Creating a good kick drum sound (punchy)
I am in the process of recording drums for my up and coming demo that I am making and need some advice from the experts on getting that "punchy" kick drum sound. I'm miking my drum with an external preamp running a light pipe connection to protools. How do I create the punchy kick drum sound after recording the drums. Also, on what level should I record the kick; do I peak the signal and then adjust? Do I barely peak the signal? or DO I get the level at below the peak indicator? What effects do I use also to accomplish this? Thanks for everyone's time!
