Great point. That's one of the many reasons I recommend earplugs or muffs, especially to new drummers. Even cheap foam earplugs cut out lots of midrange frequencies and can make your drums sound more like a record.
as a recording studio engineer and drummer, a secret about Zildjians is that while they may not sound the best in the room, their recorded sound still has something special that others don't. whether it's the right sound for the song is a different question, but when you need it, you'll be hard pressed to find it with another company.
I don't really care for AI in google search results or email. It's often wrong and not what I'm looking for. I would like a much better Siri, so hopefully that's part of what we get.
