I recently had a jam with a singer/home producer who was very overbearing and kept having to stop the tune because my drums weren't exactly what he programmed on the computer or the snare sound wasn't quite right. I'd literally heard the song twice before in my headphones and didn't know it, so getting the feel seemed more important than trying to work out which tom sound suited the 4& accent. I thought it was down right rude to stop a song midway through a bar and ask me to adjust snare wires. It honestly made me feel embarrassed because I'm not the best drummer and I'm not the quickest to pick things up. I politely left the group after explaining my objections, as did one of the guitarists. It was nice to meet people in the band and I made friends, but I couldn't work with a group where somebody was so overbearing.
Also cymbals sound crap on phone, they just do. The best you can do is put the phone the opposite end of the room to them and hope for the best.
