Please do, because even with the rough recording there is something pretty incredible going on there. I have a feeling those won't get lost in a mix either...
Alright, here's a really *bad* recording of me warming up the other night, after getting the kit setup in its current order. This isn't meant to be any type of structured solo that makes any sense...it's just discordant noise while puttering around the kit.
I'm using VF Akira Jimbo sig. sticks which I've decided I don't like. They're very top-heavy so all of this playing is sloppier than my usual stuff. I'll post more when I get the drums tuned better and get comfortable w/ a 5-pc. setup.
I wish I had more recordings of the kick...it's the only drum I'm really happy with my tuning on, so far.
One option since you like to play off the left side of the drums may be to move one of the cymbals off of the stand to a boom stand and place your ten inch there.This would move the cymbal higher the other option would be to relocate the 12 to the other side in a standard setup; but my guess is that you like to play off the 12 more and would rather have it above the snare. wacha think
It's hard to tell how much room you have by the pictures, but I was suggesting to relocate the two cymbals to a seperate boom stand and place the 10" where the splash and crash are, between the 12" and the hats. This would leave room for the splash or crash between the 10 and 12 albeit higher. I have this seen this set up before and works for some. If there is not enough room between the 12 and hats, you might consider above and right of the hats ( this is where I have my 8" &10") either case would require some movement of your cymbal set up which you may not be willing to do. Hope this helps
Very cool clips. Your timekeeping on the hats through all three clips is click track like in its steadiness.
I will tell you that I have permanently ended all desire for ply drums. The next drumset I buy will be Unix. It may be a couple of decades from now, ya never know. These clips have been quite the inspiration. Good work.
Thanks much! I know I've found the drums I was looking for...I don't see how anything else would do, now.
Sounds amazing man, makes my ears horny lol
hey zambizzi, just listened to 'noisything' mp3 - these drums sound even better than they look - a warm, deep and rich sound, some incredible drums you have there and the Sabians sounded great, are these the HHX's and Vault's you just picked up?
truly wonderful drums you - enjoy!
why the AAX hats, not enough volume from the darker Jojo's? or did you just not get the desired sound from them? i'm just curios, always curios...
and a new snare you say? hmmm... interesting : )
It looks like I had to go Canadian for the sound I wanted!
I bit the bullet and bought another DW 9900 tom stand for the second tom, here are some shots. You'll be able to see how little space there is on the left for anything because of where I like my hats.
I think I'll get two more dogbones to mount the crash and china on the right, like I've done w/ the two cymbals on the left.
