What do you use ?
In the past I had to mix programmed drums using DFHS samples for a band, room samples sounded cool especially.
When I record myself I ALWAYS mic the room, that's what adds the natural vibe to my mixes.
I'm currently mixing an album for a band that has programmed drums but they don't know what to use for samples. Any free multi velocities room samples out there ?
I'm really happy with my snare samples collection but I really want to add multi room samples to this, but it has to wait for my new studio room :(
 
I really like the Snare 18 Z4 from Slate. Reduce a bit the sustain maybe and that's it! Awesome room samples

this is where it gets complicated...which version are you talking about?

snare 18 was the best sounding snare in Slate2, it sounds entirely different in the current version, but I think 22 is now what used to be 18....
