The best jazz cymbals can also depend on the size of your drum set. Cymbals used for jazz are often relatively large; the appropriate ride types are usually 20 to 22 inches (about 51 to 56 centimeters) in diameter, while crash cymbals about 17 inches (about 43 centimeters) in diameter ca...
Small-diaphragm condensers are known for capturing pure, transparent sound, and their small, low-mass diaphragms make them ultra-responsive to sound sources with sharp transients, such as acoustic guitar or cymbals. AKG Lyra, which delivers Ultra-HD audio, includes a built-in headphone jack and...
feedback. Shaped frequency response is the most desirable one since it features extreme high- and low-end frequency and boosts middle-range frequencies. However, if you want to record overhead cymbals and hi hats, you need a flat frequency response. It all depends on the type of instrument....
(two channels), one mic for the guitar amp, one for the bass amp, and at least one direct input for synthesizers (three channels). Then there's the drum kit, which will have its own miking considerations. With two overhead mics for cymbals, a mic on each tom, the snare and the ...
How to Choose a Drumkit to Buy: This instructable describes considerations to take when buying a drumkit. Whether new to drumming or just not sure how to begin narrowing options, in this instructable i hope to give advice on choosing a kit. It can be dif
Taper The length of the taper and diameter where it meets the tip determines how quickly the stick rebounds off drums and cymbals. ProMark models feature a longer taper for an active response, while ProMark Classic models have a shorter taper, driving the force of the stick into the drum....
It does me. What about the subtle clipping that takes place in guitar pluck or piano note in PCM digital recording. What about the sound of the cymbals in a digital recording or the stereo image that collapses. I'm sure you must hear these things, unless you've forgotten what tape sound...
Depending on genre, drum fills are one of the most effective and fun ways to bridge the gap between sections! Dubstep, electro and other ‘high intensity’ electronic genres are a great candidate. Typically this means a lot of toms plus kick, snare, and cymbals; you can vary it up by ...
We can’t forget about the drums, of course — you can be very flexible here, and perhaps even more than with any other instrument, thetypeof saturation can make a huge difference. Avoiding anything too fuzzy or hissy, as this will bring out the splash of the cymbals, hi hats and snar...
Another important band in acoustic guitars is around 8 kHz and up. This area has a lot of sizzle that can compete with cymbals, so it wouldn’t be a bad idea to alsolow-pass filter the high-endto create space for all this frequency content. Remember, guitars are midrange instruments!
