I have db1 on my kit, and I swapped all the resos to remo fiberskyns & it sounds really good. a lot more body & depth. tuning the resos & experimenting with different types can get some awesome tones out of the db1 heads.
I also run a Roland SPD 30 & triggers, so I have a really good & flexible set up for practice & recording.
great information ! I will immediately order a set, you have convinced me !!
It would be great if Evans had 3 ply mesh heads for the edrummers looking for quiet head with normal mylar rebound.
Love u guys at Art of Drumming!!!!
I just won a DB1 rock pack and plan to install them on my practice kit. Really looking forward to their arrival.
You guys are amazing keep it up and you should do A video for Motley Crue
Have a set of Evans DB-Ones and Zildjian L80s in the mail. Can’t wait.
Were they any good?
Would like to hear how it will compliment with DB1 cymbals
Hey Maurice, there are a bunch of videos on our Evans channel where you can hear those alongside the heads - Anup Sastry did a really nice comparison of regular heads/cymbals vs dB One for us that includes the cymbals.
How about 16” db one ton mesh head as a 16” kick mesh head?
Ah should have played the db0 on the kick too :P
Hello, does this go together with the hybrid percussion system?
wie cool ist das denn
Do you happen to also have experience with the Rtom LV heads? They're almost twice as less expensive and I'm looking for some opinions vs the Evans.
Yall should make a drums sound video on lynyrd skynyrd
I really wonder if it's working great with triggers, because if the feel is good and it's quiet as in the clip, playing real acoustic drums with triggered samples with those heads would be awesome. Anyone is doing that? Nice video btw. Thanks guys
Hey there, Moritz of Evans Germany here :-)
Both dB Zero and dB One work with triggers. The additional tone of the dB One heads doesn’t affect how the mostly 2-zone triggers work and they do have the benefit that you can actually put a mic on them if you want to amplify the acoustic sound rather that use samples.
I have a kit with db1 & triggers, works great
@@Moredrums thanks for your help, I'll set up a kit like this it sounds like the best of both worlds for me.
@@cdwizzerd awesome! Thanks for your insight. I'll go for it ;)
I would consider them, but the DB one series doesn't come in 8" model.
Hey there, Moritz of Evans Germany here. When we developed the dB One series we did try to get the same effect that we achieved out of sizes 10“ and bigger but with the foam and the impact patch - even in smaller sizes - it didn‘t get a result that we felt was on the same level of sound quality. The air that needs to be moved through the shell by the batter head to make the resonant head produce the actual tone was either not enough with smaller foam or if the foam was larger the dampening effect was too strong having the opposite effect. Many drummers we spoke to actually felt the regular dB Zero worked better with the resonant head tuned up higher than you normally would playing acoustically (as we also recommend for the dB One heads).
Hope this helps!
Moritz
kinda of pointless when you're using normal cymbals wouldn't you say lol
You know who this is but you didn't know Dom Famularo, why?
My question is how long will these heads last? What’s the lifespan of one of these heads?? ?? if you’re playing with the proper technique what is their endurance ratio or their endurance factor?
Hey Neal, Moritz of Evans Germany here :-)
Single Ply mesh heads usually have a decent but not overly long lifespan. Most of them including our dB Zero heads last longer than a regular 1-Ply head as it’s not really about hitting it super hard when you’re using them to quiet down your kit. There’s no coating to wear out either and you don’t need to tension it as much as the rebound is a little higher anyway as Andy described in the video. They can and eventually will break especially if you hit them harder than necessary but from my experience working in a drum department before joining Evans that shouldn’t happen within the first year or even the first two (your mileage may vary). I wouldn’t recommend beating the crap out of them with 2B sticks though ;-)
As for the dB Ones the impact patches do add durability to what I just described but on the other hand you do get more tone out of them which also changes your playing style a bit. That being said I’d generally say Mesh heads need less replacing as with acoustic heads you change them more often due to the tuning getting unstable and the Film wearing out rather than them actually ripping. With the appropriate adjustment of your playing to fit the low volume theme, they should last you quite a bit. You can actually mic the dB Ones and use headphones / an Inear system with them - I’d highly recommend dong that as you’ll automatically hit less hard and extend their lifespan while getting a better sound at the same time!
@@Moredrums : understood! Thanks so much for the info will try the snare drum head first. Thanks again! The drum
@@nealsausen4651ive gone hard on mine for over 6 months and they are still in great shape
