Hey folks,
I've already got triggers on all my drums and already have a drum module to convert it to midi and send to my PC. I also already have an audio interface with inputs to spare. And I have a DAW and multiple drum VSTs. I now need a good recording solution for the drums. I don't need video. This is primarily for demo purposes and band practice (with good recordings desired) and not for professional results that you'd find on an album (I don't have the audio tech chops to pull that off anyway) and not for gigging.
I'm debating between the EAD10 and going with a 3 mic solution. This is my pros/cons list. I'm not gonna mention triggering options or EQ'ing, because I already have that.
EAD Pros:
* Simplicity. No extra stands, fewer wires. Built-in mixing. Turn on and go.
EAD Cons:
* From what I understand, recording isn't as good as a traditional 3 mic setup
* More than double the cost of some cheap mics that still have good reviews (like the Pyle Pros)
