Jodorowsky電影套件可以描述Sleep doken的舞台作品

這可能是Jodorowsky電影的標題：Sleep token的舞台作品可以設置為

Sleep Token's stage productions could be set pieces in a Jodorowsky film, and their music blends elements of metal, electronica, djent and careful songwriting into a consciousness-altering potion. At the Sleep Token shows, songs are ‘offerings,’ shows are ‘rituals,’ and front-of-house engineer Thom Pike mixes a sound so powerful it could indeed summon the otherworldly. His talisman for drummer II is the D6 from AUDIX, soon to be joined by the new D6X as well as the SCX1HC compact condenser mic on cymbals.

Sleep Token的舞台作品可以在Jodorowsky的電影中設置為作品，他們的音樂將金屬，電子，DJENT和精心創作的元素融合到改變意識的藥水中。在睡眠代幣節目中，歌曲是“產品”，是“儀式”，室內工程師湯姆·派克（Thom Pike）混合瞭如此強大的聲音，以至於確實可以召喚超凡脫俗的聲音。他為鼓手II的護身符是Autix的D6，很快就會與新的D6X以及Cymbals上的SCX1HC緊湊型冷凝器麥克風一起加入。

Pike noted that while the D6 is known as a go-to kick drum solution, it also turns up in an unexpected application. “Every sound engineer ever I met used the D6 and told me it was the microphone for kick drum,” he began. “I’ve never used anything but the D6 on kick in my professional career.”

派克指出，雖然D6被稱為首選鼓解決方案，但它也出現在意外的應用中。他開始說：“我遇到的每位聲音工程師都使用了D6，並告訴我這是踢鼓的麥克風。” “除了在職業生涯中，我什麼都不使用D6。”

The D6’s reputation for reproduction of kick drum precedes it, but that doesn’t mean kick is the only source on which the stout, compact dynamic workhorse delivers results. “In addition to the kick, I use it on the 10-inch, 12-inch, and 16-inch toms. Each has its own D6.”

D6在踢鼓的繁殖之前的聲譽在於它之前，但這並不意味著踢是唯一的烈性黑啤酒，緊湊的動態主力能帶來結果。 “除了踢之外，我還將其在10英寸，12英寸和16英寸的Toms上使用。每個都有自己的D6。”

Pike and the band discovered the merits of the D6 on toms quite by accident. “We tried it as a laugh in sound check one day,” he recalled. “Then, both the drummer, II, and I loved it so much that we stayed with it, and now that’s our standard setup. The mics are large compared to the rest of the D series, so to onlookers who can see the kit it almost looks like there are extra tiny drums or maybe coffee mugs up there, but the sound is well worth the visual oddity.”

派克（Pike）和樂隊偶然地發現了toms上D6的優點。他回憶說：“有一天，我們嘗試了聲音檢查中的笑聲。” “然後，鼓手，II和我都非常喜歡它，以至於我們一直呆在它上，現在這是我們的標准設置。與D系列的其餘部分相比，麥克風很大，因此，對於那些可以看到套件的圍觀者來說，它幾乎看起來像是額外的小鼓，或者在那裡看起來像是咖啡杯，但聲音值得，視覺上值得。”

Asked to describe that sound, Pike reflected, “The D6 is essentially an out-of-the box mic. When we put them on the toms, they sounded correct before even adding any EQ. It gives you that presence, but the ‘gut’ of the tom as well. Also, we have triggers for gates on the drums to control bleed because the stage is quite loud, and the response of the D6 interacts well with the gates. It makes the whole kit sound very snappy and punchy. “I’ve never used anything but the D6 on kick in my professional career. The D6X, which we acquired recently makes a great mic even better by giving you the versatility of different sounds.”

It makes the whole kit sound very snappy and有力。我們最近獲得的D6X通過為您提供不同聲音的多功能性，從而使麥克風變得更好。”

Still, Pike will try another AUDIX staple, the D4, soon. “I should mention that on the tour I’m currently on, with the band Night Verses, we do have D4s on the smaller toms, and they give me most of what I like about the D6,” he said. “You need less low end given the smaller drum size in any case.”

儘管如此，派克將很快嘗試另一個Audix主食D4。他說：“我應該提到，在我目前正在進行的巡迴演出中，帶有樂隊的經文，我們確實在較小的toms上有D4，他們給了我我對D6的最喜歡的東西。” “考慮到任何情況下的鼓尺寸較小，您需要較小的低端。”

Sleep Token’s drum kit is meticulously close-miked, and Pike soon hopes to apply his attention to detail to cymbals, using an AUDIX microphone whose hypercardioid pickup pattern he thinks makes it ideal for the task. “I just acquired the tiny pencil mics, the SCX1HC condensers, and their sound is amazing for their size,” he said. “They’re literally the size of your pinky finger. I want to capture the detail in some of the smaller cymbals like splashes and need something that can go very close and be low-profile. We tried other small-diaphragm condensers, and they just didn’t work in this application.”

睡眠令牌的鼓工套件經過精心貼合，派克很快希望將他的注意力應用於cymbals，並使用Audix麥克風，他認為其高心態拾音器模式使其理想成為任務。他說：“我剛剛獲得了微型鉛筆麥克風，SCX1HC冷凝器，它們的聲音對於它們的尺寸來說是驚人的。” “從字面上看，它們的大小與您的小指的大小相同。我想在一些較小的Cymbals中捕獲細節，例如飛濺物，需要可以非常接近和低調的東西。我們嘗試了其他小型diophragm冷凝器，它們只是在此應用程序中不起作用。”

“Never be scared to ask questions” is Pike’s advice to audio acolytes who hope to stand behind the faders for a band like Sleep Token. “No question is too dumb. The dumb thing is to make an embarrassing mistake because you didn’t ask a question. In my earlier career I placed a high value on looking like I already knew everything. But you hang around while, and you see even veteran FOH people who do arena tours still asking questions. So just ask.”

派克（Pike）對音頻助手的建議是“永遠不要害怕提出問題”，他們希望站在節奏後面的樂隊之後的樂隊。 “毫無疑問。愚蠢的事情是要犯一個令人尷尬的錯誤，因為您沒有問一個問題。在我的早期職業生涯中，我的價值很高，看起來像我已經知道了一切。但是您在那一刻閒逛，甚至您也看到了經驗豐富的Foh Foh，那些參加競技場的人仍在問問題。

Also in Pike’s immediate future is the D6X, an evolution of the D6 which, via a three-position switch, duplicates the classic D6 frequency response, then adds two curves with increased midrange and high-mids. “I just got the D6X,” he noted. “We haven’t had a chance yet to A-B it with the D6 or use it under fire, but I’m quite looking forward to it.”

在派克的不久的將來，D6X是D6的演變，通過三位位開關，它複製了經典的D6頻率響應，然後添加了兩條曲線，並增加了中段和高中。 “我剛剛得到了D6X，”他指出。 “我們還沒有機會用D6進行棄用或在火中使用它，但我非常期待它。”
