I won an ebay auction and this same snare is on the way to me. Paid $67 USD shipping included. Mint condition...I think I can work with it when I get it. Thanks for posting.
How do you record into logic? I’ve been using the drums mono output but is there a way to record stereo into logic?
@@michaeldemartino1204 howdy, I just go, mono jack to interface (focusrite) and in to the Mac. I control each pad volume from the drum brain. I don’t think there’s another way to
@@BrendrumJonesthanks
Good review. Thanks. Not sure about your headgear though. If Einstein wore a baseball cap backwards he’d look like an idiot. No one can get away with it.
@@stevebird8419 😂 yeah, I feel the same about guys in their 60s that wear 90s stretch hippy earrings.
Tysm for this video! I couldn't figure out how to properly apply the tape to the Taiko bacchis (Drum sticks for japanese Taiko drum)I have but now I have them applied and the grip is so much better now! Thanks for making this video!
thank you for sharing your opinion a really useful video !
Hey, you’re more than welcome, thanks for watching 👀
Thank you, this is so on point.
Hey, you’re more than welcome, thanks for watching 👀
Wow this is great! Really helped with some numbness I was having. Think it also helped with some discomfort from being on a computer keyboard for work all day. Perhaps very similar muscle and nerve groups.
Hey, you’re more than welcome, thanks for watching 👀
Am i tripping or did you not go back to explaining the importance of the middle wingnut? Lol all in all a great video 👍
@@Groov3lab lol yes I did, you have to tighten all of the wignuts to stop wobbling 4.25
@@BrendrumJones I was tripping then 🤣👍
@@Groov3lab 😂😉
No Walk from Pantera? Disappointed 😂 it would have went down well.
😂😂 Ahh those were the days 😂
I've played alot of gig with drummers. Some guys have their "system" worked out and some don't. I've played with some drummers who use aluminum stands because they are lighter and easier to move around. Some use the bags to put the drums in (like in this video). Some guys carry each piece individually. The drummers who are organized and put some thought into it never complain about loading in and out and those guys hardly ever want anyone to help them. The ones who don't have a system or a thought out plan, complain much more and usually have or want someone to help them. It's just like anything else in life.... try it different ways, see what works and what doesn't ... then adjust and plan accordingly and always revise and improve your method to make your load in and out more efficient so that your not worn out before or after you play your gig.
Sounds huge for it’s size
Also: If you have thumb pain like in the beginning of the video, try sticks that have a coating on them like vic firth's double glaze sticks. They arent as slippery as regular sticks so you dont have to grip them as hard.
hey my bro brendan , i just emailed you thru your website please read it asap PLEASE , i am a oldschool 80's drummer here in the u.s. and only have email here n this y.t. channel and i would love to talk more bout drums n such , i am 52 now , i own a practice pad on a double brced stand and a bunch of sticks , i am in needing of a kit/set , read email please , thankjs n we'll talk soon > tom !
Hey man, thanks for getting in contact, what's your Budget?
I agree with you. Casual gigging, I really like Protection Racket drum bags. Touring with all your drums mixed in with other gear in a van, truck, lorry with other people handling your gear? Hard cases for sure!
Defo
You should stitch the hardware bag up a little so it doesn’t rip even more. 🤷🏻🤘🏼
It’s gone now 😂😂 you’re right it rip so bad I had to get a new one. But I got many years out of it
I just replace my p-83 the original one on my Ludwig accent snare drum I had some issues getting stuck on the bottom and when it arrived I put some 3 in one oil and it worked perfectly and still looks new
I use DW 3000 Hardware. It’s a medium weight. But I also have a 9000 double tom stand as well!!!
wtf was that ?
Tolle Übungen. Präzise erklärt und gezeigt.
Meini should also do the pickup with its travel cajon
Thanks!! Thank you SOOOOO MUCH!!!! 🥰
nice. the first excercise is also used in occupational and physical therapy to combat and prevent joint problems in the feet.
for some people the second excercise could be a little hard on the base joints of the toes. a possible alternative would be an isometric excercise where you lie down, stretched out legs, soles to the wall and do the same movement (flex the foot), but only build tension (you are not supposed to move) and hold it for 10 to 20 seconds, relaxing and repeat (i worked as an occupational therapist for eight years). but yes, stretching is essential and good. the muscle memory is also a very interesting topic in that regard, but way too vast for a comment.
