted to record a standard set using only:
1 SM57
1 SM58
1 PVM22 (Peavey)

Where would my best rigging spots be? I have to do some drums here away
from home and I really dont have any money for some nice condensers...
The room I'm in is a spacious living room, thin walls and not much in
the way to asorb sound, but not alot of bouncyness in the room either.
I know without some condensers I'm not going to get anything fantastic
but does anyone have any suggestions (beside buying condensers)?

Hell, you could trade that SM58 for a pair of the Behringer measurement
condenser mikes and still have some money left over. That's what I'd
do in your situation. Or I'd build a couple of the omni mikes using the
Panasonic capsules as described in that Tape Op article last year...
