Ok guys and ladies I have given out a ton of advise on this forum. Now I am going to pose a question to you about something I have been struggling with for a while. I for a very long time have mounted my toms off my bass drum. If you have seen my video's you will see I always have my toms 8--10--14--16 and I always use a 13" snare. I like my drums punching and tight to me. Well I do own 6 kits and yes I use them all. On some of the kits the 8 will not tune down low enough simply because each kit is different. So I don't feel I am getting enough depth out of my kit. So I have been toying with the idea of going back to having a 10 as my first rack and dumping the 8. So I would have the traditional 10-12 rack combo. When I just replace the 8 with the 10 of my current set up in short it just screws everything up. Its amazing what just a couple inches can do to your set up. I am thinking that if I mount my toms off stands that I will have way more versatility with my set up than mounting them off the bass drum. Your thoughts.
