what snare are you getting bro? hmm.gif smile.gif

btw regarding your last post,i think it all goes down to how much one can apply on a real kit with minimum practice equipment.some may be able to practice with only pads and with the combination of imagination,creativity and coordination they can spread what they learnt on pads onto a kit.that's not my case,because i think i'm more of that by-heart muscle-memory type of drummer.so from what i've experienced, i think one can never go wrong with a real kit...or an e-kit at least if the environment one is living in doesn't allow one to have a real kit.

you're talking about Chris Adler of LOG right? don't get me wrong,he's my favourite drummer hands down but i think he can be more than that if he started earlier.what i'm trying to say is instead of being godlike,he can be like (godlike)³.one example is our own Arthur Kam..godlike in the making. smile.gif

Was saving up for a Battlefield 6 x 14, till my phone crashed and I had to get another one, then my power amp for my guitar-ing (which, incidentally, though I find myself more of a drummer, I tend to gig more on guitar) started to have some problems, so I'll have to save up for that and another cabinet to run. :/

hopefully, next year. biggrin.gif HAHAHAHA!


I see. I can relate to that, because that's what happened to me. I guess listening to a wide variety of music helps you as well, in the sense that even if technically you may not be as proficient, different influences can make you a drummer with a lot of range.

Yes, of course, they sky is the limit when it comes to instruments, but he definitely has made a lot of progress, with his age.

mesh all the way.

seriously no wonder some of u guys hate bentley so much.

first i ordered up a vision vsx tom 16x16 inch. after 6 months, they say they salah order, instead of 16x16, they ordered up an 18x16. so i ask them "eh? 18x16? so 18 inch diameter tom lah ni?"

and they say, nono, its still in 16, cuma US put length 1st then diameter. ohh so i thought, it is still 16x18, instead of 18x16.

but when the thing arrived at my local music shop, !@#$^%^$%, the supposedly 16 inch floor tom was an 18 inch! mak oi punya besar! so i was right! it is 18x16! 18 diameter and 16 length! not the other way around.

guys, can a 18 inch floor tom sounds like 16 inch floor tom? i mean when doing the tuning, cuz i dont wanna wait another 6 months just to change the size sad.gif

oh and screw u bentley. screw u.

not sure about that...never used an 18 inch before,but theoretically i think you can tune it like a 16 but it has to be tighter la on an 18 if you want to make it sound like a 16...if im not mistaken la....hehehe

bro ko org sabah ka? di kk ada suda ka music shop yg dedicated utk drum jak? sbab sy tgk mcm teda jak music shop yg dedicated utk drum d area kk ni...

Now you see wink.gif Well, yes it can. I've used two 18s (or was it two 16s? :/) as my floor toms simultaneously, and using different heads, and different tunings, you definitely can!

Hmm.. You'll have to consider a lot of factors. For some reason, in Malaysia, "exclusive" distributorship is a big thing.

But first:

There is no doubt that there is demand nowadays, for a "drum" shop, but whether it'll do well, remains to be seen.

You'll probably need the big brands, for the cymbals, which means getting a dealership (which costs a lot) from places like Yamaha (Sabian) and Bentley (Zildjian) and so on, so forth. I don't think smaller brands like UFIP or TRX and even Istanbul or Soultone would do too well at first, perhaps you could bring it in later on.

Drumset brands are also mostly taken up by "exclusive" distributors as well. So, you might want to look into opening up your shop for used sets as well.

Unless, you want to make this shop an exclusive shop, that caters to pros only? But then you wouldn't probably do too well.

I would love to see Battlefield, SJC, UFIP, Brady, Axis and Trick on Malaysian soil someday smile.gif

5p3ak - u think so ez ah double bass. haha. to accomodate the extra bass drum would need a big room. a BIG one.

and u need to tune it to a same pitch.

and u need to buy two single pedals.

and the neighbour will become crazier than ever with the double bass noise.

fuu might just use the money to buy more hardwares.

and btw how Trick is supposed to be overprice in US, since they were made there?

Not this year biggrin.gif HAHAHAHA! Last year got, this year too busy :/


Anyway, I set up and tuned drums for one of my clients today (my school tongue.gif).

