Realism Check

Recommended Posts

I'm a drummer, and while I agree that dynamics are important to realistic reproduction, it's the details (of the sound) that makes it for me. Let's use the snare drum as an example:  Can I hear the body/resonance of the snare? Ah, that's a maple or mahogany shell. Or is it choked, due to poor tuning? Is the wire set raw steel, or chromed snappies? Is that a single-ply coated head, or maybe a two-ply with damping? These aren't details that I necessarily care or think about when listening to music, but I will notice and be pleasantly surprised when they are properly reproduced.
