We also have the multitracks for you to download, so you can follow along and mix them yourself! EQ is one of the most powerful things you can do to make a drum kit jump out of the mix. Today, we will using a very simple drum recording: there are two kick drum mics, two snare mics, a hi-hat, rack, floor tom mic, overheads, and a stereo room. I will be showing you how to get really quick, simple results from nearly any type of drum recording. First, we will be working on the inside of the kick drum. This one is a little bit clicky as it is picking up some of that snappiness of the beater hitting the head. Let’s apply a stock EQ plugin to get us started. Most of you know the principle of finding ugly areas and getting rid of them. To do that I am going to make the Q narrow and give it a boost, and once I find that ugly area, I will widen the Q. With that wide Q, I am going to do the opposite and cut that, which gets rid of some of that unwanted excessive bleed that you hear, as well as getting rid of that ugly mid range. Now, I am going to cut and widen it a bit more, and this cut exaggerates the clickiness more and that low thump below. Even on a kick drum, high-passing is not a bad thing, so I am going to make the slope a little bit more aggressive here. With EQ, we often do compression, reverbs, delays, and more, but many of you have asked me to keep it simple!
