So while recording this weekend I kept having troubles with 16 inch floor tom sounding like total fucking shit. When I seemed to get the drum close to sounding good the recording proved me wrong, I kept getting sympathetic ring (way too much) and that Boing! sound when I backed the head off. I freaking took both heads off , they appeared fine , and started all over, still the drum sounded like shit , I even walked around my room with it and it sounded like ass!!
Tape , moon gel , cymbal felts, mic placement , nothing worked, I could get it close but it didn't translate. So then I thought maybe the drum head is bad? It was a set of heads I used for one gig and then took off so yea technically they weren't brand new , but I know for sure the head wasn't bent or damaged since I took it off and checked it .
Maybe its bad from sitting for 6 months ? Its a remo clear pinstripe .
