The Lackey Posted August 23, 2005 Share Posted August 23, 2005 QUOTE (yyzyy @ Aug 23 2005, 12:51 PM) what is meant by...'homemade'? really cool by the way I followed directions at Electronic Drums Basically I purchased a cheap ($120) practice kit. Took apart the heads, mic'd them up, and they go into the Ddrum module (not cheap, $1000+, but great sounding). Then bought some cheaper stands, added the plastic cymbals, mic'd them up. I live in a condo so I can't use real drums. The ddrum4 has lots of downloadable sounds, plus it is possible to add your own. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's awesome Jack. I'm not a big fan of electric drum kits, but it would be nice to have one for practicing. Sometimes I get such an urge to drum, but it's 1:00 in the morning and everyone is sleeping. I would love to just be able to pop on some headphones and start playing. That probably won't happen for awhile, though, since I'm planning on getting a much better regular kit first before messing around with the electronic stuff. Still looks really sweet.

launchpad67a Posted August 31, 2005 Share Posted August 31, 2005 QUOTE (charliewang @ Aug 14 2005, 07:38 PM) i just got the entire paragon set up....well i have a bit more to pay off on it so far i only got 500 on it and it's $2112 which is the greatest price ever. The guy who printed that price tag out is the biggest neil peart and rush fan i swear he just burned me 2 cd's of neil's solos feom 74 up till the r30 tour so needless to say we're pretty much buddies now. i'll post a pic of the price tag i got from it as soon as i can get some pictures on my computer. Charlie, just wondering if you bought those cymbals because you like the sound or because Neil plays them? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I dont play drums, but i know what i like when it comes to how cymbals sound, i like how the effects sound, but the ride just sucks, im sorry not my cup of tea with a ride, i think matts Zildijan ride sounds better than that sabian paragon.

kazzman Posted November 12, 2005 Share Posted November 12, 2005 Ok, picked up a 20" Paiste Alpha Power Ride today. Not the best quality that Paiste offers, but for the style my band plays, it fits perfectly. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CygnusX-1Bk2 Posted December 15, 2005 Author Share Posted December 15, 2005 Man, nice vintage Premiers! They look like early 70's or late 60's. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stickman Posted December 15, 2005 Share Posted December 15, 2005 Im told by my mate that i bought them off they are from the late 70's i do have the orginal hardware which are Trilok stands. But i found them to be to rusty to use as the kit was dumped in my mates garage for 10yrs till i bought them off him and spent some money on it.

CloserToTheHEART Posted January 9, 2006 Share Posted January 9, 2006 I don't have a drumkit yet so I guess technically I'm not a drummer. I have been reading a lot about drums and practicing a lot of the exercises in them though. I have two pairs of drumsticks though. I have Ringo Starr Pro-Mark's, and LA Speical Med. Rock. Both are Hickory. I'm hoping to get a drum pad for my birthday... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kazzman Posted January 14, 2006 Share Posted January 14, 2006 Just picked up a new Zildjian A Custom 8" splash cymbal and DW 9000 double bass pedal. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

kazzman Posted January 15, 2006 Share Posted January 15, 2006 Depends on the definition of a good deal. I paid $600 for both the pedal and cymbal, but that was with the warranties and they threw in a free pair of sticks with the purchase. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

different strings Posted January 16, 2006 Share Posted January 16, 2006 Good one KAZZMAN in my opinion the DW pedals are the most lightweight and responsive pedals of any that I have played. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
progrush2112 Posted January 17, 2006 Share Posted January 17, 2006 Got a Wuhan 12" China today. It's one great little cymbal. And it only cost me $12 bucks at Guitar Center. The guy there was also asking me about my DCI jacket too, which was pretty cool. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kazzman Posted January 20, 2006 Share Posted January 20, 2006 Picked up a 16" Zildjian A Custom Fast Crash. Gimme 1 more of those and two 18" ones and I'll be a happy drummer. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
