Streaming REAL Drums is VERY HARD TO DO. 

My body is ready for that ride, but my wallet isn’t.

The car ride editing was MINT 😂 we really don’t want to laugh at your misery but this was funny

it blows my mind how good the quality of your stream is, i honestly don't think there is a better looking stream out there

The 'there's not a single device with double AA's in this room' is so relatable, I've lost count on how many times that happened to me As always, love the vlogs and the streams. I can't comment on the cymbals cause I don't know shit about drums but the video quality - I am a video editor - is 100/10 😍

When Craig said “i might have done it” I felt that deeply and it resonated with me 😂

So fucking excited for your ride. I really hope there isn’t a limited quantity

Yo I've watched passively for a couple of years now, but the last couple of months I've really started to love your channel man. Thanks so much for this video!

Hey Craig, I appreciate videos like this one a lot since I am new to Live Streaming drums as well...so it is always nice to see what other drummers are doing. Anyway, take care brah!

You look like the guy that I hated in high school but you're also the most chill dude with the best vibes so maybe that dude in high school wasn't such a bad egg.

Props to you Craig! I wanted to do a YT Drum cover channel as a teenager, now in my 30's and can grasp the genuine challenge that doing all this yourself is - all of that troubleshooting, set up etc. and then be able to take a breath and switch roles to playing your very best in the next moment is a serious undertaking, always appreciate your genuine approach, all the best!

Hilarious and also real AF. Mate, your live studio setup walk through was eye opening like cutting onions in a bathroom. You’ve got $35k in gear in that rig. Makes sense why it sounds so good. Great vid.

struggle is real, dude. nice set up, thanks a lot for the video

I had a 2000's Z Custom Crash and China. That china is STILL one of my favorites of all time!

"lemme me know if you want me to leave this plane" -craig you are always hilarious craig 🤣😂🤣

Killing it with the lighting and the color grades! Thank you for showing how your audio and video mix works. Massive gold nugget of information for FREE.

Battery tip for ya, if you're ever in a pinch again you can just place some aluminum foil on the ends of your AAA battery and use it for a AA slot

Loving this style of vlog, cool to see the set up but the format of this was a pleasure to watch. Keep it up man!

Oh man, i TOTALLY feel you- every damn time I hit the studio there are few things having issues. It's a damn curse- Last time (last week) a 13 minutes video was all done, 4 takes for that, Mac could not recognise one card, so I did put that back in the Go Pro to check what was going on, but no chance- I took the card from the slot and bam! it just broke in two pieces!

Thanks for all the hard work you put in your content. It makes me feel miniscule and motivated at the same time 🤗

You're looking at these MINOR inconveniences all wrong. They're part of the process and you're in a unique position like you said being a kid dreaming of being able to afford the Zs, now getting them free, as well as Evans heads and I take it Tama drums as well. Not taking away from all the hard work you've done, but making sure everything works is part of the process and I wish you could take a second and be grateful to be in the position you're in. I'm jealous of all the free gear and getting to play drums and do drum related things all day as a job. A majority of all my time not spent at work is spend playing drums. Love your stuff Craig, keep your head up and don't sweat the small stuff brother. Much respect.

I learn so much from these kind of videos...please keep it up!

Crikey Reynlord- what an absolute quest! Relatable too. Great video, well played getting through it. Set up sounds ace!

Since you're multi-miking your drums : Don't forget to check for phase issues in your drum mix (that polarity switch on each channel is your friend).

This was awesome....and for your troubles I have now subscribed lol. Amazing set up

Thanks for trekking through the land of inconveniences to bring us the best quality, every time.

Dude streaming drums is alot of moving parts! 🥵 I have a similar dual PC setup with my audio running through a second interface into the video PC. Your drums sound clean asf! 🔥

Much enjoyed watching the struggle, way to power through. Cymbal sounds absolutely killer.

this is fascinating! thanks for sharing this

Please don’t leave this planet!!! In all seriousness, thank you for going into the technical details of high quality drum streaming. It’s something I want to do, so you sharing your knowledge for free is wildly appreciated. People should LIKE COMMENT AND SUBSCRIBE!!! Also I can’t wait to hear that new mega bell 👀

Love you man! So stoked to see things going well for!!

great video as always! Cheers from Uzbekistan! ^_^

You seem to be very meticulously setting up everything and you have a great sound! One idea: you go from a very high quality analog out to a last tier analog in of your onboard sound from the motherboard. This should suffice, but you could go digital via spdif or maybe via network. In Reaper (DAW) there is a pipe plugin which sends any kind of sound signal over network in real-time and the target would be another pipe plugin which receives the sound vie network. As it uses TCP/IP, it doesn’t matter where in the world the receiving computer is based. Maybe Logic has something else. I would check if your motherboard has a Toslink or coaxial digital in for SPDIF.