Basically, they ordered two sets of the Ludwig Element kit with Evans heads, and I threw in some cymbals and Gibraltar hardware, cause it was quite a big order, with a lot of other audio equipment including amps and mics, etc.

So, I set up one of the kits today, and mixed it in with the previous set (Pearl Forum sad.gif )

And now the entire kit goes like this. Its not the best stuff, but for a school, I have to admit its already pretty okay lah. FOR A SCHOOL. xD

Cymbals: Stagg EXK 14' hi hats, Pearl 14' hi-hats (side hats biggrin.gif ), Stagg EXK 20' ride , Pearl 18' crash ride, Meinl HCS 12' china, Stagg EXK 16' crash, Meinl HCS 16' crash.

Drums (from left to right): Pearl Forum 16' floor, Pearl Forum 14 x 6.5 steel snare, Ludwig Element 14 x 6.5 snare, Element 10' tom, Element 12' tom, Element 22' bass drum, Element 13' floor tom, Element 16' floor tom.

The Element toms are outfitted with Evans Hydraulics (its durable, will last long, and super easy to tune, making crap drums sound decent biggrin.gif), the bass drum has a coated EMAD (again, very durable, and doesn't ring, with a consistent, if not dynamic tone - perfect for hard rock and metal, actually), and the snare has a Power Centre Reverse Dot, coated (which when matched with a relatively deep snare like this, gives a very fat sound).

Pictures soon, maybe. HEHEHEHE.

No way bro. Not at all. Hydraulics for toms, yes, not for your snare. AT ALL. xD
Try Onyx, if you want a dark sound, perhaps? Double ply.

Anyway, have you tried putting rings on your head for the overtones? And get ProSound snare wires, or something tight?

Added on December 31, 2011, 4:30 pmSorry for the horrible handphone pictures, but yeah. This is the school kit that I was talking about a few posts earlier that I set up yesterday. Playing at my school next year is going to be a blast! biggrin.gif

it measure the tension of the drum skin, u actually achieve similar result like listening to the skin when you tune each of the lugs

you doesn't need it if you can tune/listen very fast and accurate. Same like some ppl use tuner to tune guitar while some can just strum and tune~

I used the tama tension watch but I believe it is same with drum dial

i think there's not much difference between learning yourself and getting a teacher...everything is online nowadays right?internet is like one big university ody lorrr....just that you gotta have self discipline la cuz there's no one to instruct you to do this and that.no rigid syllabus.but yea..having a teacher quite nice oso.got org to marah2 you and tell you wrong things you did.hehehe.jst my 2 cents..

btw,personally i prefer DIY.smile.gif

Because it is easier to reach to the rack toms and you can position the rack toms to a more comfortable angle. I.e. rack toms mounted on a stand will let you put the rack toms wherever you want them to be, and IMO it also does clean up the looks of the kit. rclxms.gif

Because it is easier to reach to the rack toms and you can position the rack toms to a more comfortable angle. I.e. rack toms mounted on a stand will let you put the rack toms wherever you want them to be, and IMO it also does clean up the looks of the kit.  rclxms.gif

I pity you mate :/ I usually don't buy or deal for music schools cause of that very reason.



Anyway guys, I'm thinking of selling my Ludwig Epic; used for only one recording session, and its been stored away (except for the bass drum, that I pull out once in a while for gigs) ever since.

If anyone is interested, let me know.
I'll need to find out the price of the drums I want to get before deciding. biggrin.gif

But I might be moving back to my old place and converting my room into a semi-studio, but I'll only have space for a small kit, so either ways I think I ought to sell this baby off lah.


So, here goes. Ludwig Epic (can configure to be three rack toms and one floor tom or two rack toms and two floor toms) Natural Blackburst Lacquer finish.
I'm putting this up for you guys first x) HAHAHAHA!

and has anyone shipped in a kit from the US before? Snare drums, yes, but this time, I wanna get a kit. xD Shipping prices, anyone? For a 20' bass kick.

Pearl Vision is pretty okay lah. If I'm not mistaken, the latest retail price is around RM3.5k.
Ludwig Classic Maple on the other hand is pretty darn expensive. tongue.gif HAHAHAHA!

