It actually sounds quite amazing. I'm not a drummer myself but I wish the sample industry would capture this particular sound already. The snare and the bd I'm hearing is exactly what I need.
Nice man! Think that’s my favorite overall hybrid/cocktail set I’ve seen so far. I love the range of size and timbre available. That floor Tom is definitely beefy. However, really nice contrast with the snare and high-tom. I suggest some VF Peter erskin ride sticks. Keep rocking! Thanks for sharing….
You could try to seperate the tom and the bass. Some people will cut some wood to fit into it and seperate the floor tom from the bass. I don't know how much that would improve the sound.
Hey, any more info on how to switch up the bass pedal? Your setup inspired my, just got home with a mounted side snare and have this 16" floor tom, just can't rig the pedal.. Thanks!
Hello, I love that snare-- actually, the entire set sounds great. I've been searching for a cocktail kit . I love the way yours looks with the wood showing. Is there any way you'd consider selling this kit? I am very interested in purchasing. Please do consider and write back. Thank you ~
This kit has been dismantled, the floor Tom was sold off, the snare is on my niece’s kid drum set. I still have the 8” swingstar Tom. The last configuration of this kit had a pearl M80 snare and a 14x15’ swingstar Tom as the bass/floortom.
Hey man, checking out your kit and just converted my 16 inch floor tom. Can't seem to find the lp brackets that you used to mount your snare and tom.. Do you know there exact name?
Simon Dewar they are the arms from the LP mini everything rack. On the bass drum pedal the chain drive has to face you, and the beater goes into the bottom. I should make a video.
To be honest, from the looks I wasn't that impressed and didn't expect too much. Most similar video's online show awfull executions. This things sound impressed me a lot. Well done!
It's tough to tune the floortom sound because you have to contend with the bass drum half sounding good as well. I always opt for a better kick tone rather than the floortom.
