drums.webp This used to be a blue Chad Smith pearl kit. I didnt like the wrap so i took it of and refinished it. :D :guitar:
 
Another pic because 3 more cymbals have been added. I am done with cymbals for a long long while now. Especially considering I have too many lol. Picked up the EFX off ebay for a reasonable price but the 10" and 8" splash I got for a steal at $125 for both. Time to stay off the internet places that sell things that I dont need.

Just realized I've actually got a kit now...a fuckin' e-kit....lol...I don't feel like the Lone Ranger after seeing the Roland kit, but here's my new Yamaha DTX400 e-kit I use to trigger drum samplers in my recordings...:D.While I've got a long, long way to go playing drums, I do have to say these are a lot of fun, & they're a hell of a lot faster than hand-programming the drums to my songs...

Gee. I wonder why? You should share some pics of them in their new home!

You asked for it...

I think I need to contact the seller though. They make my entire kit just sound like "thwack thwack thwack". Even the cymbals!

My incredible prowess in mic placement somehow created some lens flare, so sorry about that.

notice that I actually went through the trouble to put an SM57 on the snare. Anything for a gag :D Now to put all of my mic clips back where they belong...

I'm in the same boat, I love mine for hammering out sampled drum lines. I still have to use liberal amounts of quantization because I suck, but I have such a blast in the process that I actually look forward to laying down drum tracks now.
 
Yeah dude, I know the feeling about having to fix my screw ups, but still, it's a hell of a lot faster than programming my drums by hand, & it's a lot of fun for me to whack out the beats on these things....

Here's my first recording with 'em, be gentle, I'm not a drummer....The only thing that are actually me (for now, I'm in the process of recording all the tracks for this, did some rhythm guitar tracks for it today with the Chupacabra....:)) are the drums...The other tracks are Rock Band multi-tracks I can open in Reaper to really be able to hear what some bands' tracks actually sound like solo'd....

Simple Man cover

Nice looking setup/room btw dude...
 
I can't remember if I posted this thing. My friends tour kit. Yamaha absolute birch custom, A and K custom cymbals (and some of those oriental trash series chinas). Snares are yamaha copper series 6.5X14 and side snare is yamaha steel shell.

Pretty easy to see who his endorsements are. lol

Nice Loren, I'm glad you bumped my cheap-ass e-kit post off too....lol...

I will say I read this entire thread last night & was thinking about what some of you real drummers were saying about the way you set your kits up for yourselves, so I did the same with my e-kit (as much as possible anyway...), lowering the toms, & putting the pads where it's easier/best for me...

I do wish there was more adjustment/ability to move the pads around more, but even the little I adjusted the pads seemed to help...

There are some very, very nice kits here...