About US2k+ for a kit? After the conversion, shipping, taxes its pretty high.

AND HOW COULD YOU SAY THAT! tongue.gif HAHAHAHA!
You've got a very happy Sabian guy right here. I've been using Sabian for pretty much my whole drumming life, and I'm extremely happy. Sure, I've come across other cymbals that are pretty good by other brands, but overall, up till now, Sabian has been perfect for my style.

The SBR is the lowest range Sabian at the moment. Try out some AAXs and HHXs and maybe you'll change your mind? biggrin.gif

I'm selling my Ludwig Epic for RM3000, its a midrange kit, and is one of the best you can get for the price. I only used mine for one recording session and it has been stored away since. It comes with 4 toms as well! But no snare, however. I could throw in a snare for a few hundred bucks more, though.

It is something like the picture above, but without a snare, and one of the floor toms is suspended, instead of having legs. Sexy kan?

The thing about this kit is that, there is, firstly, an awesome finish, secondly, you can move the toms around. You can have 3 rack toms and one floor tom, two floor toms and two rack toms, or one rack tom and three floor toms, all are possible. biggrin.gif

YES! ZBTs are really horrible. I honestly don't like them. I would go for the RM1100 one, mate. But it would honestly be awesome if you'd save up a bit more and get at least a midrange set, like the XS20. Or even save up more and get a full pro-level cymbal set like jenglot's one.

My favourite setup that I've played on is four rack (8, 10, 12, 13), two down (16,18) and one more floor (16 on my left) with two snares (one 14 x 5.5 and one 13 x 3), three crashes in front (16,16,16), two rides on the right (20,22), one china/crash stack (14, I think), one 18' crash on my right, one 20' china next to the crash, and one pair of x-hats.

Gigantic Tama Superstar kit with Sabians biggrin.gif HAHAHAHA! That was a blast to play on; was a two night thing only though.

And the MCS RM340.



By the way, does anyone have/plans to order a copy of Gary Chester's The New Breed? It's one of the best books out there for drummers, and I'm planning on ordering a copy from Amazon. Anyone wanna bulk with me?

usually i dont.i prefer to muffle externally cuz its more flexible.you may or may not need muffling depending on the musical application.but some do put internal muffling inside the snare drum though...but 1 thing bout that is,if its not built-in,you may need to drill holes on your shell for that internal muffler to be attached.


btw do any 1 of you guys know which shop in malaysia that carries Wuhan?

Hey guys,

Just wondering where do you guys drum? I mean if it's at home how much of a nuisance is it to your neighbours? Since most of us live in terrace houses that share a wall, I am wondering how best to manage the sound.

Thoughts?


Thanks.

Precisely why I drum outside. But I'll be starting a studio in my condominium soon, so... yeah. But I guess afternoons should be fine. Just let your neighbours know that you'll be practicing for a while, and buy them some cookies, and it ought to be fine biggrin.gif

Haha, you must have very very patient neighbours.

I am actually planning to place my drums into a spare room in my house, and just sticking some sound isolation foam on the walls and seal up whatever holes or cracks where the sound waves can travel, hopefully will be good enough la.

I agree to a certain extent re jamming outside, but still, i feel nothing beats banging the crap out of your own setup at home. smile.gif

oh need drum mat ? or any carpet can ?

I have shure drum mic kit (pg52, pg56 (2x) , pg81 (2x)). the overheads and cymbals are supposed to use Shure PG81. but I have audio technica AT2020 condenser which is quite awesome. and an SM57, which is supposed to be good for snares. so 8 mics total. I haven't experimented yet. I'm really a beginner trying to learn smile.gif

any tips?

The use of Drum mat is to prevent the kick drum aka bass drum from "creeping" forward then you're drumming...imagine u play halfway need push back the bass drum laugh.gif

Ahh, I see.

