Sounds like the snare could use just a tad more compression, otherwise it sounds good.

the snare is giving off more bass then the kick it seems.

In terms of balance the drum feels fine and snaps well especially in corelation with the bass guitar. But most of the samples, especially the cymbals, sound quite robotic.

snare isn't loud enough imo.
and the low end of the snare wasn't too loud, the lowend of the kick is too low, I believe.

More compression?! I'd say a tad less, and it needs a touch of high mids, and needs to be turned up.

the cymbals are all real A customs no samples over then. i just compressed them
