Hm...kind of comparing apples to oranges, but it seems like I get a lot more low end and more detail (though that's a preference thing) from a mono drum room mic from my Oktava MK219; how far back in the room did you have this?

Raw track, R44 was 15ft out in front of the kit. Again, I didn't need this mic to pick up a lot of high end detail, just enough low end to make all the close mics gel in the mix.