Yes, even small changes here and there, like the direction you position your mics, or even two or three inches closer or farther, will result in a drastic sound change. So yeah biggrin.gif

Hi guys~, imma new here, got 3-4 years of drumming experience. Although i stopped my drum music lessons, but i still play it casually or even improvise/learn myself. Haven't got my own drum set since parents dosent allow me, but not anymore, so wanna ask, since i don't have any experience for picking drum sets, how to choose a apropriate drum set? E.g The size for snare/cymbals/toms, the brands etc.? thanks in advance tongue.gif

i never own a drumset before as well bro, but if you ask me i would say it all depends on your situation and your personal preference. say,if you wanna pick between a cheap beginner set or high end pro set,it depends on what you wanna do with it. if for practice,cheap set is more suitable provided that you are a non-gigging/recording drummer, cuz you aren't gonna record the thing/take it to some gigs which at most time requires good sounding drums (high-end set).as for size of drums,it all depends on what kind of sound that you like.

I currently have a kit that has 2 layers of birch with maple in between smile.gif

Between the two of them though, I love the sound of birch when it comes to rock, and maple when I'm playing lighter music. However, that's just MY preference. Everyone has their own taste biggrin.gif

Favourite wood so far = Oak. xxD

Sup drummers biggrin.gif Wanna get some opinions on drumsets. I am planning to get a new drum set. Budjet around 3-4K with throne and cymbals.

Been eying on the Ludwig Epic Series for quite sometime now but not so sure if Bentley have them. Also looking on the Tama Silverstar and Pearl Vision.

It would be great if you guys could help me around. I don't want quite a beginner set. Would be great if can get 6pc like the Ludwig Epic.

Just called Bentley music, he is giving me Ludwig epic for rm4800 around there. The good thing about this drum is that birch and maple woods are used. Price wise should be okay I guess.

I'm not adding any cymbals in mate! xD The kit came for 4+ without cymbals. Just hardware. :/ I could add cymbals for very low prices though.
The condition is pretty good, I guess. I used it for just one recording session, then its been in a box ever since.

Nah, I want everything including the standard snare blush.gif I've tested the ZHT cymbals before and I felt that it is okay for the price which Bentley is giving a 50% off.

Apart from the ZHT, I can't think of anything within the price range. Prefer Zildjian cymbals laugh.gif

The reason why is because the xs2 are off my budget. Besides, I am more towards a zildjian fan rather than sabian. Bentley is throwing in 50% off for zhts and that's a good deal for me IMO.

I'm really getting annoyed with our local music stores. The stuff that they don't generally bring in all the time, they're lazy to go and find out the cost.

Don't read the below text if you don't want to read a wall of rant.

» Click to show Spoiler - click again to hide... «


Anyway, to me it seems as though our local shops really aren't very interested in going through the hassle of bringing in a special high-end kit or the like, even for a special order. Really, in Malaysia, when was the last time you saw a Pearl Reference, Tama Starclassic, Yamaha Recording Custom, Mapex Orion, Ludwig Classic Maple, DW Professional kit being displayed in a store for sale?

Even when I sell kits, I generally tend to focus on the low-midrange market, because that is all that our friends here have in stock most of the time. Everything else, 6 months or longer wait. Is this the reason why we don't really have nice gear around Msia?

I think most of the shops we have here nowadays don't know the real meaning of the word: service.

Seems like Bentley fcuked me up. Yesterday I called and confirm they said that they are offering me the ZHT pro. Just now I call and ask about some other stuff and to confirm my kit, they said they are giving me the zxt rock set.

I was like whuutt. Broke my heart man. But they said to give me the ZHT pro including the kit for a slight higher price. Dissapointed for that. But I guess even with the zxt rock set, it seems A pretty good deal.

I ordered a kit from them last time with two FLOOR toms and instead they gave me one floor tom and one mounted rack tom. 6 months to replace order, I just took this one lah.

Hmm.. Singaporean service is also much better. With some of my guitar gear (for myself and customers), I sometimes go down to Singapore and grab the gear, even if it's around the same price as it ought to be in Malaysia cause of service, faster response, etc.

But I can agree that some retailers are pretty good. So far, the only company that I've bought from that is a main distributor for drums, for drum items, happily, with no problems at all, prompt replies and even though the prices are starting to creep up wink.gif is JS lorh.



