I think there are a few timing issues, and the snare isn't centered, it's a little to the right. Other than that, I like the sound of it. The kick has a nice slap to it, the snare sound is good , and the hi hat action sounds nice too. How many mics are you using and how do you have them set up?
Thanks for the input saads. If you're so inclined, check out the thread in the clinic and let me know if they sound any better (latest mix is at post #17):

As far as mics, here's my setup:
D112 on kick
Audix i5 on snare top
Sennheiser e609 on snare bottom
GLS ES57's on all three toms
ACM 310's (off brand tube SDCs) on overheads
CAD M177's as room mics--about 12 feet apart, and 12 feet out in front of the kit.
If you read the LeeRosario's post that I referred to in my opening post, you'll see that I was trying out a specific method he described--it combines the recording of the performance with samples of the same kit from the same session.
The performance is pretty much what you'd expect: combination of the the close mics on the kit and the overheads. The samples that I layered in were a combination of the close mics and the room mics.
I compressed & gated the shit out the performance tracks--that gave me the punch and attack I wanted. But I didn't add any compression to the layered in samples (in fact, I added a bit of reverb on a couple of those)--that gave me the body and "boom" that I had been previously missing. I'm still on the learning curve, but I'm encouraged. And while it's certainly more time consuming to create sampled tracks to go along with each individual drum, I'm finding that the combination gives me tons of flexibility in terms of adjusting the sound after the session.
