Winner chicken dinner!
How do you guys deal with cymbal bashers. I just got this guy who smashed the crashes on every 1/4th beat of every song, then when he actually wanted to emphasize the cymbals he hit them mega hard but there was little volume change and the tone actually sounded WORSE.
The thing is, on certain rare parts where he played the cymbals in a normal fashion the drums as a whole actually sounded okay, even the cymbals. When we were listening to the mix and it got to one of those parts he actually said "whoa, that sounds good", then the cymbal bashing came in and everything sounded like crap and got all phasey and thin again.
