Well, its not so much the hats as the mix around them that makes them how they are.

So maybe you need to work on your mix and worry less about your hats? A good mix will see everything fall into place. If your mix isn't balanced you won't be able to get the individual elements right no matter how hard you try.

I spent ages trying to get kicks and hats right before I realised I needed to concentrate on the mix and not the kick/hat etc.
