Room Acoustics and how it effects your drum sound

As the thread title says, I've been reading on room acoustics and how it effects drum sound in general. Most articles suggest building a room from scratch, with specific dimensions, measurements from one angle to the other, etc. etc.

Personally, I've got 8 walls in my room in total: padded floor and one padded wall. The overall sound is great. Not only that, both my guitarist's and bassist's are satisfied with the sound they get.

How does your room acoustic affect your overall drum/band sound?

I have found that I can always get the sound I want out of drums in any room.... But when you start moving the drums from room to room, that's when you run into problems and have to keep titrating your sound to effect.

I live in a farmhouse built around 1800, and I like to use the top floor to record stuff, mics can be placed in the drum room, hall, stairwell etc.

       I think you can adapt to many rooms by just changing your tuning, but for an ideal setup and sound I feel you need to have a tall ceiling, ( 10-20 feet high) and a bit of dampening. Only a little bit though, for the most part some sort of bass trap in the corners of the room, and a bit on the walls and ceiling. If you dampen the whole room, floor and all, you're going to get a very dead sound - which some people really like for recording but I personally do not.  A tall ceiling is most important for the extra sonic space your cymbals will fill up. If the ceiling is too low, your overheads are going to get a lot of bleed back. It would also be good to have a ceiling high enough to adjust your cymbals a fair distance away from your toms,(maybe like 1.5-2 feet) and then also have room to move your overheads up a little higher(probably a 1-2 feet as well).

        My room personally has this specially made foam that looks really rad for some wall dampening, and all corners for a bass trap. We also hung probably 3 or 4 blankets across the ceiling as well. It has a somewhat lower ceiling, but those blankets have saved us from too much bleed back.
