Not bad at all! Loved the tom, snare and overheads, not quite the kick so much, but it sure works. Definitely not a barrier to getting good drum tracks!

Another video, this time with a real drummer

yepp,not too bad sorry couldn't resist

Whoa! How did you do that? I want a animated gif like that

Any processing? Undeniably a great sound for $100!

I was handling the live audio for a low budget monthly live music series last year in the city library system. The mics they had were mostly Pyles. I had a lot of occasions to use them with the whole gamut of instruments, both for the house and in recording, and those cheap buggers were a pleasant surprise. I can't remember what model they were but they were ordered by non-audio pencil pushers so I can guarantee they were at least close to the cheapest available. One caveat was the terrible handling noise (maybe of that particular model). And they had a cheesy, lightweight feel that didn't inspire confidence that they would survive a fall off a stand. But they sounded pretty darn ok.

I think one of the issues with the kick mic may be that it does have some large amounts of handling noise...I filled it with expanding foam today, we shall see, when the kids are done practicing Ill swap the kick mic back out for the pyle

Simply put- gear doesn't matter. The guy/gal's knowledge of how to use the gear is the only thing making a difference here.

Where did you pay $100 for this? I only see them for $130? For $100 I figure I could just write up a blog post about them... but that extra $30? :D

If it's an overhead mic of course not. But I can EQ Close mic on every mic we use to overcome any capsule. Even that boomy ass AKG I mentioned. I should clarify that it's Channel Filters pre fader first, then EQ.
