Default Tips on recording live drums on the cheap? - 02-12-2009, 07:30 PM

Hey guys, my band are going to be playing live soon and I want to be able to record us for a live EP sort of thing, being the most technically minded member I have been assigned recording duty.

Recording guitars and such is easy with the right mic. but Drums are much harder to capture, has anybody got any tips?

Someone told me that putting the microphone inside a pillow or cushion helps dampen some of the crushing volume but I havnt tried it yet.

Thanks


I'm an experienced pedal tech specialising in overdrive and distortion pedals as well as SS amps. Any questions guys feel free to send them my way and I'll help the best I can!
