John Stanier’s set up was more insightful than I initially gave credit… and I’ve just had some better gigs with the idea behind it…

Sure this is an extreme example but from what I understand there was an intent to make something harder to play so that it was a more deliberate choice and therefore ideally a more musical choice.

Its helped.

You could say probably the same for Kenny Aronoff and his 10” tom placement.

So I do love a splash cymbal. They’ve always been on my kit. The thing is.. they become almost like a tick for me. They lose their value cause I get to hit a thing that doesn’t intrude like a crash so I hit them too much.

And cause of their size you can position them in the most easy to reach place.

Well I wanted to down size hardware and so inverting them and putting them on top of crashes has put them a bit more out of reach. There is far more intent to reach for them an play them.. damn it, it really works….

This of course isn’t as dramatic, but the idea is worth checking out…

You got a thing you know you overplay? Put it a bit more out of reach.

Okay this is kind of a lie. I havent got the kit yet. But this is the one i want for many reasons and ive decided on it

Its the millennium 1500 Hybrid-X e kit. With a 22 by 16 bass drum...

My bedroom is in the loft/attic and the my hatch isnt even 20 inches its like just short of it.

Is there anyone who has had to fit a drum where it csnt fit if so how.

Cos idk what to do here cos ive been saving for this kit and my heart has just broke when ive noticed this.

I would so take apart the hatch and widen it but I think my mum and dad would rip my head off.

How flexible is wood and how much can it bend before breaking 🤔

Only good thing is 2 inches has never seemed bigger. 2 inches can make a BIG different

has anyone tried to put a tambourine on a drum bass mount instead of a cowbell? does it ring when hitting the bass drum or is it fine? cause it’s a very comfortable position, but i’m worried it would ring at every bass drum hit

nothing here. just a question

hey so me and my drummer saves $200 for drums and ended up getting fendercaster drums with no cymbals, pedals or seat for $200 the old man we bought from definitely scamed us but wtv.
any recommendations for the cymbals we already knkw we are getting a double peddle so.
thanks for reading also we are band plays metal and hardcore.

The pictures look legit and the price feels like a great deal. It's still a hefty price...but I'm really thinking about going for it. Is this actually a good deal? Is there anything I should be worried about with FB marketplace cymbals / purchasing K Constantinople Mediums online?

The weight is 2686g

As you can see, Im playing the ankle technique and the movement feels much more natural now,but I still cant hit the drum head all the time. Whats the fix?

Edit: The technique looks goofy-twitchy bc I had to bend down to get it in the video. Its not perfect,but much better than seems

Hello, anyone here records/recorded with their Alesis Nitro Mesh kit, preferably on windows? I currently record using focusrite scarlett solo and it's not satisfactory.

Is this deal worth it at all?

$650 I don’t know much about dw I know they’re generally expensive but these seem a little rough. I think the badge says they’re all maple and he said small sizes so I’m guessing 18 inch kick.

Hi guys, i want to buy some cymbals for metal, let’s say a 14” hihat, 17,18” crashes and a 20” ride, i already have a china, what would you suggest, i was thinking maybe mainl classic dark cymbal set?

I have a double kick pedal, and the back portion of the beater hub connected to my slave pedal just snapped off, however I have 4 single kick pedals laying around. Would I be able to take the beater hub of one of these pedals and replace the one on the double kick to make sort of a frankenstein pedal, so that I don’t have to buy a part replacement or a new pedal?

Hello guys i want to buy my first kit and i need help i have 500 dollars

come a little closer #reels #fyp #drums #drumcover #cagetheelephant

My old Pipe band snare tutor (RIP Billy Stevenson) gave me these drumsticks about 10 years ago.

He wasn't sure how old they were, or even where he originally got them from.

The sticks feel like thornwood but I can't be certain. They vibrate a lot when used on a drum pad. Super steep taper along the whole stick. The base is at least 25mm diameter (I can measure if it helps). I don't really want to try them on a drum (especially a pipe band snare) since I don't want to risk them breaking.

If anyone has any theories I would love to hear them.

Thanks everyone. Keep on drumming!

It's definitely paint, not wrap. Another photo shows some scrapes in the finish. Also, does look like a 24" kick to you? The toms look like 13, 16.

I've wanted to drum my entire life as a 30yo. Finally two months in and i'm wondering if someone could give me some pointers in advancement.

I'm using stick control + a pad whenever I can to get better with sticking. I'm finding songs I like on Youtube and looking for sheet music/ just trying to play along. For ear I'm trying to play with rap music to work on my own creativity.

Overall I think it's going very well. I'd like to say I sound like I'm drumming which is neat. What advice would you offer and are lessons a huge upgrade? My plan is to get lessons after a year of self teachings.

Working for guitarist Andrew Lilley today!

1st commissioned custom snare build for my drum mentor Foz. He dubbed it “Frankensnare“ fitting for the fact that I robbed pieces from my snare graveyard.

Just trying to add a little rhythm to sanitation.
