We all do sometimes and this gives the threads a bit of flavor, there's nothing wrong with that. None of the people who responded to this thread is the person to whom I was initially referring.
...

Since I've been on Drum Chat, just lately I've been experiencing a lot of threads that seem to have little if any value to the topics that are addressed and basically from one person. This happens on...

The Pearl Masterworks series are the best of the best in the Pearl line. You can go custom from the type of woods to the bearing edges to the color of the drums themselves. If you think it's a great...

When I was looking for cymbals to outfit my vintage Pearl kit, the Sabian AA 21" Raw Bell Dry ride was the first cymbal I picked. Part of the reason was that I love the sound of my HH 21" Raw Bell...

I'll be sticking around for a while unless you guys give me the boot for taking up too much bandwidth with my responses. :icon_lol:

Thanks,

As we sat at the pizza shop having supper, I forgot to mention another option. If you wanted to use your current mixer and it's 4 microphone inputs, you could get another inexpensive mixer that has...

It's very possible to use external mic preamps to interface between his dynamic microphones and the mixer line inputs. He would need four individual preamps or two stereo or dual channel preamps to...

Best of luck Fredr. I hope you got your drums sounding fantastic, knock em' dead.

According to the specs, the line input (1/4") sensitivity is only -40 DB and the output of your mics are -76 DB. This will cause for a very low signal into the line input of your mixer. Were talking...

Thanks CharlyG, but i'm just trying to fill in some info between projects over here. Your doing fine!

Thanks,

It seems as if you can go XLR to XLR, this is the best bet for a lower noise floor into your mixer. The 1/4" stereo inputs would probably only have an input level somewhere between -10 to -30...

They will work fine going from balanced XLR to unbalanced phone plug into your mixer. Pin #2, or hot or + or whatever you want to call it of the XLR goes straight through to the tip of the 1/4" plug....

Sometimes shipping services can take you from the height of anxiety to that of punch in the gut, I couldn't think of any other analogy, but you know what I mean. This happened to me several time with...

Although you can use just about any head anywhere, with questionable results, if your Aquarian heads are single ply, I would just switch tops with the bottoms and give that a try. Use the coated as...

A lot of the sound originates from the type (wood or metal), size, heads and tuning.

I use Evans Power Center Reverse Dot heads on my maple and bubinga snares and an EC batter head for my...

First of all welcome to the forum!

Secondly at my age I having a very difficult time reading your shorthand, lol. Are you in the States? Maybe someone here can find you what you need, but I'm...

I have absolutely no experience with Yamaha Recording Customs, although I know they are made from 6 ply birch shells on the toms and triple flange hoops. The bass drum is a 7 ply birch shell.

I do...

Thank you for the compliments. The thing with me and reel to reels is from a very early age, probably 5 or 6 years old, I got my first reel to reel. I worked a lot of jobs through the years. Besides...

Thanks, but they weren't passed down. I bought them new in the mid sixties by working at my dad grocery store. I made $1 for every three hours of time I put in, (I know child labor). I started...

Very nice looking kit! If you like the sound, just scale it back a bit. Let the small rack tom and one of the larger rack/floor toms home. If you don't use your second snare, that's another you can...

Drums are drums, when you have the heads installed and tuned the way you like to hear them, there's not much more you can do. With cymbals you can obtain a variety of different sounds and voices as...

Your best bet is to measure the distance center to center of the mounting screws on your throw off. Most are vertical but I have seen horizontal line ups. There are generic throw offs that might...

I got very lucky when I met Wanda 29 years ago. She loves drums almost as much as I do. Don't tell her but she is a much better double bass player than I am. :biggrin:

I have four or five different thrones and the most comfortable is my Roc N Soc. When you buy a throne make sure it is either hydraulic or worm screw adjusted with a lock. Most of the clutch type with...
