I HAVE NO AFFILIATION WITH ANY MANUFACTURER/RETAILER/ETC.. I bought the gear in this video and made the video for my own entertainment and education.. I share it because I know it will be interesting for other nerds like myself.
INFO:
I put my foot through my kick drum head and needed a new one.. figured it'd be fun to record before and after samples... and play around with a couple microphones (and pillow/no pillow in the kick drum). It WAS fun.

Did you know... if you tell sweetwater what candy you don't like, they'll stop sending you that kind.
I now live a life without any cinnamon candies, and it's great.
Are you telling me I might be able to get only tootsie rolls? This whole CZcams channel cannibalizing my entire life may just be starting to pay off. Thanks for the heads up!
@@SHUTUPANDRECORDYeah, someone somewhere wrote about it and I mentioned it to my sales guy and now life is 100% better and the sun even comes out more often.
Cool to quickly peer over your shoulder for different ideas of what can work. I've always used a pillow for the kick, I might try removing it and see how that sits in a mix. Love the format, thanks for making time for us
wow.. thanks a lot! I appreciate you taking time to watch and comment!
lately, I've been having fun trying to get the main tone of the kick from a condenser mic low out in front of the kick about 4 feet... and fill in the thump/and punch with an inside mic.
It sounds cool both with and without a pillow but I find the pillow dries out the ring in a way that helps in a busier, more dense arrangement.
I'm hoping to put a video together with an example of kick mic pairs soon!
thanks again!