Anyway, I've got a friend selling a Tama Superstar Custom shell pack for RM3.5k, and I'm selling my Ludwig Epic (with no snare) for RM3k. smile.gif

1. Don't get the Gigmaker, it's a waste of money. Top up a bit more and get at least a Pearl Vision or Ludwig Epic smile.gif

Anyway, now we're past that, we can talk about the relative awesomeness of Yamaha drums. HAHAHAHA!

The Stage Custom is a pretty solid set. It's got punch and power and is a pretty good all rounder set.

Next up, the only one I've got experience with other than those two, is the Yamaha Oak Custom. Terrific response and the output is just crazy. And the tone is <3 HAHAHAHAHA!

Really, in Malaysia, when was the last time you saw a Pearl Reference, Tama Starclassic, Yamaha Recording Custom, Mapex Orion, Ludwig Classic Maple, DW Professional kit being displayed in a store for sale?

Even when I sell kits, I generally tend to focus on the low-midrange market, because that is all that our friends here have in stock most of the time. Everything else, 6 months or longer wait. Is this the reason why we don't really have nice gear around Msia?

I think most of the shops we have here nowadays don't know the real meaning of the word: service.

Sadly, people here likes to inquire about many things but when it comes to buying, they'll end up saying, I'll definitely buy it if I have the money. It is an advantage to know someone from a shop or until the point that they know you personally, then your inquiries will be much easier.

As for high end kits, let say as a dealer, you can sell 1 high end kit in a year and makes a profit of 2k. For the low ends you can sell 24 kits in a year with a profit of RM300 per set. Because of that, I think its reasonable not to stock of the high end ones.

Keep it in mind, regular people doesn't give much attention on drums. It's a challenging area to do business so, just try to be patience and give them the support they need.

I know what you mean smile.gif But still, it doesn't mean that they should totally ignore the high end market, because we do have quite a few good drummers here who do want to get good sets smile.gif

I remember going into Bentleys a while back, and they didn't even have a Masters, Reference or Starclassic set up tongue.gif Now I think they have a 4 pc Starclassic laaa but anyway, that's besides the point. if you put something in a shop, people WILL work towards it. They WILL say, someday, I want to get that kit. Now we have people saying that about Tama Superstars aje. xD

Too. Many. Sales. tongue.gif

Anyway, to bring the DRUMMING back into this thread;

Recently, I've been listening to a lot of music like Periphery, Animals as Leaders and Threat Signal, mostly because of their guitarists (recently, I've been focusing a lot more on my guitar work, since I can play/record at home, whereas I can't with drums) and as usual, slowly I started drifting towards their drummers, and I've realised something; which is that all (or most) of these incredibly complex drummers, play open handed and can lead with both sides, on both left and right, hands and feet. Basically, ambidextrous.

Personally, I've never taken the idea of open handed drumming very seriously in my own playing, except for some rare use when I'm playing blast beats or when I'm playing intricate ride patterns and I use hats on both hands to spice the accents and dynamics up. However, after watching all these drummers, some barely a few years older than me, doing all this crazy stuff, I've impressed on myself that I need to go and try to master this art of open handed ambidextrous drumming. How I'll be able to practice, I have no idea. But I'll start with trying some basic beats at my next band practice.

Basically, I feel that playing open handed may open up some leeway in your playing, and being able to lead with all your limbs will definitely do wonders for your playing; four way coordination, anyway tongue.gif

For those of you that are new to the concept, here are some examples:

Alex Rudinger



Carter Beauford



Travis Orbin



We've also got a couple of Malaysian drummers who do this, I can't remember who though. :/

Anyway, just found a set of IVA drum mics that I bought when I got my kit, never used them though xD HAHAHAHA. Immaculate condition, selling for RM700, with a retail price of nearly RM1.2k according to CM music. Any takers? Willing to trade as well.

Two condensers, one large diaphragm, and four moving dynamic coil mics, with four mic clips!

I also have a couple of new sets of the Yamaha DFP9415 (the precursor to the Flying Dragon) lying around in my friends store, and it's clearing for RM1200, when the retail was RM2150 smile.gif

Do let me know if you want it!


