[QUOTE="Eric Cagle, post: 64660, member: 277"] Re: Jazz Sound ...let's talk In this situation with drum mikes "Less is more." I did a show with The Coasters a couple of years ago and used a D112 on Kik and an SM57 as an overhead (I was a last minute hired gun and that is what the venue had) centered 5-6 feet above the kit. Unbelievable! I got comments all night on what a great mix it was including from the musicians in the other bands. There is NO substitute for tuning and playing. If you think about it, capturing the kit with a single mic in the right position is: a) balanced and b) in phase. I rolled off everything but the extreme lows on the kik mic and only used it to add a touch of low end to fill it out and make it bump on the more danceable tunes. [/QUOTE]
