I love the pots lol, how's it feel recording an acoustic set with a triggered kick?

It's not too bad with headphones on. It took a little getting used to in rehearsal, especially when the wedge was far from me. Kinda disorientating lol. Not having an acoustic kick has so many advantages. As for the pots, good for late night boiled eggs and tea hehe.

Very interesting setup middleman. What style of music are you recording with that setup?

[NoiseInMotion]

Wow, that's a pretty interesting setup. I almost didn't notice the e-kick at first lol. What's that curved metal thing over the cymbal on your right side?

[Screwy]

I especially like the dog choke collar on the ride.

I think that's a cymbal rattler...

The style that we play is Cacophonic Rock. A style that we invented and are inventing as we go lol.

[Spazz]

a drum solo would be cool lol

That "metal thing" is sheet metal that makes an interesting sound when I hit it, and my propeller and means of escape when I need it ;-)

Cool pics MM and best of luck with the recordings.

[Bish]

Man, those sounded great!!!

[late8]

Very cool!

[AlexGoodwin]

That is an awesome setup man! I love anything unique and that certainly is! :D

[defcon235]

Lol I didn't see the kick trigger at first, and it completely threw me off, but very cool setup!

A very good idea, you never know when the groupies will bum rush you....

[dave0549jv]

[middleman]

Man, those sounded great!!!

Wha? Huh?

[Skimp241]

Interesting MM can't wait for a sound sample.Good luck in your recording endeavors.

[Bish]

Wha? Huh?

Oh you caught that, huh?

I was hoping for some audio.

I have some rough unmixed/unmastered tracks that my singer/guitarist would KILL me if I let folks listen to lol. We hope to be completely done in a month or so. We're laying down vocals on Wednesday. We're still waiting for his keyboard to come in too. It's a crazy one, it's circuit bent...a cheap Casio keyboard. I want to put my shofar on there too but haven't bought it yet. Hoping for a least a 36 incher. Some loose ends yet to tie.
