He's working on it. Lol.

@@jables3377 No doubt. I did this really quick and was not happy with it at all. I stink at recording.

Thank you for that. I have so much to learn.

No doubt. I got hooked on these as soon as I saw them.

@basementdrumlab 😂

@@louisficarra5861 Yeah, this is my other hobby when I can’t go Jeeping.

I had a Tama Rack in the early 90s and loved it. When I went to build this set, I just didn't feel like Tama had advanced as well as Gibraltar. It felt like the Tame hard ware of the 90s hadn't really advanced that much. It just seemed like Gibraltar had a lot more options and versatility.

I did a Google search of the Tama rims and found the part numbers. When I gave those to my local drum shop, he found them in his catalogs. Yes, he still uses catalogs.

If I was filthy rich I'd have a much bigger room for the drums.

I haven't been able to find any information on a 5000 series remote HH on any store website or anything. Do you have any links? I can't even find one on eBay.

@@andresaguilar327 Sorry I haven’t posted a lot recently. Things have been a little crazy.

@@sp1epiphany I hope to get some new content going again. Life has been what life will be at times.

@@sp1epiphany I don’t have a link. I had to special order them through my local music store. I couldn’t find anyone selling them on line. In fact, they had to ship them from the factory.

@@basementdrumlab thank you for the information. I really appreciate it. I’ll go through my local dealer then and have them ordered. Beautiful kit btw.

They are just some Behringer mics. I bought two drum set kits from Sweetwater. They aren’t anything fancy. I think this is the kit: www.sweetwater.com/store/detail/BC1200--behringer-bc1200-professional-7-piece-drum-microphone-set I bought two sets. I used two of the overheads for overheads then used the other two on my HH and ride. So I actually had almost the right number of mics.

I haven’t seen any issues with it. The toms are pretty light too.

Thanks! ​@@basementdrumlab

Too funny.

Amazingly enough, it doesn’t dent the tubes. I have them cranked but not as hard as you’d think. They aren’t as heavy as some floor toms I’ve felt.

Yah I ended up getting a couple Gibraltar SC-GCML 1.5 drum rack memory locks. One on each side of the mounting clamp. This helps a great deal and allows me to tighten at a reasonable amount to avoid denting the rack bar.

@@codersexpo1580 That’s a smart idea. I might have to copy that and put additional memory clamps on the other side of the main clamps.

I mostly agree but the 1st tom sounds tight, the rest sound too loose to me.

@@applelandry4233 I’m thinking it’s the bottom heads. I replaced all the factory heads with E2s but I still have the factory bottom heads. I tried to get a better tonal spread across all of the toms but they felt choked off after doing it. Watched a lot of videos about tone and how important the quality of those reso heads is. So I may have to do that to get the range I’m looking for.

@@basementdrumlab yes! Absolutely! I use the clear genera's and the thinnest snare heads (for both sides) I can get. My studio setup is nowhere near as sophisticated as yours and I've definitely recorded with sound engineers who "fix" my tones, particularly the toms, but I like to hear what it'll sound like as I'm playing. And having matching heads on the top and bottom for the toms and, surprising for me, having the correct bass heads & mallet really improve the sound and creates a better opportunity for the engineer to pick up what'll eventually be eq'd. I'm not a sound engineer, just your basic "I count to 4!" drummer and I could be using the wrong words here so I hope this all makes sense.

On the kicks, I’m trying to figure out if it’s the room. I haven’t sound treated the room at all. I’m also trying to not put a hole in the front head. I’m using wood beaters to try to get the punch back that I’m loosing without a front head port. I’ve also seen where some sound engineers mix the batter head and the reso head on basses to get the punch back.

H8r

@@Mongoliantreecoware you dumb? I'm not hating at all. He asked for feedback and his levels are off.

That snare is weird. I can’t capture the sound that I hear when I’m sitting there and I have mics on top and on bottom. I’m going to crank the head some more and I’ve ordered a different mic. The HH is bugging me too. It’s like the 13s cut through so much that it jumps way out in the mix. I’m wondering if I need to move my overheads back a little. They are above my shoulders and I’m wondering if they are too close to mix well. I panned those floor toms for the first time on this video but I didn’t think to bring them up after panning. Great feedback, by the way. It really helps to have additional ears.

It’s more Simon Phillips inspired but yeah, Portnoy too.

​@@basementdrumlab simon phil. Cymbal stand Y shape 😅..

Alright! Thank you! This makes a lot of sense. Thank you for taking the time to put that together for me. That’s super helpful because I can hear what you are talking about and didn’t have the understanding of how to “fix” it.

It’s like I can’t capture the sound that my ears hear when I’m sitting there next to it. I even have a mic underneath. I’m going to have to try cranking it beyond what my ear likes and see if it records better. So much to learn.

@@basementdrumlab that are fun exercises that learn you so much stuff

Yeah, the snare feels buried in the mud. I even put a second mic on the bottom head. Still couldn’t get it to pop out. I think I’m going to have to crank up the top head more too. I need to learn more about compression.

I really appreciate the additional ears. It really helps.

This is stuff I need to learn about. I understand enough to know what you’re talking about but putting in to action is some stuff I need to experiment with.

@@basementdrumlab of course, but I mean the experimentation is the fun part. Nothing beats the feeling of finally setting the sound you wanted from the start. All the best mate, cannot wait to hear some covers from ya.

Funny you should say that. I have been wrestling with that very thing. I tried bringing them up but the tone started getting choked off. I replaced all of the top factory heads with E2s but I didn’t replace the bottom heads. I think that’s where my issue is.
