🔥🔥🔥🔥 Proud to have Aaron behind Ludwig Drums. He does a great job showcasing the rich tone available in Legacy Maple series drums and with Copperohonic Snares.

I’ve probably watched this video 20 times in the last 3 days. I just can’t get over how incredible these drums sound. Especially the snare. Is that a copper phonic?
And the stellar sound production/mix quality. Folk often forget that they're listening to highly controlled sound design and not actual unfiltered drums.
Fairly recent switch. He was with DW, but then switched to Sonor. Thought he'd be with them forever to be honest, as they seemed a really good fit for them, especially with Chris Coleman being very similar in style...
@@Obi-Wan81 From the little i understand of it, sonors artist support is not the best, especially for drummers who do a lot of clinics. I could be wrong, but thats what ive heard from drum forums over the years, so who knows.
@@kevinb8527 When Todd Sucherman signed with Sonor, he was touring with Styx right after John Panozzo died. Every kit that he had from Sonor, he bought. He had to wait 7 months for hardware due to HHM’s and Sonor’s incompetence.
YT always has a trucked balance with the audio & video through the snare beat audio comin’ through awn the high hat beat audio if that makes any sense for those into some serious music study.
Those first 30 seconds looked so awkward for him to play. I’ve always wanted to see amazing drummers have a competition of who can keep a straight beat with zero fills the longest.
Dude sounds the same no matter what he plays. Here’s to musicians practicing more and being concerned about gear less. I wonder how the music instrument industry would change if the focus was on quality playing and less on trying to trick kids into buying overpriced instruments.
I hear you on that. He's an amazing talent. He does sound consistent on what ever brand he endorses. With that being, his drums sound pretty dead. Just my opinion. Not a big fan.
@@frankspikes7858 absolutely Aaron is a great player! Sounds like the drum buss compressor has a faster attack and slower release than I might use. Drums sound muddy, lack punch and overall sound dull. Some compression tweaks could fix that.
RIP Aaron. You inspired so many of us with your infectious passion for this instrument.

I don’t know
I'm glad he's with Ludwig !! He looks right at home
Love the snare, despite having a preference for wood snares (love tuning my Ludwig Bubinga snare low, my vented Spaun Maple snare high).
Your drums are great! I think it would be bebefitial for You to speak more like a person and less like a corporation ) Cheers
Rest In Power!!! You will be missed!
Heaven surely need a great drummer to have a glorious jam
Yes he is so cool
Oh yea
I grew up watching your videos and learning about your music, we will miss you 💔
RIP to the GOAT man 😥😥
I still can’t believe Aaron gone man…he was 1 of my favorite drummers! & from what I hear just 1 of the greatest humans ever. 😢 rest in paradise 🙏🏾
Phenomenal!!! Solid meat and potatoes groove with the sensitive touch on the cymbals at the end! You killed it!
Te vamos a extrañar aaron😢
De los mejores🙏🏻
Drums sound great! Esp the toms. I love the controlled resonance/nice sustain. Makes u wanna hit them so much more often.
RIP a LEGEND 🔥🔥🔥🙏🏽
Astonishing kit. Phenomenal drummer.

RIP young man..

It's a little bit the drums and LOT O' BIT the drummer.
@@Dave-lr2wo 50/50 when you have an incredible drummer playing incredible drums.
For me it‘s also the typical REMO CS sound
And the stellar sound production/mix quality. Folk often forget that they're listening to highly controlled sound design and not actual unfiltered drums.
@@error.delete4945yup
Very warm tones
Miss you on that DW kit! Something about that dw sound that brought out your style
More talent than I have!😊
Dw, Sonor, Ludwig, and then? He,he... genius, Aaron !! 😎🫡
Nice Breeze🔥
So cold
Rest in peace, Aaron Spears.
Fora da curva mundial dos bateras🎉
It has been a 1yr. Since your passing really miss you DRUMMER BOY❤❤
Clean 🧼
Amazing. what a great loss. is theoriginal track available anywhere?
Hey bro clean on everything!!!
solid!
🖤
His cymbals sound incredible especially those Crashes. What was he playing that day guys??
wow
I didn't know Aaron switched over to Ludwig. Rest in power brother
RIP you will be missed
❤❤❤❤
Yeah.
Infectious love of drumming, smooth and solid.
Is that a Ludwig snare?
Yeah it’s a Copperphonic model snare in a raw patina finish with die-cast hoops.
We need a gear rundown:
Cymbals
Drums
Skins (Drumheads)
Hardware...
The works!!
True
I know that ride is his signature articulation ride - and the hi hats are a prototype of that exact ride
Zildjian articulation hi hat?
I've seen him playing them in another video, too. Wondering when they're going to let the public know about them.
@@jeremyfoster9430 donno... sounds like K custom special dry hats to me.
Yea I’ve seen the Articulation series in a ride, crash cymbals, but this is the first time I see them as hats
rest in peace idol😢
What are the hi hats? Sig ones like the ride
@sweetwater can you share his Zildjian set up?
Mantap bro, Untuk Variasi ketukannya
Those look like zildjian’s version of the Matt garstka Meinl equillibrium hats and sound similar too
RIP Aaron 😢
aaroooon
What is the cymbal setup?
RIP.
Just found out from Eric Tam Tam . RIP you did it right.
Where can I find this track? It sounds fire!
Amazing performance as always by Aaron! How long has he been playing Ludwig? I thought he was a Pearl artist, can't remember.

What is that Zildjian in the Ride position?
RIP
Super talented, but in a very short amount of time he’s been with DW, then Sonor, and now Ludwig
I’ve heard Sonor’s tour support isn’t great. Could just be that he needed a company that would back him up on the road better.
@@supraphonic88The fiasco that happened between Sonor and Todd Sucherman is evidence that their tour support is unbearable to even stomach.
@@drummeralbertrivera9577 Oh I hadn’t heard about that one. What happened?
@@supraphonic88they seem to treat Danny Carey well 😂
@@kevinb8527 When Todd Sucherman signed with Sonor, he was touring with Styx right after John Panozzo died. Every kit that he had from Sonor, he bought. He had to wait 7 months for hardware due to HHM’s and Sonor’s incompetence.
Rip aaron😔
How’s he doing?
Id rather watch this than 90% of rhe stuff at Glastonbury
sheesh!
This is not the Pro Beat that Aaron is playing in the video.
Why doesn't Sweetwater sell the one that Aaron is playing, this 5 piece ?
whats the thing Aaron has on the top of the snare drum, looks like padlock? is it some muffing/muting thing? thx
What is that ride
:( R.I.P Aron

he looks like Dennis lately
his arm movement is what makes him special
The kit sounds so dry and dark 🥵
Anyone notice his new moustache?😂😂 looks good tho
Cool video, but in the future point a camera at the drummer's foot so we could see the footwork.
HOLD up what are those hats???
Why the click?
He switched drum companies again?! 😂
That's crazy
Yeah, that sucks
What's next. ?
Y’all are pure evil!
jd for jermain dupreeeeeeeeeeeee
Very sad for him and Sonor
