My drummer is comfortable playing drums at 180bpm so I was wondering if I could play bass at that speed.
If so, what effects would be recommended to make it that little more punchy with more bass?

dustin asked:

Where can I find some ideal drum loops/software for recording?
Klondike Bar asked:
I am a guitarist and I do not own a drum set, but I do have a keyboard with drum kit presets and I also have Fruity Loops 8 so I can easily make my own loops, but they don’t sound too real. I want some rock/pop/punk/blues drum loops that sound really nice and are in a variety of rhythms. Basically I want to make it sound like I have a drummer. Haha.

What kind of drum set should we get our son?
MOMSTER asked:
Our youngest son is going to be graduating from high school in May, and we want to get him a drum set for his grad. gift. He was on the drumline all four yrs. in high school. He’s a good drummer, but has never had a set of his own. He hopes to continue to play, maybe in a band someday, too. Would it be better to get him a regular drum set or an electronic set? Our budget is about $2,000 or so.

What are some quality drum microphones for studio drumming?
Bddrumma asked:
Hey everyone. I am new to the recording world, and I finall have a decent pay check and some money. Instead of saving for a car, I decided to save for a recording studio instead. I am a drummer first and foremost, and have been for about 12 years now. Therefore I wish to purchase drum mics first (after the board and software of course). Anyone out there able to link me a site, or tell me of some decent mics. They don’t have to be cheap, I am looking for quality. Thanks for the help!
