What do these drums need?

[Qwerty]

Just recorded yesterday - one track for kick, another for snare and left and right room/toms/cymbals tracks.

The attached link shows a short little clip.

I have not had a lot of experience mixing drums, so any advice on what to do NEXT would help a lot. To my ears they sound good already - (the drum sound, NOT the playing

Thanks,

Q.

Sounds good to me too. But you'll want to avoid using one track for snare, tom, and cymbals together. Brings you hard time in the mix. I think you should separate 'em. BTW, nice shoot, I think.

Cool -

I have four inputs so I have a track for snare, another for kick and a left and right track which is a mixdown of the overheads, toms and room mics.

The clip I posted was my attempt at getting them to sit together in some sort of coherent fashion.

Thanks - complete song is posted in the mixing clinic - song is called "Now I See" from -
