ive been liking the wood snares expansion lately, was wondering what cymbals and kicks you use with the snares, like bfd3 core library or something else? also metal snares too i reckon, ive never felt sure what exactly they were made to be used with, like what would hypothetically work best to pair them with

I’ve so far, only used the **Canopus Zelkova** with the **Modern Retro Tama** kit in a project and thought it paired well. Basically just swapped the snare out… no mixing/matching from other expansions. I generally like to keep my expansion kits with most of the stock kit pieces. The snare is the only thing I may swap. I think this helps keep the vibe of the kit intact. I will add extra cymbals if I need them though.
Just pick a kit where you like the shells and cycle through your expansion snares to see what may sound the best. There are no real rules at the end of the day.

I use it with metal snares and Dark Farm, pretty much exclusively now.
