The Zoom R24 - How to Record a One-Man Band. Ep.2 - Recording Drums

A tutorial on using the Zoom R24 to record a one-man band, including recording a set of drums. A comprehensive description of my work flow in the Zoom R24, when recording as a one-man band. The Zoom is a great way to learn more about recording, mixing and mastering. In this series, I mic and record a set of Slingerland Magnum drums using the Glyn Johns mic method, which is a four mic set-up. In addition to the Zoom R24, I employ a Rane MSB-1 Pre amp. The mics utilized include Cascade Fathead Ribbon Mics, an AKG P220 Condenser Mic, and a CAD KBM412 bass drum mic. Remo Ambassador on most batter heads, except the snare drum and Emperor reso heads all around. The bass drum head is a Controlled Sound Black Dot.

Is it possible to record, say 3 tracks on the R24: a click track & two gtr tracks, & export those files as .wav files to be used by Logic?
