Zakk's Mix Feedback
Not sure what the band’s sound is normally like, but I’d love the drums to be a little beefier. The kick is getting lost a little bit.

The whole drums in general? or just the toms? I only had the stereo overhead track to work with, a track for kick and snare. I particularly didn’t use any drum samples on this one. I think I could separate the tom rolls and beef em up a little. I should add more click to the kick so it won’t get lost too. Thanks Zakk for your comments!
Yes I was referring to all the drums, but the toms probably need it the most. I know it stinks when you don’t have all the shells to work with. If it was me and it was a paying client, I’d probably end up manually adding samples to each tom hit.
