Re: Preamp for drum recording?
I've been googling, but I can't get a good answer. What is AES? I see that it is a digital our, which I don't think I'll need if I get a dedicated converter, right?

Preamp for drum recording?
Yes AES is a digital format.
One example of using AES is on a HD I/o ....8x8x8 I have 8 analog in's I have another 8 AES, in's I have 8 ADAT in's on the Enclosure. You don't have to use anything you don't want to, if you want all analog, make sure you get enough Analog Input cards to support all your analog in's. I didn't want to buy another analog card for my interface- I use what I have....and it works. No biggie, but it has to be Analog then just make sure the Lynx has enough of them (analog inputs)

Preamp for drum recording?
Which model? Aurora 16 I guess
I wonder if it's 16 analog AND 16 AES... Or 16 analog OR 16 AES.... Wow I just checked Sweetwater and it is AND... 32 I/O So you could stack 4 of those XL48's together and have a 32 channel recoding setup....

Re: Preamp for drum recording?
Wow. So I can have 16 analog INs to the aurora 16, then also connect two 8-channel preamps to the AES inputs on the Aurora?
So, in that case, the aurora would do A-to-D conversion for the 16 analogs, and then just "pass through" the 16 digital signals via he AES connectors? |

Re: Preamp for drum recording?
That's what the Sweetwater website said, simultaneous 16 Ana and 16 aes
Check manual for confirmation

Re: Preamp for drum recording?
Yeah sounds good, but I thought you were in Nashville? I was expecting C&W - for real

Re the drum sounds, some is due to how killer the Mothertone drums are(aka Sleishman). They are made in Australia and all the shells are floating(not a single screw or bolt touches the shells). Some is also due to Robert Wright being an amazing mixer(Bleed was mixed by Michael Wagener, but Robert mixed the rest). IIRC, most of the songs used a Ludwig Black Beauty snare. Toms were 10, 12 and 14" with a 20" kick. Mics were Audix D6 and custom subkick(bass drum), Beta56(top) and EV nd408(bottom)(snare), AT3031(hat), Miktek PM10(racks), Miktek PM11(floor) and Miktek C1's(overheads). Preamps were Midas XL48(shell mics) and Focusrite ISA428(hat, ride and overheads). Drums actually were tracked in a fairly small room.
