To stop sound you need thick and dense things along with dead space (trapped air). Look up 'mass loaded vinyl' on Google and you'll find websites that can describe the material and cost.... but its...

Try the K cus hybrid 20 or 21 and Sabian's HH raw bell - great rides!

I really like the 19 KCH China, 21 ride, and 19 crash, I think those 3 sound the best. Haven't tried the hats yet but am looking forward to it, I've heard they sound nice too.

Imo the AC 17 crash...

I'm guessing that was a spelling error, but I lol'd considering the subject that was being discussed....

TS, as others have said, use painters tape. It won't pull off logos. Zildjian cymbal...

Hi pastor, I think it depends on a few things. Like how long you will be in the house, how often you will play down there, and if noise control is important. And as others have said, if you have...

Lol...

I've been told that tapping your heels on the ground while keeping the balls of your feet down is a good exercise for double bass players.

Yeah I got the feel down by counting slower (2&4) when I tried playing reggae for the first time. But I just put some reggae on Pandora and after reading this thread and watching the vids, I counted...

Thx for the explanation!

Thank you so much for that post. I was really confused when I watched Dumble's vid cause they were counting different. I didn't learn reggae by lesson, just by listening and counting and I always...

Welcome everyone. I want to play like her, she's great. Thx for posting.

Thx for posting that. Very cool. Drum hero would be sweet. I didn't see his feet moving... the auto-music writing looks like a pretty handy tool.

Cool pics! Make sure to grab the drum stick, not the samurai sword....

This thread is awesome.... I have so many questions after reading through it! But alas, not enough time for that....



Ok, I'll go:

^^ Curious.... what is an example of 'good' in your book? (no sarcasm or anything negative) If you could post a video for comparison, that would be cool.

Fun read! and welcome. Hope you find the set you're looking for!

3rd Lesson:

To begin, we did not discuss any of the prior homework. In my head I was like, 'come on man, I practiced this week!' :) Instead, we discussed reading music and proper notation.

Yes, I don't have one yet! Thank you for the advice; I have been wanting to get one, but there are so many! I don't know which to get. I only know some can do a lot of different things, and some...

Paiste's 802 18" china sounds just like the Zild 19" K cust dark for like 1/3 the price. While pricey, the K cust hybrid 19" is the bomb imo.

Where do you get those? What brand are they?

Thx Ludwig.

jafo that's awesome. Becoming as fast as my teacher doesn't seem real or possible at this point. But I see what you mean about practice. For the first time in my life I've actually...

lol - great quote, lol..... all of us at DC should pool our resources and create a new brand of ear plugs that do just that! :dancing:

5A's are perfect for my paws.

Cool Randy! Keep us updated....

Thx for the tips Jafo, I need all the encouragement I can get! It's weird showing up for lessons, considering my last memory of music lessons were from when I was a kid. That and everyone else...
