Why do all drum synths have no mids?

<!-- SC_OFF --><div class="md"><p>So I have the Model:Cycles and I do love it but whenever I use it in my tracks with other synths I've noticed it sits really weird in the mix because there's no mid content. I often have to roll off high freq too. I've owned the Drumbrute Impact too with similar results. My question is is there a drum synth (not talking sampler) which has more meaty mid content? I want a meaty mid snare, not these toppy clicky ones.</p> <p>Don't get me wrong, I love the Cycles. I'm looking for a drum synth where I can customise every drum part so the Cycles does tick most of the boxes. Basically design drum sounds from scratch with synthesis. A lot of the time with my tracks I make my own drum samples with the Korg Monologue and Arturia Microfreak but the process does take a bit too long.</p> <p>Edit: I'm aware this'll cause a lot of debate. So bring it!!</p> <p>Edit: If you disagree with my opinions about the Cycles and have a Cycles, please educate me on things I should try.</p> </div><!-- SC_ON --> submitted by <a href="https://www.reddit.com/user/Machine_Excellent"> /u/Machine_Excellent </a> <br/> <span><a href="https://www.reddit.com/r/synthesizers/comments/qr5hm2/why_do_all_drum_synths_have_no_mids/">[link]</a></span> <span><a href="https://www.reddit.com/r/synthesizers/comments/qr5hm2/why_do_all_drum_synths_have_no_mids/">[comments]</a></span>
