When playing live, I use Sennheiser e904s on toms and SM57 on snare. The e904s are the metal version of the e604s.
I use the K&M 24030 microphone holders for both e904/SM57 and I leave the mics...

As far as rock drummers go, one of my personal favorites is Pat Torpey, may he rest in peace. When he was in his prime he had monster technique and chops but used them tastefully ...
Kit looks great MDK!
I've been using the EC2 clear tom batters on my 12/14/22 CM kit and they sound great but when I decide to change them out, I believe that I am going to try the coated heads as...
Rock gig this past weekend ...

I've done it with the whole band, just the rhythm section, just drums and bass, and just drums. But like Ricardo said the producer/engineer will usually keep only the drums for each and then build...
I believe this to be the trick to getting them to last as long as possible ...
Being they're hand hammered, might I suggest to try before you buy if you can manage it. I picked mine out of four or five and while they all sounded somewhat similar, each had its nuances ...
Glad things are looking up for you ...
That's the one that I use. Sounds just like an HHX Ozone but has the EFX pattern. I paid around $100 for mine too ...
Thanks! I've been using SM94's for many years now. They work fine live but I plan to upgrade to the 81's ...
Yeah, unfortunately it's true.
I must have woke up on the right side of the bed or something the day I got my 18" Wuhan holy trash cymbal because it's survived several hundred gigs without a crack...
Your Meinl HCS is definitely a keeper ...
Nice! How do you like those 81s?
I agree completely and your statement is consistent with what I've heard the drum shop guys talk about. Main reason why I went cheap but I know that it's just a matter of time before it starts...
In general, yes they are more susceptible to breaks but I believe that it depends on the hole pattern and how you hit them. I read somewhere that the Sabian Ozone pattern breaks about 50% more than...
These days I prefer thin holy trash cymbals (e.g. ozones) but I will admit that chinas can be more useful for some musical styles.
I used china cymbals for years, many different ones, and I found...
Congrats!
I have one that is pretty close to your ordered configuration. Mine is a 2003 16x22, 9x12, 13x15 natural maple with a matching 5x14 snare. They sound great, especially the kick and...
I sent my shells off to have the bearing edges shaped. I retained the standard Ludwig 45 degree inner edge and went with a slight 45 degree round over counter cut, just enough to take the edge off...
I'd like to add that I've been playing Ludwig drums exclusively since 1977 and have been playing the Ludwig Classic Maple drums since 2003. My current configuration is 8x12, 14x14, and 22x14 which...
According to history, Ringo used two Ludwig Downbeat (8x12, 14x14, 14x20) and two Super Classic (9x13, 16x16, 14x22) kits all in the Oyster Black Pearl wrap finish during his early years with the...
If you're interested in a modern made Ludwig kit based upon the vintage 3-ply maple/poplar/maple shell with maple re-rings and vintage
style edges you might want to check out the Ludwig Legacy...
1988 Ludwig Super Classic 4-ply maple/poplar/maple in natural finish, (2) 14x22, 8x8, 9x10, 10x12, 14x14 ...
Very nice kit! My first Ludwig kit was a '78 Quadra Plus outfit in this same finish with a 402 Super Sensitive.
Nice setup, great photos, and beautiful weather to boot. Your Harley dealership looks a lot like ours and the bikes are just as super gorgeous.
Can't wait to watch the videos!
Nice kit and congrats on the Harley gig!
We played our local Harley dealership about a month ago for a sales promo day. Bikes on display everywhere and bikers could come in and get their ride...
