What do YOU use to record drums? 📽 EXPAND YOUR INTERFACE with ADAT: ruclips.net/video/AV-yr4zmx50/видео.html 📽 EVO 16 GAIN CHANGER: ruclips.net/video/H5o39NrkXfY/видео.html
Quick word of caution on the Evo range... I can't speak for the evo16, but the encoder on my evo8 broke after a year's normal use. I found the part from Alpine, £4 or so, but the PCB couldn't withstand soldering (not by me- a professional)- attempting to fix it made it irrepaireble. I have seen many users having issues with the 16 in audient user groups and forums. Audient are quick and helpful in responding, but I don't see these issues arising in the Audient ID range. I've been using the same Audient iD14 mk1 for 8 years and it's rock solid - and it saw much worse abuse than the evo8 ever did. I think there's good reason Audient have distanced their brand from the Evo range, even though I have no problem with the design, I've just never had issues with interfaces other than this one.
Just discovered your channel, and I am totally blown away by the quality of your content. I'm planning on getting the EVO 16 with the Beatkit Pro 7, but was never able to find any videos with both being used. Thank you for the great video, I'll be on the lookout for more!
I liked the Lewitts a taste more but B was not bad. It really boiled down to your playing and it was spot on. I really appreciated your drumming skills. The presentation had a jazz rock fusion vibe with the placement of snare hits. It was groovy and I thoroughly enjoyed it.
Thank you for this video. Just getting started with recording drums. I saw an interview about Lewitt's approach to microphones and was impressed. I'm considering the Lewitt mics vs. the SE Electronic mics. Are they on par with each other? Did you pick Lewitt because of the on-mic features for the overheads and the dual kick mic or some other reason that gave it an edge over your review of SE from 3 years ago? (I'm getting the evo 16 soon.)
This kit seems ok but for me it would be great with a second snare mic and a hi-hat mic ( why not the same model as the over-head mic) whith this kit and for the price you won't be ridiculous because even it's not the high end choice you will be able to do a good job, Lewitt is a good brand but not enough knowed for me, i had the opportnity of. using a Rex 640 kick mic ( dual capsules) and i can say that is one of the best mic i have used, it is not a cheap one but as it is a master piece in your equipement for me it's a good choice make an A/B test with a Shure beta 52 and you will hear the difference. The thing is that the B 52 is well knowed and always asked in the riders of most of bands. Hello from Switzerland mountains.☃️🇨🇭🌲❤️
Good question. Slightly different, I found the SEs drier sounding. The SE8s are very good, arguably crisper than the 140s. Long story short, I’m using the Lewitt’s from now on in the studio.
@thebeardedkozak I feel the Lewitt Tom and snare mics have a more even tone and attack. The SEs are slightly wooly in the mids. Both are great. The SE Tom mounts are far better.

Excellent commentary on your work. Sounds great! Thanks a bunch.

That open hihat from "Fool in the rain" love it!

Thanks for the kind works. This is a great recording combination.
Dude these sound great! I've never tried anything Lewitt before... That price point is impressive
Yeh, they’re my go-to-mics in the studio now for sure.
So no need individual mic for tom?

Ah thanks. The A/B comparison was “Out of phase” and then “In Phase” audio. All the same recording. B was in phase.
@@EdThorne Aye you're welcome. Oh wow I could barely tell a difference but I have a tendency to like oddities lololol

@EdThorne, I see that you answered my exact question below. Thank you!!!

Hello from Switzerland mountains.☃️🇨🇭🌲❤️
Would you say it is a better set than SE Vpack Arena Kit?
Good question. Slightly different, I found the SEs drier sounding. The SE8s are very good, arguably crisper than the 140s. Long story short, I’m using the Lewitt’s from now on in the studio.
Thank you for the info😀
@@EdThorne To make a short story longer lol, would you mind sharing a few major key reasons why you have made the switch from the SE over to Lewwit?
@thebeardedkozak I feel the Lewitt Tom and snare mics have a more even tone and attack. The SEs are slightly wooly in the mids. Both are great. The SE Tom mounts are far better.
@@EdThorne Thank you!
