Hey! Amateur engineer here ![Smile :) :)](data:image/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAIAAAAAAAP///yH5BAEAAAAALAAAAAABAAEAAAIBRAA7)
I need some help with mixing drum overheads. My problem is that the cymbals tend to sound very airy and distant, making my overall mix sound all over the place. Is there any way I can salvage this without having to rerecord the entire drum set/song (because of time constraints and that the song is played under a "live" situation so it's hard to sync the drums with the rest of the tracks)? I've tried to reinforce the OH tracks using cymbals created from Reason but I find copy pasting very very tedious. My EQ settings doesn't seem to help much either. I just want to have the OHs sound closer and brighter.
I've seen people use triggering to make drum kicks sound stronger and wondering if I could do the same for the OHs. Can someone let me know a little about triggering and how its done in protools?
Thanks!
