The drums are actually going to be replaced with a brand new Mapex kit in about 2-3 weeks depending on when she comes in. All maple shells, the works. So that should be a lot better. I did close mic the kick so I could try to mix it all up a bit better than what I did on the MP3 I attached above.

I'm still looking for a better vocal mic and am open to low end suggestions.

I mainly just got it together it wasn't well mixed by any means.

And sorry I'm a naturally tense person so I definitely need to relax more all the time. haha
Keep at it!

Re low end vox mics - I dunno really! - A Gauge or SP C1 may well your voice! (A brighter more open-sounding mic basically) - I have a Red5 RV10 which is kinda 414-ish with good mid-range detail (not honky though), and fairly bright but not overly so
