This reminds me of an interview with Alex Van Halen when he spoke about the first Van Halen album, that he expected his drums to be all lively and resonant as John Bonham, but producer Ted Templeton took off all the rezos and placed duct tape all over the batter heads. He hated how dead and crappy his drums sounded in the studio, and his overall experience was negative. It wasn't until years later that another drummer came up to him about his drumming on their debut, and Alex was getting ready to apologise about how terrible his drums sounded, but before he said anything, the other drummer exclaimed how it was such an inspiration to him, about how much he loved his performance and how the drums sounded. Alex said this statement stunned him so much, that all he could say was thank you. He remarked how this meeting changed his whole perspective on that recording session.

@ER-yq1lc 2 года назад

I think a lot of the inspiration for the 70s sound came from Hal Blaine and his giant fiberglass concert tom set up. He put that kit together after liking the sound he got from a smaller set with Gretsch timbales for toms. I have a '68 Ludwig "Carioca" kit, a 5 pc. with timbale toms, it does the earlier wrecking crew timbale sound well, but I like to use it with CS dot heads and tea towels clipped with the mic clips and a Standard snare for that thuddy 70's studio sound. It's also great for the Ringo "rooftop" thing, that's probably where most people started hearing that type of sound, that '68 natural kit, ringo may have got the idea to remove the bottom heads from Hal. On the flipside, I've spent a good bit of money replacing missing hardware restoring old kits that had the bottom heads removed and stayed that way since the 70's. In the old punk rock days it sure made it easier to pack drums around when you could nest them inside each other with only batterside heads and cheaper too with only one head to replace. Corky Laing of Mountain was another early timbale tom guy.

@crlaw75 2 года назад

John Densmore of The Doors would also remove the bottom heads, as early as '67. The Funk Brothers (Motown studio band), their drummers sometimes took the bottoms off sometimes.

This series of drums through the decades is great, I love this series. Both from an entertainment perspective, but also practical: I’m looking to reduce my stage volume, or rather sonic footprint, and some of the 60s and 70s muffled, dry sounds work well. It’s a much nicer way to keep a full, fat sound and giving space to vocals, without resorting to super quiet playing, killing all fullness and getting a thin sound. Again, loving his series, I found it very inspiring for developing my own sound!

Hey guys! Love this channel. I've learned more from all these videos than 20+ years of acquiring "tribal" knowledge etc on my own. Speaking on the "70's sound", with the increase of popularity of acrylic drums in the last decade or so, could you guys consider doing a video about tuning acrylic drums? I've learned tuning these can be tricky. Any tips, tricks, advice whatsoever would be awesome! I'm sure there are more folks out there that would agree. You guys rock! Keep doing what you're doing.

Great stuff again guys! About the concert toms. Very much enjoy that sound. Short but deep. I find that it sounds a lot like the way i like my toms sound, coated double sided with external muffling.

@TsunamiBeefPies 2 года назад

The 70s was when I bought my first kit (Ludwig "Hollywood" in Gold Sparkle), which is still most of my kit today. All of the time that I ever made any money from playing, I played with no reso heads on the toms or the kick. (In fact, somehow over the years I lost track of the hoop and hardware for my bass drum reso, much to my chagrin.) It sure did make my drums sound LOUD. My technique was pretty primitive in those days, so the sound fit what i was doing pretty well. Nowadays, as a happy hobbyist, I would never play that way again. I like the tones that reso heads give my drums too much, not to to mention the rebound. Another great entry in this series. Thanks!

Very cool episode. A few years ago, I picked up some '70s Ludwig concert toms with the little metal protector around the bottom edge and a severely damaged '60s bass drum shell where the reso side was totally unusable. The finishes nearly matched. The toms were from a larger concert toms kit. All I did was put some floor tom legs on the 16" inch, and for next to nothing, I had a really vibey '70s 13, 16, 22 concert tom kit. It's super fun to play and the sound engineers love it when I use it on gigs.

@christophersmay4508 2 года назад

Yeah this is a rad one guys and you really did nail it. It is that 70s sound, and oddly it's the sound we were all seemingly chasing even into the 80s, trying to play hard stuff influenced by growing up on all those records made in the 70s, like Black Sabbath, etc. Matter of fact, I was just looking at footage from the US Festival in 1983 and almost all the metal bands were playing setups without bottom heads. The new wave bands not so much with all the Simmons pads and rototoms! Can't wait for your take on the 1980s with all it's variations.

