In this video, we are going to do a deep dive into mid/side drum room miking. We'll start with the basics of "what is mid/side recording" and why you want to use room mics for your drums.

We'll also discuss how select microphones for this setup, how to position them, and what what you have to do in post-production in your DAW.

Finally, we'll go through a series of sound samples so you can hear how different mixing of the microphones impacts the sound.

Applying this technique will allow you to add some "glue" to your drum sound. It will take drums that have been "cut up" and make them sound natural again.
