Sounds pretty good to me! How did you record it? Is it for jazz/funk type music? The kick sounds really funky (in a good way)! I don't hear the "small room sound" that you can hear on a lot of the drums that where recorded in home studios. Is the snare a little phasey? To me it lacks sharpness, but I am not sure what type of sound you were going for.

yeah the snare seems to be a little phasy... I think its because I had a dist channel and a normal one - Ilike the kick sound as well but the snare is kind of to thin to me - how do you fatten up your snare sound? It`s not a certain style - I just recorded it when I had some time between two projects... played myself and I`m no drummer at all |

I read on Mike Shipleys threads about using a short delay on the snare and adding some down pitch shifting to it to fatten the snare up. We tried it, and got great results
