The Police: Synchronycity 2 Drum Cover (Recorded March 2024) Accoustic Drumset Debut!

A departure from the double bass journey (which has mostly come to a close). I was going to post a rig rundown detailing this whole "new" kit of mine. I recorded it, was editing it, recorded a different song, then realized that other song's video stunk. So I spent time with good old Stewart Copeland. One of the most articulate and unique drummers who's always SOUNDED incredible. This is a simple set up. I'm using one mic. So the challenge now is sounding good on real drums. Also figured out how to get drumless tracks so the quality is way up from before :) Anyway, here's the rig:
.
Pearl Eliminator Power Shifter Pedals
Pearl Master's Custom 4 ply maple: 12, 14, and 18 toms
Pearl Master's Custom Extra 6 ply maple: 10, 13 toms, 22 kick
Pearl Firecracker Snare: 10
Snare: TBA :)
Paiste Signature Full Crash 16
Paiste Signature Reflector Heavy Full Hi Hats 14
Paiste PSTX Swiss splash 10
Paiste 900 Series Crash 18
Paiste PSTX Thin Swiss Crash 18
Paiste Signature Reflector "Powerslave" Bell Ride (Nicko McBrain Signature) 22
Paiste Signature Full Ride 20
.
Not shown: a second identical kick, a 4 ply 16 floor tom, Paiste signature 8 and 12 splash, paiste signature precision china 18, Piaste 2002 china 20.
.
In the future, I'd like to try to emulate the original drummers' kits as close as I can with my arsenel while remaining comfortable. I don't have the 4 octobans but this is pretty close to Stewart's later era Police. Stay tuned and subscribe for my triumphant conclusion to my double kick arc and the continuation of my Copeland arc. Cheers! :)
