My wife won this from Sweetwater drumfest, she can't wait to use it on her kit

He must have had a heavier gauge steel...also I wonder if a pulley system would multiply the pulling length?

And use the snare hoop as a tamborine....Win!

I couldn't unhand that China for years. Eventually got 10 bucks for it. We all had it. Mine was free at a guitar center opening around 2006

I get lime 80mpg with my snare

You ain't 66Samus. Stop trying to copy him.

Utter shite.

1:34 nice nuts bro 🥜

The balloon kit would be perfect for the next children's birthday party gig.

Damn, I need a drum friend like yours 😫

My man with the dress and the dude at the end

ONLY $5000

$1400 donner product is ceazy

5:47, my own summer?

And now Tama is making a newly manufactured version of the original from the 80s. It is supposed to be as close as you can get to the original and you can have one for the bargain price of only $4k. Still probably cheaper than an original 80s Mastercraft "Bell Brass."

Lug-Locks: There's some 80's era Sonor Phonic series drums that have a "grip" inside of them that help prevent vibration based de-tuning. That works OK.

Stack was sick. The China alone sounded like garbage. Ride sounded nice and so did the hats.

ok but imagine you pull up to a gig with a suitcase and a throne

The amount of work that went into this video is insane

Good job on finally painting that tom. Now when are you going to do the $5 drumset series?

nah those sound terrible

While I don't think that these features are super important, I would focus on rebounce, feel, sound and stability/rigidity. Would be more important to me than flashing leds

About the cymbal roll i could need to watch this vid so i always search a cymbal roll with drumsticks, and the vid i have to do it over and over :_)

😮 where is tom3 .

The drum into piano with no sustain pedal is awesome. Gives that radio-esque intro sound

I really like the balloons in the kick drum, but not any of the others

It's the 1st, but the last wasn't bad either.

This is the silliest video iv watched on your channel so far - this is just so silly!😂😂

👍🏻

5:48 Deftones - My Own Summer.

"expand" .... LOL

when it comes to the second hack, i suspect you did not understand the assignment. even if you used the same metal at same gauge, the shape was too large, the cord tension too low. perhaps the piece could have been reverse concave bend preloading the whole thing. do you ever work with string instruments?

@davidadrian mira bro ya trascendió tu experimento

2:29 dude invented a wah pedal for drums

Why make your life about anything else than Jesus Christ? Turn to the living God and ask him to reveal himself to you!

If you fill the balloons with helium you can raise your tone 2 octaves

Balloons in the drums is the perfect Fleetwood Mac tusk sound - to the point I wonder if that's what they did!

What will happen if I use a lot of cowbells?

Someone call Nate smith

Doesnt even sound like a ride, sounds like hi hat and snare besides the initial crash. 🤔 So it makes the whole dumb video even more retarded.

I have to say, you play a MEAN doohickey

I'd rock the balloon kit just cause that looks fucking awesome

Sounds like the DW mix is heavier on room mics (with not much EQ on them at that) while the Eastars mix has much less room content. I know the drums are tuned differently, and they obviously have different heads (which makes a huge difference), but this doesn't seem enough to explain the 'up close' feel of the Easters mix vs. the roomier vibe of the DW. Seems like there's more than just head swapping/tuning going on (altered mix settings?). The Eastars are made of much softer wood and are certainly not sealed inside, so that soft, sound-absorbing environment will suck up the mids and highs giving a more 'scooped' frequency spectrum (totally in line with what I"m hearing), while the harder, sealed sugar maple DW shells are less hyped, flatter sounding (also part of what I'm hearing), but the ambient feel of one with the intimate feel of the other leaves me wondering what else is in play? I do very much like the video, please don't misunderstand. It's a great topic to explore! I'm a huge fan of people figuring out what matters in the drum world vs. what is just cleaver marketing. 👍

First one has PornHub vibes...

These TAMA locks are WEAK af, never hold a crash properly. Pearl wing-locks for the win(g)! 🤘

I like the shaker thing on the high hats. Air balloons in acrylic drums.... cool. Especially if you like played weddings or something you could color coordinate the balloons to the event. Maybe water balloons 🤔. Ive seen another channel try it once and did notice a difference but id like to see what you could do with the aluminum foil lined around the inside of the kick drum like Bonham supposedly did.

Doesn't look worth the money as a whole, but the pad cables running in the stand is a nice idea and probably gives more space for customization

Time to put a new fang in the tone arm cobra

Naturally, the next step is to fill your drum set with water balloons :)

I like the balloon hack. You are creating barriers for the internal pressure wave to have to deal with, which slows it down. I've never been a fan of moongel, tape, wallet, or any other method of muting the head. This way, it allows the heads to still do their thing. I would probably do that for the kick and snare (but with less balloons, maybe). Love the channel, David. Cheers from Hillsdale, Kansas (KC area)!
