@brockbeckstedt6483 2 года назад

What products that I can look at for Hi hats foot pedals that line up with bass drum padel instead of being off to the side on its own stand so what do you suggest? Sometime that mounts to the bass drum right next to the bass drum panel so not having to sway away so far?

@ToomanyFrancis 2 года назад

This is a confusing request, but I think you might be looking for a remote hi-hat stand. Pearl Redline remote hi hat stand has removable legs and it stands up perfectly fine without the legs from my experience so you could slap it anywhere you want. You'd just need a clamp to mount the hats somewhere on your kit.

@bilhamcobbly2957 2 года назад

Hmmmm? I wonder why the best rides are sounding more like broad spectrum crashes?

@charliepreidis3004 Год назад

It’s hilarious how David always seems to underestimate himself behind the kit. Dude is the epitome of playing in the pocket and super concrete fundamentals.

@tcgtornado7396 2 года назад

Glad you had fun at Gearfest! I am hoping to go one year and be able to meet Nick D'Virgilio and you and other RU-vid drummers. After being diagnosed with Acute Flaccid Myelitis and going home from the hospital having to use a walker, I had to relearn how to play the kit with what I could do. Love your videos, and I hope I could meet you soon!

@briandrum1 2 года назад

When you're watching a rdavidr video and you randomly see one of your old drumming buddies (@11:39) overselling Zildjian because that's his job. 🤣 Side note; that K Special Dry ride sounds terrible!

@GeordicusDadicus 2 года назад

So many of those ride cymbals sounded terrible. The special dry ride sounded like a garbage can. Don't get why do many drummers rave about them. Horses for courses, I suppose.

@UPdan 2 года назад

Wish Sweetwater had a RU-vid like video site where they could make money from the advertising and I think it would be more organized and better for creators financially. Also would like to hear more about their music education division. Perhaps we should be recommending Sweetwater for education rather than a college, etc.?

i just bought a new set of drums from sweetwater, not happy. some of the hardware was stripped and the tom had a damn hole in it.

@JColeJohnson 2 года назад

Hey David…. Just want to say how much I enjoy your videos! I’m from Berkeley, CA but I now live in central France. I’ve found a fantastic drum shop in Paris….a 2.5 hour drive. Used gear is less plentiful on ebay and alott of it comes from the US and the shipping often costs more then the product. Here I have lots of space and neighbors are far enough away and they are all wine makers. Sock lay blue! Keep up the good work!

Ever restored an old Rogers kit? I had a 70's kit once. At least I think they were 70's. The Rogers logo was lettered in on size and went slightly diagonal, like cursive. They had a unique sound especially the Dynasonic snare. I believe the "big R" logo was from the 80's.

There is a grocery shop not so far away in Cincinnati called Jungle Jim’s. If it’s not there, they can get it from anywhere. Sweetwater is like the same model, fun, petting zoo, games. A great place for music addicts and the guitar tech shop is top shelf.

@lodougherty 2 года назад

rdavidr do you think you could do a video of snare tones, so some of us baddies can replicate reso tones/batter tones, to get better snare sounds. Maybe even tom sounds too? I've been trying to find good reference tones to tune my kit too and it's really hard to find.
