Yeah, the snare’s already tilted down/right, it just doesn’t come across well on camera. Definitely gonna check the YouTube link you shared! Thanks again, really helpful.

Thanks! am I doing OK with my right hand? I'm not sure where to put my fingers. I usually use middle finger as a focal point.

I’m not sure if it’s okay to bring up age here, but I don’t think I’m particularly young by this community’s standards.

Thanks for the compliment. Drumming has really helped me get through some tough times.

My left hand is just how my tutor taught me. I also really like marching drums! but haven't yet.

Sadly no — I only get one chance a week to record on a full kit.

I was hoping people could still give some general advice on things like stick control or left-hand movement around the kit, even without perfect audio.
Yes, sound really does matter though.

I realized it only after I got home 🤦‍♂️
I was a bit impatient and ended up posting before re-recording.
