In fact, the subject almost creates a debate: whereas some say that ribbon mics inhibit hi frequencies, Michael feels that it's the other way around; condenser mics exaggerate hi frequencies, and they sound less natural and are more difficult to use correctly...
This second part also gives us an opportunity to: go into further detail about some of his choices (why use a stereo mic for overhead?), to see how he sets up drums in a room to get the best possible sound, and especially to hear the result after recording and mixing. Does he get a huge sound? Yes, that's the right word ... In fact, we put the final drum mix into 24-bit 48 kHz, so you can judge for yourself. You can download it here ...
