[QUOTE="Lee Brenkman, post: 64643, member: 154"] Re: Jazz Sound ...let's talk I don't think anyone has ever accused me of being a purist but I have mixed the house sound and recorded many live jazz shows that included drum sets with no hole in the kick drum AND no kick drum mic and I can assure you that the kick drum was audible at the appropriate level both in the audience AND the recording. Usually two or three mics on the drums, mono or stereo overhead and a mic over on the floor tom side, same distance from the center of the snare drum as the overhead(s). Full disclosure, the drums are well tuned and well played, the venues were ones that had less than 500 seats and the stage volume was determined by the drummer's dynamics. No walls of Marshall amps and SVTs here ;-). [/QUOTE]
