Description : Here is a great trick for making your drums sound really big and it's simple to do. It's called Parallel drum compression. We will be using some drum sounds we recorded with Apogee's Quartet recording into Auria on an iPad. using only four mic's AKG D112 mounted inside the Kick, Shure SM57 on the Snare, a single Neumann U67 as a mono overhead, and another U67 in front of the kit as a room Mic. The tracks were then imported into Logic to Mix For this tutorial we only used the plug ins in Logic. Here are the our drum tracks. Select all four Change the "Stereo Out" to "Bus 1" you can actually use any bus you like. You will see over to the right that a new Aux channel was created labeled "Aux 1 I'm going to change the name to "Drums" name it whatever you like Now select all of the drum channels again Under "Sends" Choose any other Bus except the one you just used which is our case is labeled drums. You will see that another Aux channel was created. You can now name this Aux channel. We are calling this channel Comp. Drums for Compression Drums. Make sure that it's a stereo track and not mono. Now on the first insert choose compressor. Settings are subjective to taste. I want a pretty heavy compression on the channel So I will start with these setting and adjust if needed. Now as you see when I un mute the channel nothing happened. That is because I have to send how much of each drum track I want to the Compression Aux. To send them all at once simply select all of them again ...
