Opinions on these real drums?

Hey dudes,

What do you reckon to these drums as a drum-only mix? I know it's kind of hard to judge without the rest of the music, but I've only got shitty scratches at the moment, and was focusing on mixing the drums on their own.

So what you reckon? Only layering is on the kick. Everything else is natural drums, with EQ'ing and a bit of Nebula here and there.

overheads are a little dull, esp on the hihat.
but still within whats acceptable, id say.

snare lacks punch, although i like the sound.

depending on the track, if your not going for an in your face drumsound, this might work very well.

i guess on a busy track youd need way more attack on the snare.
try a transient designer, might work wonders!

Thanks Danny!

The track isn't busy during the first half, but the 2nd half can get quite busy. I'll keep playing with the snare.
