the ARP was an OMNI-2

I had no idea we had such gear nerds in the house, or I would have certainly been more detailed. I'll know better next time.

Here's the drum setup. The room was intentionally left large, not baffled off, and the result was just a massive drum sound. The kick was mic'ed up using a reverse NS-10 speaker, and a pair of AKG C12s caught the overheads. We put a little bullet harmonica mic underneath the snare, which we fed into a princeton reverb guitar amp in a separate closet, which was then mic'ed with a sure 57. It's a little proccess, ear-candy sort of overdriven snare sound that mixes in beautifully underneath the direct top-snare mic'ing.