I had a CB700 in the early 90's and I used an open rack tom mainly because I couldn't get a good sound with both heads because I was a newbie, I have a practice recorded on cassette and it sounds huge. I used Pinstripes on all the drums except the Snare.

@vanhunsberger4192 2 года назад

rogers used to have a thing called a "hoop spacer" that was kind of s shaped and let you have the bottom hoop attached to the drum without a head. solved the rattle problem and still gave you the appearance of a bottom hoop.

If you have time, you can take the lug off and put in the lug a little peace of feltbubber in between the spring will stop the rattle in that lug....For muffin the drum take a sponge cut in 2" peace or 3 inches take tape rap it up on the edge take another peace of tape on it to the rim and the take a little bit of water on the sponge will dampen it and if it is to much squeeze it out. Remember it will bounce up and down to dampen it to your liking 👍

@lorenznew2208 2 года назад

I totally love the sound of those toms! Do they project well?

@mcovey2020 2 года назад

They do tend to be louder initially cuz all the air moves out of the shell instantly. What little sustain they have tho doesn’t really get heard over the mix without help from mics. It’s cool, but sometimes you want just *a little* more sustain and you just can’t get it.

@beckerzineo 2 года назад

Today I had mount a 12' tom and I had only the batter head at first, it sounded pretty good to me already, then I put the resonant, and having watched that video from yours about resos killing the sound, I tried tuning it really low, it had this "thunderous" chaotic sound. I kinda liked it, but the reso sounded so low it was resonating with the floor tom and having a weird "double sound" (I tuned the batter a bit high). I changed it to be really tight, like a snare reso, but then it sound super thin and shitty. Ultimatelly, I tuned it similar to the batter, but a bit lower, it gave it some nice sustain, fine on the 12', but my floor tom was tuned similarly and was resonating too much, I had to muffle it for it to be in par with the other tom. I think removing the resos can be dope mostly for carrying drums inside each other and only having to buy batter heads lol (mine are cheap that came with the drums, the resos are pretty bad, the kick one was wrinkled and shit, but it's an 18' kick and I'm recording with only one mic, so I want as much kick as I can get, therefore I'm afraid to remove it lol, it's tuned how I want it now)

@frankstone919 2 года назад

Yeah you got a nice sound going there. I'm a terrible drummer but , drummers like my cheap Tama Imperialstar drumkit. I usually don't play it. LOL Heck they even like the cheap Mienl HCS cymbals that came with the kit. I've got Remo Control Sound Black Dot's on the ride toms 12" , 13" and 16" floor tom. On the bottoms I have Pearl Mesh heads. No reso's. We just play them here in my home studio. I keep a front head on the bass drum though with , a hole cut for a mic. The shell is too thin and the Tama accu tune bass drum hoops are some kind of plastic. So even if I used hoop spacers (really expensive) , I'm afraid it would be too flexible. A friend of mine has a big pillow in his bass drum , both heads on it no mic hole. His bass drum sounds great and it has a good bounce on the beater. I mic his from outside the front head. Before I'd buy a mesh head for the bass drum I'd buy another solid head. There's something about the beater bounce that would make me go that way. The hole cut for the mic , really isolates the bass drum track , for recording though. "Hoop Spacers" ? That was something from the 70's I guess. They were made of aluminum and you put them right where the lug goes. If you drop a tom without the rim on it , you'll know why you need em. I had some on my old Londoner 5 kit. The mesh heads are cheaper and will keep the inside of the drum clean. Also you wouldn't want to dent the bearing edge on the reso side of the shell. Here I'm rambling on and I'm a really terrible drummer. I know a few good ones.

I am 73 and started playing in highschool band in 1960 and have lived through many changes in the drums but held true to the open big sound of a great drum sound. Most of these changes came about from kids seeing someone on tv playing with heads on or off or full of pillows and thought this is the way to do it and not knowing what the hell they were doing themselves. Stick to a good sound out front and not what sounds good in your face and you will get manny compliments that is if you are any good. I remember seeing keith richards on ed sullivan playing satisfaction with a piece of paper stuck under his bridge and everyone was trying to get that sound only for all to find out it was a fuzz tone box so stick with the real drum sound and it will carry you a long way down the road like me.

You need to put your reso heads back on, I can here the lugs rattling on the bottom toms and bass drum. Just because you take bottom heads off does not make it concert toms. The rattling from the lugs is definitely irritating. Put the heads back on.

Or we could tape the lugs. Or we could cut the centers out of the resos. This is just an experiment… Thanks for watching.
