Heyo! So for recording drums I used the recorderman technique with an SM57 on the snare, a pari Audix 15;s for overheads, and a Beta 52 on the kick. This setup works great for my moderately small recording space but I am now faced with a horrible and pressing dilemma... I have two extra mics. They are both stereo condensor mics and I'd like to experiment with them on drums. I've already tried to use them on toms but they don't sound good... any ideas?

That sounds a lot better. I think what HoboSage said sounded like a good last line. So it would go: Everything you've been taught to pursue Has been numbing you to the life you knew When God is a lie And life is a fluke The dogma you swallowed Now makes you puke

Where is the vst bridge? And what is it?

Well, i have a four track, but it counts a stereo track is two seperate tracks, so in reality it's more like a two-track. I have to mix in every other track. However, I can put the seperate tracks on my computer, but I don't have a program to edit them. I used to have Acid, but I lost it and I don't want to buy another because I think I might find it. Are there any free programs I could use?

I love bridges that create a "moment" where all the music just come at this climax that you couldn't have gotten without all the buildup. Where, afterwards, you think "that was badass" and want to listen to it again, but you realize that it's only because of the rest of the song before it that it has the impact it does.

I'm a beginner to recording and mixing, and I know little about them. But one thing I've found in my demos is that my rhythm guitars always get drowned out. I usually record music with a piano, drum, and bass track. I then usually record two rhythm guitar tracks and pan them left and right. I then record a lead guitar track and leave it in the center. However, this is where I run into a problem. I record lead last, and afterwards, it seems so much louder and it stands out more than everything else that the rest of the music seems too quiet. Also, after piling on so many tracks, my rhythm guitar tracks are barley noticeable and quiet, no matter how loud they are. Can anyone give me any advice on how to prevent this? I can post a link of a song as an example if needed.

I would do that, but I can't really add more to the chorus. :/

I'm not sure if this is the right section, and if it's not, please tell me. The other day I was sitting in church, and someone said something like that with a certain rhythm to the words that stuck in my head and found a melody. The idea was catchy, so I made it a chorus. However, what do you think a song with this chorus would be about? "Everything that you've been taught to pursue, has been numbing you from the life I knew, where God is a lie, and life is a fluke"
