My TAMA snare drum samples

Great that you liked it. It is 5.5x14. It is realy tight but very sensetive to playing. Never sounded good enough with a weak drummer. Any instrument sounds better with a good musician though ))
 
Funny you say that, as mine is actually my preferred snare for drummers that hit like wimps because it's a loud as fuck snare. Obviously sounds better being hit hard though. Rim shots on this snare will tear your head off!

may depend of tuning and room. My room is pretty damped, over damped I would say )) So Everything sounds not so loud as it could be in the room with more reflections.
BTW forgot to say, samples are stereo files because they have a little (-10-12db) overhead and room mics blended with close mics. So I suggest to use them in stereo and to not split in to mono.
