Red face Need help on these drums

Hey guys,

Just have been working on a side project, and I've got these drums, that just seem to let the whole song down.

They were hastily recorded. The mics, were a beta 52a on the kick, Audix i5 on the top side of the snare, and Audix D2 on the toms, Audix D4 on one of the low toms, and a 57 on one of the floor toms that only gets hit once. I used AKG C300B as overheads. But later down the line, I realise only one of the overheads were recording. (Really stupid.) So now I've only got a close room mic.

I've tried parallel comping them, and some other techniques I've picked up.

What I hate most is the snare sound, which I've tried to double with some samples I have of a snare on Logic. I also don't like the sound of the cymbals, but I think thats a problem with only one mic.

Maybe I'm expecting more then what I was given, I don't know.

Any advice on the sound will be greatly appreciated.
