Drum triggering

A summary of the equipment and techniques used to trigger acoustic and electronic drums.

Processing dynamics

"If the RNC1773 were a car, it would take corners at 120mph, get 50 miles per gallon, and if you slammed into a wall, it would just bounce off harmlessly." (Craig Anderton/EQ)

Miking

Miking drums is live and in the studio is a very delicate task. Beside the sonic attributes of the mics there's a number of other aspects to be considered, such as their sensitivity to crosstalk, ease of setup or ruggedness. B-Band from Finland have created a totally unique drum miking system, which is based on a completely different approach to conventional mics.
