    This is where having variety and knowledge of your kit comes into play too. I own a Yamaha Recording custom with 10,12,13,16 and 24x18 with a 14x6.5 snare and it only comes out when the money is right. I used to use it on small gigs until a friend of mine at church said he had a Tama kit from his childhood that I should look at. 10,12,14, 18x16 kick with a 13x3.5 piccolo snare I was like yup. Whole kit minus hardware in 2 trips to the truck. It's a swing star which is not even in the ballpark of a recording custom but it's extremely easy to tune play setup and breakdown. I even played it in 2500 seat sized theater and the engineer couldn't believe the sound of the little monster.

  • @TheJokesterSCR
    @TheJokesterSCR 3 роки тому +1

    It depends on your style of playing. In my band, I utilize a lot of tom fills that require me to have as many toms as I do. To me, less drums means that you have less sounds to play with and it limits what you can do. Sure, if you play a certain style, you can make a small kit sound great. But for a guy like me, I use my cymbals to accent the guitar tones and play big long fills at times that I couldn't possibly do on a 4 piece set with only a couple cymbals. Now, my drums aren't huge in size, but my overall kit is pretty sizeable.

  • @Cyb3rSix
    @Cyb3rSix 3 роки тому +1

    As a guy who grew up in the punk rock scene, I gotta go with the smaller kit. Higher tones break through better I think, and I can't get the same tabletop tight sound from a deep snare than I can with a shallow one. With that said I've always hated how big boy toms go over the snare, I like my snare and I wanna hear it.

Taking cymbals aside it is very similar to David’s drum set in this video. As cool as lots of drums are I always think a smaller set is better. And you can be more creative on one as well.

    Oh Hell Yea!! Alright....alright.....alright.......yea small drums for gigging, and Large dimension drums for recording, personal practice, and stationary kits. My studio kit that doesn't go any where, starts with a 14"diameter X 16" deep shell floor tom, next is a 16" X 16" floor tom, and then the 18" diameter X 16" deep shell floor tom, and finally a 20" diameter X 16" deep shell floor tom. This last drum was once a Mapex kick drum but the wood hoops were swapped out for original Slingerland 20" tom rims using Remo Pinstripe tom [NOT kick drum] head. yes there is a difference and yes Remo sells both versions. My kit has a pair of 24" diameter X 16" deep kicks. this kit has a massive sound that just encompasses you with sound big massive Booming Sound ! Perfect kit for getting your work-out on! Think of the kit set up like this- two floor toms in front of my snare drum, the 18" is on my right side and the 20" is on my left side. The two kick drums are out to the sides with slave pedals to kick them with, one pedal is a left footed slave and the other pedal is a right footed slave pedal. The pedals are custom built with roller bearings and ball bearings and they use the Trick Drums Zero latency drive shafts. Great video you two put put together, definitely makes a couple of points to All drummers. Peace & Care Paco

    Big drums and drum sets are awesome until you're moving them multiple times a week and you don't have a tech. LOL. I stopped bringing my 18" floor out when I got a 14", because the sound wasn't being relayed through the PA. I could tune the 16" low enough to sound like an 18", and the 14" low enough to sound like a 14".

    Fact , large drums if tuned properly and not in the basement can actually be considerably louder than small drums tuned the same, Bonham for example did not tune extra low. He tuned for rebounce and tone. The front head on his 26 was in fact somewhat tight !! It's also why a Supraphonic tuned up can actually hurt you !! or any other 6" deep snare .

    I wouldn't mind a slightly bigger kick and the smaller set but that absolutely wins. Hands down that has more tone and clarity. Those big toms sound so muddy

    So I’m a drummer but I don’t know much as far as cymbal types, so can I ask what the cuts in the hi hat on the small set are for? Do they do anything or are they there for aesthetic?

      they kinda thin out the sound and make it more "trashy" which is a cool sound for some drummers besides also looking cool lmao
