Hey again,
I made a thread a week ago and posted a recording that was done with a snare mic and 2 overheads. I mentioned I was getting a kick mic in within a week. Well it's here, and I made another recording with it added to the mix. All of the settings are the same from the previous recording I posted, this one just has the kick mic added in. I'm liking the sound of the kick, now I just need some help with the levels. What do you guys think should be brought up, brought down, stay the same, be different?
Here is the link to both recordings. I'll label each recording so you know which one is the old one, and which one is the new one.

And for those of you who don't know, here's my situation. I use Garageband on my Macbook Pro because I don't have any other recording software. Therefore, all I do is plug my mics into my mixer board, and run the outputs of the mixer board directly into the line-in jack of my laptop. Not the best, I know, but it's all I have, and I try to make everything sound decent on one track.
Mics are Shure Beta 52A on kick, SM57 on snare, and 2 Audio Technica 2020's as overheads.
Thanks!
Chris
