How to Mic Drums at Home (The Simple Setup That Actually Works)

Recording drums at home can feel intimidating, but it doesn’t have to be. In this episode of Drum Day, Lex from Feedback Audio teams up with engineer Buddy to break down how to properly set up, tune, and mic a full drum kit for home recording — using real-world techniques that actually work. This video walks through the entire process step by step, starting with drum preparation and tuning, then moving into mic placement for kick, snare, toms, overheads, and room mics. We also solo each microphone so you can hear exactly what it’s capturing and understand how every mic contributes to the full drum sound. Whether you’re working with a full interface and multiple mics or recording with limited gear at home, this video focuses on placement, phase, and listening, not expensive equipment. The goal is to help you get better drum recordings using what you already have. What you’ll learn: How drum tuning affects your recordings before mics even come out Kick drum mic placement (inside vs outside) Snare top and bottom mic techniques Tom mic placement and bleed control Overhead mic placement and phase alignment Why overheads and room mics matter more than close mics How to use room mics creatively in small spaces How to record drums at home with limited microphones Raw audio examples from each mic for real-world reference All drum samples in this video are recorded in a living room, not a commercial studio, to show what’s actually possible at home. If you’re an artist, producer, or engineer trying to improve your drum recordings without overcomplicating the process, this one actually matters.
