    Nice to see a drummer interview by a guy who knows what he's talking about and isn't annoying about it. Matt really changed the game for a lot of kids aspiring to play heavy music. Innovator

    I can easily put that snare into words- shitty. 😂
    The snare wires are waaaaay too loose/ bottom head is too loose, something is going on there I don't like personally, but I imagine it may be triggering a snare sound live, at least a small mix. Maybe not. Also imagine paying $4-5,000 for dw collectors and then they sound like that. Insane. Great video!

      Huge pet peeve as a drummer. If they’re both miked, awesome. I love the sound of two separate kicks. I hate going to a show and seeing two kicks with a connecting rod peeking out from in between. What is the point of hiding what your other leg is doing behind a dummy kick?!

      Most common way this happen is if your snare wires happen to have a piece of a wire sticking out that punctures the head.

      Been doing it for years. Makes my kit balanced looking and doubles the wow factor. As a performer live people go SEE a band play. One kick to mix, one mic to buy, less $100 drumheads to buy, Guitarists line up full stacks up and down the stage and mic one speaker since forever.
