Moses Schneider demonstrates capturing a full drum sound with a single character mic, focusing on the "V" mic technique.
Inspired by old recordings, he positions the mic to capture both the snare and kick, enhancing the kit's character through heavy compression and gating. This approach led to his famous "Wurst" technique (German for "sausage"), named because heavily processed waveforms resemble a sausage.
By minimizing the need for multiple mics, this method offers a distinctive and efficient drum recording solution, but also blends nicely into more complex setups.