Anyway, about those silent sticks, I'm planning to get a pair when I convert my room into a studio, so as not to disturb the neighbours. Anyone wanna bulk?

Everything, EXCEPT MY CYMBALS! And my snare. tongue.gif AHAHAHA! The snare WILL be the next to go though. In fact, I'll post it up after I sell my mics or something so that I have enough to get another decent snare.



On a side note, I have managed to negotiate some prices with a certain company for my next set of drums (presuming I sell my Epic), and the prices are awesome! biggrin.gif I'm so excited. And its not the companies that I've hinted before. tongue.gif Its something else, something I wouldn't have considered until up to a few months ago. But it certainly seems like an amazing set, and lots of pro players do play it smile.gif

Hey, anyone wants to teach drums at Yamaha Bangsar Village II? I've already posted a thread in "Job Enlistments", but I figured that all the drummers will be here. If you're interested, pm me or sms@012-2088481.

Hey, the position is still open cause the person I found decided not to go for the job. If anyone interested, sms me.

Not sure if local Mapex has in stock. The 13 x 6 Maple/Walnut one from the 2010 collection, I think.

I need to sell some more of my stuff first before I can buy it lahh. But as soon as I do, here I come! And I may not be purchasing the Saturns anymore. (Yes, they were Saturns xD) because the price that GC quoted me was apparently without the shipping costs and taxes, so, something that was already expensive will get even more expensive, and I may not be able to afford that. smile.gif

Which also means that I may not get the Black Panther now, and perhaps I'll stick with Ludwig or something, if I can get a good deal.

Nope, like I was ranting a few pages ago, out local places never stock high end drums. HAHAHAHA!
So, its like a one-off basis. I might be getting used drums now from overseas, since I'll have to pay for shipping and taxes anyway. But I need to clear my Epic first. :/

Even lower end drums are taxed. smile.gif

Could have been an order that they made for someone, or one of their show kits lahh.
Anyway, when you're paying that much for a kit, you'd want to choose your own config, and your own finish, etc, thus, its almost always a custom order mahh. smile.gif

I'll try to get it by this year. It will definitely be a pro kit, but most probably not my dream kit tongue.gif HAHAHAHA!

Well, Singapore, not yet. I'm not sure of the dealer there, and I'll probably get around the same price, because they'd have to order to my specifications anyway, like a custom order. smile.gif

Mapex is from Taiwan, if I'm not mistaken, so shipping from Indon would be like incurring a double shipping cost?

Well, it depends. The least I'd go for is two overhead condensers, a kick drum mic and a snare mic. If you CAN, mic every single thing up.

Regarding EQing and all, well it depends on the individual drums, but to make the DRUM sound big, always put the kick and drum mic up a bit more than what you think sounds good. tongue.gif HAHAHAHA!

thanks for the advice though, but we are in a very limitted budget, so i reserved only 3 normal mics for drums (is normal mic okay?), or i should put 4? what am i planning is, 1 mic on hi hat, 1 mic put on the middle for crash and rack toms, 1 for bass drum and snare and 1 for ride, is arrangement okay? icon_question.gif

Also, am planning to make drum covers once i got my own drum set. As question above, is normal mic okay? No money for mic specilalised for drums sweat.gif sweat.gif

What do you mean by normal mics? Dynamic, shouldn't be a problem lah, if its a small event or something.

Hmm... Tell you what. Your bass drum and snare should have separate mics smile.gif If possible. Ride, let it bleed into your overhead.

What do you mean by normal mics? Dynamic, shouldn't be a problem lah, if its a small event or something.

I'd change my snare, as I carry my snare around a lot and I use it everywhere. smile.gif Right now I'm in between a Remo Ambassador and an Evans Power Centre Reverse Dot, deciding now. tongue.gif I like the Ambassador more than the PCRD, but I'll try out the Genera or G1 and see how it goes. I seem to like Evans heads more.

Next, I'd change my bass drum head, if I were you. The bass and snare are the two things you hit most in your drum arsenal. And again, right now I'm in between a Remo Powerstroke III and an Evans EMAD coated. I seem to be leaning towards using the EMAD more in the future though. I like the dry, focused sound of it.

