Recording Drums at Home

 Here are some videos I have found about recording drums on a budget at home.

This video has pros and cons.  The pros are it is short and sweet.  The man in the video talks very clearly, and explains what he is saying clearly and concisely.  He uses phrases that everyone, especially musicians, will understand.  However, one thing I do not like about this video is that it is called "Basic Drum Recording" but only actually talks about the positioning on microphones.  For a video about drum recording, it should also include general steps about how to get microphone signal from your microphones into your computer.

This is a great video for home recording.  He takes you through everything, from his drum setup, to his interface and microphone setup. This video does what the last one didn't do.  The only issues I have with it are that it is a little dark.  The lighting makes it a bit hard to watch because it is dark, but thats not a huge issue.  The other con is he could have edited out some the "ums" and dead space, because an 18 minute long video can be daunting to some.  That being said, I thought it was a great and informational video.

This video is a very good description of what you will need to record drums, but doesn't actually show you how everything links together.  I feel like a combination of all three videos I have posted here will tell you everything you need to know about recording drums.
