A Conversation on Drum Loudness

101 Audio Mixing, Relationships

Description

From drummer to engineer and engineer to drummer, how loud drums are tends to be a sore subject. Rhett Harken and Phil Bledsoe have a conversation on how loud drums should be, and how to make compromises while still honoring and respecting one another in the process.

Key Points:
  • Always give drummers and engineers the benefit of the doubt when approaching loudness, they may be aware of the issue before you bring it up!
  • Making compromises with one another not only creates a better overall sound, but also creates a healthier team dynamic.
  • Sometimes drum shields are not always the answer, talk with your musicians and your leadership team to determine what is best for your room!
