Just finished drums with a band I'm working with and I decided to record samples of the drums. Here's 5 hard snare hits, let me know if you like it - I think it might be a touch too roomy but it could work well in the right mix:

Its a 14x6.5 tama superstar custom snare. Can't remember the skins. Tuned the top head around 87 on the drum dial and bottom head 78 - tuned by ear first though, the drumdial was just to get it perfect. SM81 on the top, Beta 57 on the bottom, KM184s O/H and SM7b as a mono room mic.

These are processed but when I was mucking around with them earlier they sound great with more EQ and compression. I'll post medium hits and kick and tom samples when I can. I hope you find a use for them!

Edit: the last one is distorting slightly... I'll update these later though!
 
No prob - those were just thrown together quickly. I'll post the ones that got used after I've finished up with the band
