I CAN SMELL EM!
Can't I get our drum set to sound good.
Over the weekend I heard a small 4 piece band playing in a youth rally, their drummer sounded SO freaking good!!! I'm not talking about techniqe, I'm talking about sound!!! Man,... that snare, those toms all sounded so tight and powerful!
To begin with the set was not mic'd so their was nothing between me and the set except air.
Our drums are properly tuned and our drumer maintains them well, then why is it that it sounds like a trash can compared to that bands drums???? Their drums are a set of Yamahas, nothing spectacular and ours is Pearls. (not Exports)
Go easy on me guys I'm not the drummer, and I really don't know jack scnitt about drums but I can't get an answer from our drummer. And I would really like to improve the sound.
ELF
