[QUOTE=Eluveitie;27347855]For fast double bass, you'd want Tim Waterson, or George Kollias.
For groovy double bass I'd use the ones you mentioned.[/QUOTE]
Touche, good sir.
Recorded this one earlier today.

When covering a song, do you guys use headphones? Trying to cover some black metal songs
[QUOTE=sirpopsalot_;27352147]When covering a song, do you guys use headphones? Trying to cover some black metal songs[/QUOTE]
definatly. wouldn't be able to do it without, when recording in studio, we first take a rough cut with the band, and play that on the headphones while recording the instruments seperate.

[QUOTE=sirpopsalot_;27352352]What headphones would you recommend? Need some bad so I can actually hear what im playing[/QUOTE]
i'd reccomend IEM's over anything else
shure SCL2 are great for the price, SCL3 are better, but a lot more expensive.
if you really have a lot of money to spend, try costum fit ones, like ultimate ears.
[QUOTE=SolidSnake52;27344421]I can't imagine training like Lars to be that hard, if just because he is terribly overrated and can no longer perform most of the best Metallica songs.
I would instead look up to - just from my perspective - a drummer more like Mike Portnoy, Neil Peart, Jason Rullo, or Casey Grillo.[/QUOTE]
That's not really what I'm asking. well I guess i worded it bad.
When training double bass will your tendons get sore?
I have to work on speed of my single strokes on my feet so that's why I am aiming for metallica, which is pretty simple double bass.

what the fuck happened to that zbt crash dude
[/QUOTE]
I pounded on mine when I first started playing and I couldn't even do that to mine. I was probably on the way to though, especially when i stood up and fucking pounded on it like a wife who didn't made the sandwich right
good thing i dont pound my AAX or xs20s now
[QUOTE=sirpopsalot_;27352147]When covering a song, do you guys use headphones? Trying to cover some black metal songs[/QUOTE]
I use earphones and then put industrial ear protectors on, so the balance between the song and my drums is about 80/20.

Years of playing, was one of the first cymbals I ever bought, it's finally come to the end of it's days.
Not sure what you mean about the hi-hat pedal though, it was always in reach, It was just on the otherside of my bass pedal.
[QUOTE=sirpopsalot_;27352352]What headphones would you recommend? Need some bad so I can actually hear what im playing[/QUOTE]
I just take my iPod earbuds and put some earmuffs over them. Works nicely for cheap.
I dont want to use my earbuds, they are some nice Bose ones and I dont want anything to happen to them. Can anyone recommend some headphones?
Also, could anyone explain how triggers work? Should be recording with my band in June and im sure ill need something like them
Hey guys, been a long time since I checked in. Im pleased by how many people play/want to play drums on the forum.
Best advice: Do. Not. Give. Up.
There have been times where i just wanted to quite. Not being able to learn something, not having enough time to learn something, etc. Another excuse I hear is i'm too old to play drums. One of my students is 67, I started teaching him 2 years ago and he just formed a quartet with his old pals. Went to one of their gigs at a Portuguese club and they where killin'. Anyways, do not give up!
Thought I would add to the content so here is a small video I shot of my restored 1964 Slingerland. The thing sounds and looks great. Use it for gigs and recording sessions.

Notes: I am still in the process of restoring this kit. Here is a list of things i'm still waiting on.
Pearl S1000 snare stand (for the 12" rack tom)
16" Floor tom Free Floating Basket
12" Coated Aquarian Response II
16" Coated Aquarian Response II
P.S.
My recording room is a MESS. I'm still in the process of organizing everything. I just moved.
Bumping with this sick clip.

Post a video when you can play it fluently.
Here's a weird new drum-video. Made it so that both ezdrummer and a synth triggered at the same time in logic(with my Roland Td9). Some kind of weird ambient/drum-thing..

This is not really what I expect when I view a drumvideo, but I think it's pretty cool.

Shit dog that's the same electric kit I have. Small world
Marching world class DCI this summer. Woooooooooooooo!
I'm no drummer or drum technician, but I would like to know about snare drum sound. Some snare drums leave a very harsh paper sound, yet some sound very open (without a released snare). Is this all to do with the tightening of the snare, skin, or both? And what else can vowel up a snare drum from a KEH to a KOH sound or KAH to KIH??

it's all about how tight the head (skin) is, and the tightness of the snares on the bottom head does a great deal too.
of course the shape of the snare has massive impact too.
The bottom head plays a lot more than the top head in snare response also. A tight bottom leads to a more articulate sound, while a loose bottom head leads to a wet snare.
Practicing a new drum cover for 2 days now. Getting angry and frustrated sucks, but I'm too stubborn to give up.. At least there's progress.

I do, I lived in Lisbon for a bit to get away from the US.
City is pretty crazy there. I currently reside in Boston because of work and College.
