Recording kick drum with unperforated resonant head
      23/03/12 11:31 PM
I'm going to be recording a band rehearsal with a drummer who's kick drum has an unperforated resonant head. I've read an SOS feature (June '08) which was very helpful, but can anyone give me some miking advice from experience?

I have a Sennhieser e602 mkII and Shure PG52. I'm thinking miking both drum heads with the PG52 pointing towards the beater (drummer side) and the e602 at the front and slightly off centre.
Does this sound ok?

I know there will be a lot of spill but I'm going to try and reduce this the best I can.

Thanks
