    It's amazing how Rick re-trained his mind to do this, accolades.

      @johnbenard9550 4 роки тому +9

      He’s lucky that his accident did not happen a few years earlier or a comeback would not have been possible. A lot of credit is owed to Pete Harley, who designed Ricks’ first electronic kit when Midi was new in the mid 80’s, and encouraged him to play and assured him it would be possible with one arm.

    Rick Allen is like the Darth Vader of drummers, and his kit is the suit.

  • @skadooch64

    As a long time drummer myself. I could not imagine having to rewire my brain and all the muscle memory it took to learn to play with one arm. Rick is a stud 😎🤘

  • @sanjuanaudio
    @sanjuanaudio 11 років тому +17

    Ok, the kick drum pedal is an Axis pedal with a custom footplate and a DW beater (Rick digs the weight of them). On that particular tour, the kick head was a Powerstroke 3 and the trigger was a Hart Dynamics modded ddrum (far more accurate and durable than the off the shelf ddrum triggers). The snare is a 13x5.5 (could be a 5) steal Yamaha snare (Rick's a Yamaha endorsee, so the kick is a Yamaha as well). For Cymbals, the crashes are 18 and 19" Zildjian Hybrid crashes (most of the time).

  • @StudioDaVeed
    @StudioDaVeed 5 років тому +4

    Rick said recently on the Howard Stern show....that because his kit needs to be exactly positioned the same each and every time, the whole thing is mounted on a steel plate and boxed/moved/trucked intact.

    • @wolfgang548
      @wolfgang548 3 роки тому +7

      I saw that interview. I like the part where he says they put a cover over the kit for transport and sometimes they leave him in there. lol.

    I'm not a musician or a drummer, but I have to live like Rick, being that I can only use my left arm/hand as with him he uses his right side. Good job Rick for doing all you've been able to do

    Thanks again Jeff for the specs on the kit. I started playing drums because of Rick back in 1982. Ive also met him at a Meet & Greet back in 2006 with Journey. Im also recreating Rick's Chrome Ludwig set from the Pyro Tour. Again, thanks.- Don

  • @drewper73
    @drewper73 5 років тому +3

    Kudos to Rick Allen for not giving up. That would've been so easy to do. "I'm a one-armed drummer. How the hell am I going to continue playing?" But thanks to ddrum who first helped him out if I'm not mistaken, and thanks to the other guys in the band for sticking with him, no pun intended. I saw Def Leppard on the Hysteria tour in 1988 and I watched Rick 90% of the time because I'm a drummer and I wanted to see how he did it live. Very impressive and I'm sure he's only gotten better since then.

  • @johnnyutah1983

  • @sanjuanaudio
    @sanjuanaudio 11 років тому +4

    Regarding the sampling, all of the drum sounds you hear out front (or on stage) are created by Rick and the band's producer/foh engineer. Some are pulled from original recordings, other's created to suit the live environment.

  • @sanjuanaudio

    ...the ride is a 20" K medium ride. Rick is very particular about the cymbal tones and will audition 20 or more pairs to find a set of crashes that he likes. The hats are all 13" Zildjians. It would be impossible to tell you what is up there on any given day as each "set" is is mixed up to get a similar tone across all four pairs.

  • @stickssb

      Bigrj 91 If he really wanted it, he would have done that already... The reason for him decide not to do this is his choice or, for technical reasons, it's not possible. Because money for that, for sure, he has!

    • @rodneylee4026
      @rodneylee4026 6 років тому +4

      Not quite. Actually there's no where near the technology for that yet. Drumming requires extreme reflexes and subtleties.

    • @paulgraves1392
      @paulgraves1392 5 років тому

      He said back in 1992 on Fighting Back that he decided against a mechanical arm because of logistical issues with the batteries and he did want to learn to rely on one.
