Jodorowsky电影套件可以描述Sleep doken的舞台作品

这可能是Jodorowsky电影的标题：Sleep token的舞台作品可以设置为

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的电影中设置为作品，他们的音乐将金属，电子，DJENT和精心创作的元素融合到改变意识的药水中。在睡眠代币节目中，歌曲是“产品”，是“仪式”，室内工程师汤姆·派克（Thom Pike）混合了如此强大的声音，以至于确实可以召唤超凡脱俗的声音。他为鼓手II的护身符是Autix的D6，很快就会与新的D6X以及Cymbals上的SCX1HC紧凑型冷凝器麦克风一起加入。

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，虽然D6被称为首选鼓解决方案，但它也出现在意外的应用中。他开始说：“我遇到的每位声音工程师都使用了D6，并告诉我这是踢鼓的麦克风。” “除了在职业生涯中，我什么都不使用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声誉在于它之前，但这并不意味着踢是唯一的烈性黑啤酒，紧凑的动态主力能带来结果。 “除了踢之外，我还将其在10英寸，12英寸和16英寸的Toms上使用。每个都有自己的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）和乐队偶然地发现了toms上D6的优点。他回忆说：“有一天，我们尝试了声音检查中的笑声。” “然后，鼓手，II和我都非常喜欢它，以至于我们一直呆在它上，现在这是我们的标准设置。与D系列的其余部分相比，麦克风很大，因此，对于那些可以看到套件的围观者来说，它几乎看起来像是额外的小鼓，或者在那里看起来像是咖啡杯，但声音值得，视觉上值得。”

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。我们最近获得的D6X通过为您提供不同声音的多功能性，从而使麦克风变得更好。”

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.”

尽管如此，派克将很快尝试另一个Audix主食D4。他说：“我应该提到，在我目前正在进行的巡回演出中，带有乐队的经文，我们确实在较小的toms上有D4，他们给了我我对D6的最喜欢的东西。” “考虑到任何情况下的鼓尺寸较小，您需要较小的低端。”

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经过精心贴合，派克很快希望将他的注意力应用于cymbals，并使用Audix麦克风，他认为其高心态拾音器模式使其理想成为任务。他说：“我刚刚获得了微型铅笔麦克风，SCX1HC冷凝器，它们的声音对于它们的尺寸来说是惊人的。” “从字面上看，它们的大小与您的小指的大小相同。我想在一些较小的Cymbals中捕获细节，例如飞溅物，需要可以非常接近和低调的东西。我们尝试了其他小型diophragm冷凝器，它们只是在此应用程序中不起作用。”

“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）对音频助手的建议是“永远不要害怕提出问题”，他们希望站在节奏后面的乐队之后的乐队。 “毫无疑问。愚蠢的事情是要犯一个令人尴尬的错误，因为您没有问一个问题。在我的早期职业生涯中，我的价值很高，看起来像我已经知道了一切。但是您在那一刻闲逛，甚至您也看到了经验丰富的Foh Foh，那些参加竞技场的人仍在问问题。

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.”

在派克的不久的将来，D6X是D6的演变，通过三位位开关，它复制了经典的D6频率响应，然后添加了两条曲线，并增加了中段和高中。 “我刚刚得到了D6X，”他指出。 “我们还没有机会用D6进行弃用或在火中使用它，但我非常期待它。”
