Summary:  Recording great drum sounds is one of the most challenging tasks facing any drummer, audio engineer, or music producer. Capturing the variety, nuance, and excitement of the drum kit and other percussion instruments is part art, part science, and part creative experimentation--and there's a lot more to it than simply setting up a mic and hitting the Record button. In this comprehensive book, recording engineer/producer/mixer Mike Major leads you through the sometimes complex and often misunderstood art of recording drums. Along the way, you'll cover all the ins and outs, including establishing the drums' role in the song, preparing the drum kit (and the room) for recording, choosing microphones and getting sounds, and tracking, overdubbing, editing, and choosing the final take. After many years of playing drums in bands, Mike Major started doing live sound and working in recording studios. He was employed for 16 years by South Coast Audio, a regional sound reinforcement company in El Paso, Texas, where he was a system tech and front-of-house technician. He also managed Rosewood Studio from 1987-2005, where he recorded hundreds of artists, including At The Drive-In, Sparta, Holly Dunn, and many more. He currently lives in St. Petersburg, Florida.
