Woah! it has been a while since i've done this! ha
To be honest, I don't know why, but I just lost interest in DW and GN for a couple months...
I would think about it, but I would come to get on it, and would just quit for some reason.. haha. wow.
but, I'm back! I could never forget you guys...
i was thinking this...
why do more drummers not have the internal drum miking system?
especially on their kick drum?
one less stand.
sounds better depending on placement.
easier ..
am i missing something?
Alex
alright guys. this prolly sounds stupid.
but, for a touring/gigging kit, what would be a better choice?
a non-wrapped kit with say a satin stain/gloss finish?
or
a wrapped kit?
now, these drums will be in all types of conditions. not like smoke and all that. but like extreme heat, and...
hey guys!
sorry, only have 2 pics! (which might be a good thing..haha)
but, we played a show in Tulsa, Oklahoma, and it rocked..
during soundcheck. thats why my hoody was still on..haha
then our merch booth before we set our t-shirts up...
and then our new t-shirts!!
sorry, ill have...
well, when i order my custom kit eventually, i was thinking of what tom sizes i would like..
and it got me thinking...
right now, i have the Yamaha, and its a 1 up, 1 down kit.
i've always wanted a bonham style kit. but not the 26" bass for my main gigging kit.
i've also never had any luck...
at the concert, my dad got a shot of me hitting my cymbals..or right after it..
and, you can see it bending..
kinda scares me..lol...but i think its cool..
sorry for the bad pic and darkness, but you can tell...
Alex
sorry bout the pics being dark...camera isnt that good and of course the room was dark except for the stage..
and sorry for the massive amount of pics..lol...i just like all of them..lol
Alex
well, kinda..lol..
more like living room pics..but, thats where we recorded at! lol
ok, these pictures, are after about 45 minutes of clean up...so, it looks organized..lol...and it is kinda now, but it wasnt when we recorded..but it sounds good i think..
and the recordings im...
sorta..
studio as in my living room..lol
i recorded with my Soundcraft Powered Mixer into my Mac with Audacity..
and i think it sounds pretty good!!
i used a set of Samson drum mics, 2 over heads, 1 on hat, snare,floor, rack, and kick. i had a D-6 on the kick..
Guitar cabs are miked with...
i know there is the May Internal Miking system for like the bass drum, but, would it be practical to put it in the toms?
im just wondering, cause, would it sound better? and it'd be quicker..
Alex

i love his snare sound...i saw them live and it...
well, i know these lady from church, and she said that she had repoed a house lately, and it had a set of drums in it. she said, she had no need for them and she would gladly give them to me..
so of course, i was like....YAH!!
yes, they are Rogers. but they are the newer rogers and they...
well, we have voted and we are going to have to kick one of our members out...
what is the best way...
we are thinking him just show up to practice...and we'll all tell him then?
but then were like..lets make it funny..
"hey, were bringing our old band name back....and your still the lead...
how often does your school replace their battery heads?
like bass drum and quads...
cause, of some reasons, i had to step down from lead snare and play bass in my friends position.
the heads on the drum have been on the for 4+ years, and i busted one..
so, im going to have to pay for it...
