Hello everyone, been reading for a while but never posted before...

I've been recording on my own recently to better learn the art. My
focus has been to learn engineering but mostly for accurate
performances. I own a Presonus firepod and I close mic with good
quality gear but a poor sounding room. A better room/treatment will
come in time...

I've been trying to clear up an annoying 'stutter' on my kick tracks
as I realise it could be a bad habit, I play 'off' the head, not
'into' it. Lately, I've noticed the same effect on some reputable
website demos like this one which *is* very cool.

Is this common in the recording world, am I making a big deal out of
this for nothing or should I continue working on this issue?

Thanks for your time.
