BTM 024: The Art of Mixing Drums (Part 1)

Drum mixing is a complex topic which requires stage work, mix work, and working with the drummer.  Add on to that subjects like shielding and volume issues and the idea of mixing drums quickly becomes a heavy topic.  Chris and Brian cover all of these subjects, including reverb, gating, and compression, in this two-part series.  Part 1 focuses on much of the stage work - the work required before even thinking about stepping behind the mixer.
