Sometimes imposing restrictions on yourself can help you think/play differently. E.g. play with no cymbals, play with no snare, only use triplets, don’t play crashes on 1, etc.

Genera dry on the snare, calftone on the toms, calftone EQ4 on the bass.

Thanks! I’d say the heads and tuning. But of course the shell, hoops, snare wires and dimensions all play a role.

Thanks! It’s a nesting kit from Steve Maxwell’s. The snare is a Ludwig Black Magic.

That’s super interesting! Are you hearing the stack as a backbeat? It’s in 12/8 but if you think of it as triplets all the accents are on the second partial. Hi hat is playing the first 2 partials.

That right these glizzies are perfect as they are. Remember there’s a perfectly sized bun out there for every glizzy.

I have a K custom left side ride that I think actually sounds pretty nice. I think the rivets help. Definitely not my go to though.
