I've been messing around and trying to get a drum sound for my bands EP and I feel that it's very weak.
Here they are in the context of a mix: http://dl.dropbox.com/u/3689406/Conqueror (Demo).mp3
Guitars: Solo_C with Catharsis impulses
Bass: two tracks processed (one sub, one ampeg SVX)
And here they are soloed (unmastered, UPDATED): http://dl.dropbox.com/u/3689406/Conqueror Drums Unmastered.mp3
I'm using kick 10 (detuned about -7) and blending brian kick. For snares I'm using Snare 22, Snare 15, and Joey Snare 1 and a Superior snare.
Toms are avatar and New Maple blended and cymbals/hats are avatar.
All the shells and hats are going to a parallel compression.
I feel like there's an awkward balance of room and verb compared to the full kit, so do snare/toms need more verb and/or room sound? Do I need more room sound in general (I feel the cymbals sound fake because of this)? Or do my drums surprisingly sound good and I'm just thinking it?
Hope somebody can help!
