Drum Setup
Hey Flash, first thanks for the compliments. The drums i play on are Tama Rockstar Customs, the 22 inch bass drum, with 8,10,12,13,16 inch toms. I use all Sabian Pro's. I really like the sound of Sabian Pros, and they are mid line pricewise. I play 12in hats, 15in crash, 14in crash, 8in china splash, 22in ride, 16in china, and a black beauty cowbell. I trigger all of my drums from
the Alesis DM Pro module. I use redshot, and Ddrum triggers. The key is to get enough of the acoustic drums to ring through to catch the nuances of your playing. I sometimes trigger just the bass drums, or just the snare. But in this case it was everything. I compress my cymbals a little to even out some ringing. I am actually a guitar player...but am getting much better on the drums...even though the drummer in my band won't admit it...he has ego issues! That may be more than you wanted to know...but that covers it. Once again appreciate the compliments...and yeah child molestation is sic!!!
Just a note, alot of people trigger to cover up a less than great sounding kit...i do just for the ease, and accuracy,and variety of sounds you can achieve. Tons of metal guys trigger, i am just into the sound.
