Double-Miking Approaches For Drums

Looking into a technique that can deliver numerous advantages, especially when mixing in stereo.

If you’ve never experimented with double-miking an instrument, you’re in for a treat. It can provide a whole new palette of tonal colors, along with surprising ease of control. It’s especially useful when working with an unfamiliar console, one that has limited EQ capability, or when multiple operators are working together on the same control surface.

In ” It Takes Two: Double-Miking Approaches For Drums,” Chapter 6 of the PSW Expert Series on Drum Microphones, long-time pro audio veteran Ken DeLoria details employing the double-miking technique on several drums that comprise the kit. They’re techniques that he (and others) developed and deployed over decades of live mixing, applied to:

  • Kick drum
  • Snare drum
  • Toms
  • Overheads
  • And more!
