Mooch is right.
Bapu is wrong.
HTH.
p.s. it's a great sound to aim for.
I've been trying to re-create my 70s sound with sample sets it is very difficult. Every library I go through they are tuned wrong and have the snare tensioned so it is almost choking the drum in nearly every case. I can't name one set of samples or drum sampler that gets rim shots right. It's pretty sad really when you think of how much stuff is out there.
I just got my trusty old snare drum down from the loft and I'm currently sampling that to try and get what I want. I figured that just making singular hits doesn't sound right so I'm getting in the groove playing air drums with one hand and hitting the snare with the other. It looks pretty mad when I do it but the sounds are much better than just trying to make singular deliberate hits.
It's a painstaking process though comparing for volume and hit quality in order to make a useable set. I'm just using a dynamic mic for the close position and have a condenser about 8ft away to get a bit of 'room'.
