This is a recording of two gretsch catalina maple floor toms, one 14 inches in diameter, one 16 inches. I replaced the original tom feet with pearl air suspension feet, which gave a huge improvement in tone, resonance and sustain. Recorded with a sony ecm-ds70p stereo recording microphone into an iriver h340 mp3 player. Normalized in sony sound forge.
Percussion kit sampled in my studio. 3 - 5 dynamic range shots (pp, p, pf, f, ff, fff). Recorded with two sm57 (up and down), overheads crosstalk - se3.
Drums recorded in stereo. Samples have compression, eq, and a slight touch of reverb / room ambience added. This makes them cut through a complete mix without further processing. Enjoy!.

A setting on my toy keyboard called "pearl drop" shifted two octaves down (shifting this far down made the sound just start to break up in a glitchy sounding way).
