Recording a Drum Set with 4 Microphones

If you’re finding yourself with a limited budget resulting in limited gear, you’re certainly not alone. The good news is technology has come a long way from the days of being limited to any sort of multi-track recording outside a 4-track recorder. Now, the most cost effective of digital audio workstations, paired with the power of today’s computers, provide us all with nearly unlimited options for recording multiple tracks, multiple takes, and multiple versions. However, even with these advantages, we still need a decent instrument and decent microphones to lay a strong foundation for a finished record. Thankfully, almost all live instruments can be recorded with just one or two microphones.
