Title: ATTN DRUMMERS: Take and TOWELS and DUCK TAPE OFF your set!!!!
Post by: QCdrummer on February 28, 2008, 02:15:21 PM
Personally, i'd rather play on at least one tom with some kind of sound, than to play on 3 toms that sound the same with towels taped to them with them all sounding like your are hitting on a mattress.

I'm guessing alot of the beginner drummers don't know that new heads could help out the sound of drums alot and could make even the worst kits sound decent. So if your heads are all beat up, don't cover it up with a cut-up towel, change the heads!

It cuts high freqs a bit and reduces some volume.

Yeah sometimes you may have to put an inch of tape or something to help out with sound. But I'm talking about the cats who put a whole bunch of tape all on the tom, like this one I saw on this website...

YOU SHOULD NOT HAVE THIS MUCH TAPE ON YOUR SET------------------------->http://charlotte.craigslist.org/msg/587335639.html

Tampons on drumkit.  I just want you to know that I laughed out loud on that one.  Good one.  Score 2 ponts for the noob.  ;D

That is the short and long of it tho.  If cats knew how to tune their drums and select the heads to achieve the sound that they are looking for you wouldn't have that issue.

Keep looking at that monitor and you might learn a lil something, son.

Someone went WAY back!

Sidebar:

I can't for the life of me figure out how to stop this god-awful buzzing noise on my kit.  I have tried changing my snare wires.  I switched to the 95 wire snare  strainer, but that seemed to make it worse.

Any ideas J_Kay?
Title: Re: ATTN DRUMMERS: Take and TOWELS and DUCK TAPE OFF your set!!!!
Post by: j_kay on February 29, 2008, 09:38:15 PM
Ay, detune the snares to reduce the buzzing, and purchase a set of wires that has 47.5 strands on it.  That should do the trick.

...LOL.  I feel you on that one.  I recently played at a church that had a kit with a bunch of tape all over the heads.  I looked at the drummer and was about to ask him if he was sponsored by 3M. lol
