Same here. My home recording kit is a 6-piece with hats, ride, and four crash cymbals.
My live version is a 4-piece with hats, ride, two crashes.

Snare and toms sound good to me. The kick seems a little tight and/or it's just a weird mic position. Not bad, I just think it could have more thud from a 22" kick.Bubba wrote: ↑Tue Jan 09, 2018 10:53 am I finally got my setup sorted.
I got Frank to record some grooves for an ambient/chillout piece I have in mind. He used his K and Kerope cymbals on this and it's only a sample of the whole session. I'm quite pleased with the sound.
Kit is Mapex V series, 12" and 16" toms, 22" kick. Batter heads are Remo Pinstripe, played in; reso heads Remo clear. Kick head is.... I dunno . Might have to invest in a Powerstroke 3. Snare is a Mapex Black Panther Machete. Neither of the toms are damped at all, the kick has a light pillow inside, touching both heads.
Opinions?

Yes, I know what you mean about the kick. I don't get it. There isn't a great deal of tension on either of the heads. As you say, it could be mic position, or a horrible head, or something else entirely. I must investigate further.Greg_L wrote: ↑Tue Jan 09, 2018 3:32 pmSnare and toms sound good to me.
