I am not a drummer, I'm a Bass player, but have a drum set at the house that is going to be used for recording. They are Tama Swingstar drums, I know that they are a low end Tama set but was told that the heads and tuning are what matters most. These drums sound awful, they ring with massive overtones. I'm looking to get heads that will not ring with these overtones but not eliminate them to the point that hydraulic heads do. I need suggestions for the Bass, snare, and 3 toms, 12" 13" 16". What are the Bass drum heads in the front called that have the hole in them? Are they the best for recording and should the hole be centered or off to the side? Does it really matter what heads are on the bottom of the toms and snare? What, if any difference does tuning the bottom head have on the sound? Any help you can give me I would appreciate.