That stream set up looks like a nightmare to put together

More of anything and everything. Love all your vids. Especially love seeing you out and about doing mundane tasks hah. More!

Fucking love your work , thank you for the content and the hard work you put into your videos , your sound ! All of the above my dude 🙏

You deserve all the love in the world And a good pump at the gym 💪

Fair play for showing us your setup in detail! Much appreciated!🖕

Those crashes sound VERY close to the A Custom Projections.

Hang in there brother. It's worth it.

Dude so excited for you! New kit also around the corner too bro. 🖤⚡️🖤

you're the real deal man!

This was some good shit, I love getting gear nerdy

We need a left hand cam, cause it's 🔥

everyone be on the lookout for Craig’s new film “To Kill A Supermarket” coming to a cinema near you

phenomenal

Ponying up for a nice rechargable keyboard changed my streaming life.

lmao what an absolutely gripping tragedy

The past tense of troubleshoot is troubleshat.

The Albignoni Adagio as a backing audio is a real great choice!! I never believe that a Hard Core Drummer will set that music on his video and i guess you choose it to describes your shit luck situation!!! Hope you stand it and be more lucky the next time dude!!!

Thanks for the streaming info Craig! Ive been struggling to get started myself

Its refreshing to see someone else in the world with similar luck to my own lol

CRAIG THE GOAT REYNOLDS

Really enjoyed the vlog, would love it if you made more

Cant wait to see / hear them in action man!

More jamming videos pls! That ride tho Sounds juicy af

I honestly would have just taking the batteries from the gas station. what's she going to do, Chase me?

Wowza! Never thought I'd see you play heavy cymbals like that.

I had a shit day and watching you also have a shit day made me laugh my ass off. Also, love the insight to how you bring the streams to live. Tight vid!

Nothing to add but a thank you. So, seriously, thank you!

Edit: the one time a rubbish drawer would have saved the day. My girl holds onto all sorts of bullshit in it. Also, you'd think that chick would have idk not come into work if she couldn't do her job. What a fucking journey this ride endeavor has been for you brotha'. You deserve that custom and more. ❤❤❤.

Ride sounds good, so does the china. The crashes and hats might as well be Meinl Classics Custom.

"I can't afford a table" 😂

Thank you for this superb breakdown homie!!! 🖤⚡️🖤

The 5k joke was good.

I still have a full OG Z Custom set except for the chinah.

I LITERALLY SAID.. " CHECK THE BATTERIES CRAIGGGGG!!!"

we need more vlogs

Craig please keep these videos up

It's "Trouble-shat", Craig 3:25

Interested to hear your "crashable megabell" i usually go for a sheet of iron with a bell on it kinda ride when i reach over there.

"a gaahsss stayshun"

BABE WAKE UP NEW CREG VLOG (with the ACAB runtime) JUST DROPPED

Hope u bought bulk Behind the scenes is great to see Where can I buy the evans lessons??

You've got great content Craig. Batteries are the devil.

Do you still have to adjust the video at all for latency, or with this rig does both audio and video come in right in sync? Thanks dude!!

So where can I plug them in on my Roland kit?

How long til this ride is in production? I need that shit post-haste.

lets get this man a plaque!! 💜💜

Setup goes crazy

Oh yeah, more VLOG!

Love ya

Buy yourself some rechargeable batteries and the plug , really pisses me off when my mouse dies when am in the shed drumming 🤣, never mind having to drive to the shops !

finally see your setup mannnn

The double knee replacement killed me

11:12 Louis does not approve

Top video.

Cheeky getting the play time to exactly 13:12. 👀

Never been this early, great video as always 💪🏻💪🏻🔥

Great vlog 🤟

Thanks for doing cool shit dude!

Commenting my drum set up fee (ty Craig)

Run it up.

fantastic video, that's all I have to say.

Craig is the fucking greatest

Thanks for that entertaining bit of videography, mate! Which snare heads do you use? You probably mentioned that in a million videos before, but what can I say - lazy ass drummer here (guiltyyyy...) 😅 Cheers mate

The part about the knee surgery is insaaaaaaaaaane,what are the chances. I would go insane at that point.
