Hi. This is my drumset in my living room. I was playing with a solo recording of jimi hendrix. Anyways I just changed the snare and the hihats and also repositioned some mics.

Anyways let me know. I think I am deaf after all of this.
 
ah...the blues...well by playing to hendrix you are at a disadvantage of not having the double bass 60s gretch sound thing going but if you are going for authentic then you would need to scoop out the middle a bit but not bad ..not bad at all. it must be hard playing to a solo of jimmy when he isnt able to react back...cool.
 
Yeah the drums are too loud altogether. And they really should'nt compete with Jimi Hendrix. The bass drum is recorded with a beta 52 and there is a compressor on it as well. There are no mics on the toms at all though. I will get started miking toms. It's just a laziness thing.
 
I dunno... I liked it. Yeah, they were a bit loud and you do need to mic your toms (at least move the overheads down a hair if nothing else). Solid playing, and I'd like to hear some originals from you.
