Also, a lot of drummers do things like putting a pillow in the bass drum and a dampening ring on the snare, it reduces overtones.

Gavin Harrison (Porcupine Tree, King Crimson) does this.

I use blankets, and a dampening ring on the snare.

What are your preferred drumheads? I dig clear Remo Emperors, and can't stand Evans. Thoughts?