Thanks for that information. Yeah muscle memory is very vast, in drumming a small part it’s the length of practice. Long periods to instil it and short periods to recall the movement and execute it at a drop of a hat. Muscle are slow learners.
Do you have recommendations for buying rubber padding yourself to add to a hard case? Apparently some cases don't come with padding or some of the cheaper ones have low quality material. Just wondering if you know of any go-to material to buy yourself and line the inside of a hard case.
This worked great for me, especially the clapping. 😂
@@krissford7780 excellent
DAYUM. so many frankly sound the same. those sound gorgeous
Why did Pearl stop making the Traveler? It's such a perfect size kit
‘Never seen before’…… is was here in 1959!
Fantastic information
No right or wrong..its depend
Yeah, 100% right
Promark Hickory long 5a's & Vic Firth Thomas Lang 5B's for hard rock
Great kit is the Tama, but I use a Pearl Compact Traveller with all the add-ons. Awesome sound and love your Chanel 😮
Awesome groove
Thanks brother
Ordered in 2021, still not get 2024😂😂😂 Fxcxk
Such a shame, sorry to hear it
I used this 4 osu
What is OUS
Tip for the snare if you put a napkin or a sock over the snare wires it will mask the noise dramatically and still sound like a snare
Cool
Lemon alone is not but add vinegar to it... be careful though cuz it will remove cymbal logos
Was that count in written in the score?
What count? You mean at the beginning?
@@BrendrumJones yeah, i know for musicals the conductor normally cues in, unless you were the conductor.
@@marccheah6711 yes you’re 100% right, i think the conductor was supposed to, but we have an issue with the lights for that scene so I had to click it off.
@@BrendrumJonesWow, it came off very natural though, so great job!
@@marccheah6711 thanks, Are you going to play the show?
Very bad
Wow, great production value and great drumming of course. Thanks for inspiring everyone with your videos !!!
Can I have them?
poplar shells in a good tuning with good touch will work.nice.
Regarding the span of the wires, I use the notches in the metal core of the handle to narrow them. My personal favorite is the first notch to narrow the span about an itch. This works best for my style and I have a light touch with Remo Renaissance heads with no coating - the texture is built into the surface and doesn't wear out. My wires never snag in the gap between the hoop and head.
I need new earplugs. I really do. I used to have a pair of Vic Firth earplugs. They make the best sticks, and their earplugs aren’t bad either!! Unfortunately, I think I might have lost them.
I’ve always found the moulded ear plugs to be the best but only if you’re playing shows a Lot
I have both. The Jazz are great for large venues, the Heritage great for smaller ones. Love them both!
Cool
Thank you so much. You are a life (hand) saver. ❤
You're welcome im glad it helped you
This snare is absolutely fabulous!! I love its tone and sonic characteristics so so much, it almost feels like it's "the one' for me, I'll definitely try it out and buy it😆😆
👍🏻
thanks for this video and your insights my friend. i just received a Tama Club Jam Pancake kit , along with a set of Remo Silentstrokes (super quiet) and got some Wuhan low volume cymbals (they work somewhat, but I find them still a bit too loud, while feel remains the same). In this case, I may return them and grab this exact set after trying it out in store, and I find the feel to be nearly exact to the Wuhans, even the same quip/gripe about the crash feeling... weird... but the ride and hats being fine! I tried to go cheap and get the Wuhans but they are still oddly too loud, especially the ride cymbal. Hoping with these new cymbals I'll have my practice kit complete and will be able to get daily practice in at my house, instead of breaking down my giant PDP concept maple (10x13 racktom, 18x16 floor, 14x26 bass drum) to take to a rehearsal space once a week lol
Cool, I do find you will get a sound out of them but ive never had an issue with the low volumes that i used. I assume the cheaper ones would be just as good but there you go. Chat soon.
Dude, thank you so much! I work at a music studio but I never messed with drums and the chain part of the hi hat came off and I couldn't put it back and I could not find any solution online, you saved me a lot of headache! Thank you, thank you!
Ahh thats great im glad it helped you. Best of luck
I always used hickory in the past until I tried maple! I'm now using Vater 5B sugar maple and will not look back. I agree tho, when they break, they usually break completely in half but the tip usually stays intact!
I love the Maple vater 5bs they're very good.
God
I have 9 snare drums in total!!!!!
Very cool, I sold a few last year so I think I’m down to 5 😂