Toms, I'd go last, for the reasons given above, but remember, they are no less important. Just that, to me at least they have a tendency to still sound at least okay compared to a snare or bass drum with crappy heads. On my end, I'm using Evans Hydraulics now. smile.gif

I use vdrums b4 TD4. Never use the percussion pad before so dunno wat feel you mean. I think all electronic drums feel the same unless buy damn high end like TD20 or something.

If only for practice purpose just buy the cheapest you can find that doesnt break down in 1 hit.

Haven't posted here in sometime so here's my 2 cents, from my own experience so others might beg to differ:

On the snare heads, I dunno what the discussion was but my advice: just stick to Evans, I like the popular EC Snare/Hazy 300 combo but others are good too. Attack is far too expensive and hence poor value for money, Aquarian is a gamble quality-wise (from my bad experience), and while Remo is good, the stuff they sell here seems dodgy (they don't even come in proper boxes!). I have 2 sets of Remo Emperor X Coated/Emperor Hazy combo that I got from US and these came in proper boxes; I don't think Bentley sells these. But as usual if your snare/tuning is crap, even the good heads will sound like crap. I remember playing one very ringy metal snare that has an Evans ST Dry batter... it sure's hell didn't sound "dry" at all!

On the inverted cymbal, just bend it back, it'll be fine. Someone mentioned stepping on it, and that sounds about right.

On the patch for the bass drum, just get the proper one, don't use duct tape etc. It's a compulsory item (at least to me). I'd recommend the Evans one from JS Music, made from fabric, not the other clear plastic one. Clear plastic one is not durable at all.

I agree.
I've never played Attack before, but I see what you mean. With Aquarian there was the problem of not being able to get the heads that you wanted whenever you wanted it a few years back because of low stocking levels, but I'm not sure about now.

As for the Remo vs Evans battle, I guess that is subjective to your own needs. I'm currently using Evans on everything except for my main 13' snare, and I have a Remo Ambassador on that, cause it just suits it best, and there's also an Ambassador on my 14' side snare. The Evans Power Centre Reverse Dot just doesn't have enough "oomph" for me, and bounce too.

I'll probably get the EC next month or so.

Too lazy too list down. Basically, drums are combination of PDP X7+ Pearl VMX. Snares are Pearl + Mapex. Cymbals are mainly Sabian + Few Staggs. Skins are all Evans G1 Top & Bottom for all toms except for 18inch I'm having a hard time looking for a pair. Hardwares; rack is from Pearl, remote hihats left side is from Gibraltar, right is from Pearl.

Yup! I play open hand. But recently I've been trying to develop and to be able to lead with my right hand, and left foot. That's why the setup is almost balanced left & right. Very difficult and the progress is not that good.

I'm testing them out tomorrow on a Ludwig, then on a Pearl. I'll see if can take pictures then. x)

The Ludwig is in exactly the configuration that I want my next kit to be in! One bass kick, two floor toms, two snares. biggrin.gif Two pairs of hats, three crashes, one ride, and one stack.

Hey guys, sorry a bit off topic, but need some help from all the sifus here.
Im looking for a drum instructor, who can teach me a bit of everything.
I've been playing the drums for about a year now, but on my own, and without the theory part and all that.
Need someone to guide me the proper and refined way of learning this awesome instrument.
Do PM me if there are teachers here, with your charges and timing and all that. Thank you!

Agreed. While a lot of people CAN speak without being able to read or write, you can't deny that reading or writing WILL give you numerous extra opportunities. Especially once you move on to more advanced pieces.

Anyway, about my DFP9415, its a really smooth double pedal, and I'm really enjoying the response and the feel I get when playing it, but I miss the "power" of double chain lah. biggrin.gif

This is what's on my price list.
RM230 for 20', RM250 for 22' and RM270 for 24' INKED BY EVANS.
Add RM55 to the head that you want to print on for customization fees. If you want a port hole, add RM20. smile.gif

I think the standard price is for the ones that JS ordered, but if you want your own custom stuff with your band name et. all have to add lorh.

They told you they want to blacklist you?
