    Re: You don't need a high end kit...

    Then quit reading the damn thing and go play your drums. Stop *****ing about something that no one is forcing you to read. Grow up already- your self-righteousness has already bored me long ago. I...

    Re: You don't need a high end kit...

    Yep, the saturns and renown are great for stealing your way into high end sound. DEFINITELY not boutique prices. I was within a fraction of a MM buying a renown maple (since they chopped the price...

    The thread can be 1,000 posts long just so long as knowledge is shared, it stays civil and entertaining.

    It is, however a good idea to make some kind of...

    Re: Another head question

    G1's are pretty universal and easier to tune than G2 or. Ec2. That is also why I went power centers.

    Re: Another head question

    Moongel!

    Sincerely though, EC2 are not the be-all and end all for the studio. It's pretty good, but friends sometimes go conventional and use g2 coated for the studio. The ec2 may sound too...

    Re: Another head question

    I have to tune it at least to the middle to de-warble them (16/18). I cannot say that the ec2 is optimum for my FT's. I am getting some power centers soon.

    Re: Another head question

    Large toms: 13-18" Ec2/sst over genera reso. genera resos are listed by evans as "the warmest reso with most sustain" that they have. The ec2 control the larger toms to a degree, but so does...

    Re: Which would you choose?

    I go by application.

    Artwood- my favorite all-around, better for classic rock and country than the yamaha.

    Musashi- higher pitch, more focus, great for a main or second snare. It grabs that...
  10. Re: Yamaha Maple Custom Absolute Nouveau - VIDEO!

    For $199- a godsend!

    Now all you need is that and a computer. Wasn't that long ago that you had to get a mic set and a mixer with some kind of a/d conversion -and- a camera just to avoid that...
  11. Re: Yamaha Maple Custom Absolute Nouveau - VIDEO!

    Q: is the audio only from the zoom Q3? If so, VERY impressive for a small device!!!

    And nice playing/kit. I like the dry/tribal/earthy sound of fiberskyns.

    Re: You don't need a high end kit...

    Good post Death drum!

    I think something got a little misconstrued (as happens in thread like this)

    I was around in the 70's when the drums I referred to were new, so I was aware they were mixed...

    Re: Gibraltar Stealth Rack impressions

    It is a nice concept because as much as I like the pearl curved rack, it's visually obtrusive to me. I like more shell than a hardware forest.

    Re: Medicine Man Drums

    MM drums are a Keller custom house. They may do a good job, but because they are not a national "name" the resale value is nothing. Spending $1,000 on a name kit guarantees you can re-sell it down...

    Re: Calling all Evans fans...

    I prefer g2 clears -because- they have depth, attack -and- I can always add moongel. I do use ec2/sst on large toms.

    Re: i feel like its too late

    He is such a fusion ace! One of the best drummer on the planet. He stands with Simon Phillips, Billy Cobham and other pro drummers that car tear it up on a huge kit.

    Oh yeah. In the 1970's there were a cornucopia of bad hardware. The only "solid" stuff was Rogers memriloc, Tama titan and Sonor. I had a set of luddies that you had to change...

    Re: Pearl or Yamaha

    I think that maple does have more midrange. Birch has more focus and cut. It's good to know that SC can stand up and compare, that does lend credence to the other topic I brought up about high...

    Re: Pearl or Yamaha

    1. Where would you place Sc's in terms of sound? Do they (IYO) compete with high end drums?

    2. I have direct-mount lugs on my shell. For 9mm shells, RIMS suspension mounts have negligible...

    I hear a distinct difference between my 9mm birch shells, and DW or tama starclassic. None I judge better, but I say that thicker shells project better and thinner shells have a fatter sound.

    Yammie stuff is great, but all the (6) dealer I have talked to have said the same thing. Yamaha dropped the ball on me delivering a snare. An "in stock" Akira Jimbo took 8 weeks to get to me. No...
