I listen to a lot of music, and there seem to be certain unclassifiable "styles," if you will, that distinguish certain drum sounds from others...particularly the snare - there are the "bang" ones, the "whack" ones, the "oomph" ones, the "plap" ones and the list just goes on and on... I've played a number of kits, but there's a particular drum sound that strikes me as more "expensive-sounding," for lack of a better term. I could think of some examples, but I'm too tired right now. I guess what I'm wondering is - is the sound more about the mic technique/compression, or the drums themselves? I imagine it a combination of the both to some degree, but there are so many different sounds, it's hard to tell sometimes.
