My band recently spent a weekend recording drums at a really great local studio. We got back home and listened to them on a bunch of different playback systems and started to notice a few things we were not all together happy with. We contemplated going back to the studio and paying to have it re-tracked, but ultimately we decided against it.
Still curious, we recently set up the drums in our little project studio, and tracked the drums ourselves. We spent a lot of time on mic placement and were able to get some sounds we liked.
Now here's the catch: After A/Bing the studio recorded drums with the self-recorded drums, we're not real sure which we like better!
So here's my point (finally): I was wondering if I posted links to those two sets of tracks, would you guys be interested in critiquing them? I'm not looking to get them mixed a la IMP, just if you were to get these tracks as mix AE's, which would you prefer?
