There were several mics on that kick drum including an AKG C414 on the batter side. The mics were summed into a single channel. Most producers/engineers use some degree of processing whilst tracking.

Superior Drummer 3 was intentionally recorded ultra clean with very transparent pre-amps. Rooms of Hansa, Fields of Rock and Hitmaker all have varying amounts of saturation and compression from the console pre-amps, tape emulation hardware in the case of Fields of Rock or real tape for the the Hitmaker. Additionally many of the Hitmaker presets have a lot of compression on the ambience mics.

If you listen to only the close and overhead mics of the different SDX’s the velocity response should be very similar

Thanks for the positive feedback. Unfortunately there are no current plans to release the extra sounds. For clarity all the drums in the released version of the Hitmaker SDX are recorded to tape.
