Select the right microphones<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>If you have the flexibility in your studio or home setup, it&#8217;s important to understand that different microphones will have features that complement certain instruments and styles of music. &#8220;Today, we&#8217;re recording two vocalists, and I decided to use the Manley Reference Gold microphone, which is a tube condenser,&#8221; Smythe says. &#8220;The reason why I wanted to use a tube condenser is because we&#8217;re going for vintage soul, and tube condensers give you that body and that warmth that you can only get from <a href=\"https:\/\/splice.com\/blog\/vacuum-tubes-in-music\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">the tubes inside of the microphone.<\/a>&#8220;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>&#8220;We&#8217;re also recording a drummer. For the kick drum, we&#8217;re going to use the Electro-Voice RE20, because it&#8217;s a dynamic microphone. The reason why we use a dynamic microphone on a kick drum is because it can handle the loud transients better than a condenser could.&#8221;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>&#8220;For our overheads, we&#8217;re using a stereo pair of Neumann U87s, which are legendary for capturing detail\u2014we want as much detail as we can capture from the cymbals and the toms.&#8221;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>When recording live bands and individual instruments, also try thinking about how <a href=\"https:\/\/splice.com\/blog\/types-of-microphones\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">the type of mic you&#8217;re using,<\/a> <a href=\"https:\/\/splice.com\/blog\/microphone-polar-patterns\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">its polar patterns,<\/a> and its other unique features can align with your creative goals. Go to 0:15 in the video to hear more on this tip, and also check out <a href=\"https:\/\/splice.com\/blog\/best-vocal-microphones\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">our in-depth guide on vocal microphones<\/a> for even more options and insights.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">2. Carefully consider mic placement<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Choosing the right microphones for the job is only half the battle\u2014where and how you place your mics is also crucial in bringing out the full potential of a band&#8217;s performance. &#8220;When miking vocalists, we like to have them stand a little bit back from the microphones to minimize proximity effect and <a rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" href=\"https:\/\/splice.com\/blog\/create-vintage-vocals\/\" target=\"_blank\">get that vintage soul sound,<\/a>&#8221; Smythe explains. &#8220;We also throw on a pop filter to get rid of plosives.&#8221;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>&#8220;When miking the drums, we went with a minimal approach, only using three microphones. The two U87s have to be the same distance from the snare to get a good stereo image, and the RE20, acting as the only kick drum mic, should be a good distance from the head of the kick drum and be outside of it to get a good balance between punch and boom.&#8221;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>When it comes to mic placement, note that there&#8217;s no objective right or wrong for every single scenario. However, different placements will certainly play a key role in shaping the tone of your sound, so it&#8217;s worth experimenting rigorously to get a feel for where you want to position your mics. Go to 1:30 to hear more on this tip and watch Smythe position some mics live on an array of instruments.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">3. Practice proper gain staging<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>When using outboard gear such as pre-amps, <a rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" href=\"https:\/\/splice.com\/blog\/what-is-compression\/\" target=\"_blank\">compressors,<\/a> and EQs, it can be easy for your levels to get out of hand. &#8220;What I suggest doing is setting the level on your pre-amp and making sure that it doesn&#8217;t change at all when you take your compressor in and out of bypass,&#8221; Smythe says. &#8220;That way, all you hear is the <em>effect<\/em> of your pre-amp and the <em>effect<\/em> of your compressor.&#8221;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>If you don&#8217;t have access to physical outboard gear, you can still put this concept into action with high-quality software emulations like the ones found in <a href=\"https:\/\/splice.com\/plugins\/39137033-fx-collection-4-vst-au-by-arturia\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Arturia&#8217;s FX Collection.<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">4. Treat your room properly<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Proper acoustic treatment for your room is another factor that will come alongside mic placement and positioning to help shape your sound. &#8220;There are two main types of acoustic treatment,&#8221; Smythe says. &#8220;There&#8217;s absorption and there&#8217;s diffusion. Absorption kills the reflections in your room, while diffusion disperses the reflections to create a smooth tail.&#8221;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Go to 2:49 in the video to hear Smythe discuss the acoustics of the space he&#8217;s recording in, and check out <a href=\"https:\/\/splice.com\/blog\/acoustic-treatment-home-studio-budget\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">our DIY guide on acoustic treatment<\/a> to explore how you can optimize your room on a budget.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">5. Promote healthy band chemistry<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Whether you&#8217;re an engineer, a member of the band, or both, healthy band chemistry will lead to better energy and a more open exchange of creative ideas. &#8220;Part of the reason why Soul Surplus works so well together is that we&#8217;re actually friends outside of what we do for work,&#8221; Smythe tells us. &#8220;We&#8217;re always sharing what we&#8217;re inspired by and what we&#8217;re listening to, and it translates well sonically when it&#8217;s time to come together as a band.&#8221;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<hr class=\"wp-block-separator has-alpha-channel-opacity\"\/>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Production tips for recording live bands: Conclusion<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>We hope the above tips inspire new ideas and approaches for the next time you find yourself recording live bands.
