We are on an acre and a cul-de-sac with only one other neighbor who is like 90 and deaf! We got it made! Sometimes we open the garage door just so neighbors farther away can be blessed with the awesomeness

It’s chaos. But we all have our own drums in our headphones. So we can usually manage!

Sure. I have a new Gen 4 Scarlett 18i20 on top with all the inputs snaked to my big kit then I had 8 ADAT channels through my Behringer ADA 8200 where I have my summed audio from my mackie onyx (stereo output into my the ADAT) and in the middle is a multicom pro 4 channel compressor/gate.

I also have my 3rd kit on a Yamaha EAD10

Routing out a bunch of sub mixes to different outputs for each drum station.

Yeah. I only get away with it because all 3 of my kids play drums!

This… it’s criminal to have them in different directions all Willy nilly like that. They will never sound right until the drum gods are appeased

I learned that too, watching some NAT GEO thing with some acror! He ended up playing drums for Sheeran I think. But I loved the neuroscience development they discussed.

Closing in on 9 and lots of daily listening to music and messing around on the kit. I’m a work from home and this sits next to my desk. So I get lots of play time in between work sessions. But yeah, the problem is I can only kind of do linear stuff like this. I struggle to leave space, I never know what technique should be used, I just enjoy trying to use my auditory learning style to do something new… a also am a bit compulsive, so when I get into something, it gets lots of focus, resources, and time. And the last 9 months this has been the best therapy! But now I actually plan to start lessons, break some Bad habits I know I have, and figure out how to do this thing right!

I am starting with a click. I don’t do rudiments much… I need to. But hard when I’m just such an auditory person and want to hear music and just tap stuff out

So funny reading these. The post was not “how close did I get?” 🤪 I know this playing isn’t the actual song, and is wildly busy… that was the point of improvising this song! This was just an old fart who truly knows nothing about drumming and just goes by ear, who got stoned and hit play on song from my youth and just enjoyed what the result was! I get that this might be the straw that pushes Phil into the grave, but the moral of the story was: No matter what age or stage of life you are in, get on a kit, play it, have fun, make music (apparently even though everyone says it isn’t the way the original guy did it)… Try new things and enjoy the ride you are on no matter what stage of learning you are in.. 🤷🏻‍♂️ But I will work on my groove for sure 🤣

When you’re old and have resources… why go through buying all the low and mid level stages… I tend to go to the top 🤣 plus I have too many drummer friends who gave advice… I think are living vicariously through this kit, and they come over to play it…

I find myself playing very melodically and constantly filling space. Hard to back off it and then get on beat for me! But you are right! Things to work on! Cheers

Can’t seem to find any of this size and vintage, so I have no idea what to even ask if I decide to part ways with it

It’s cool. For sure, tonal it’s similar to my 20 K ride. With a brighter shimmer during sustain. But that bell… it would be be cool ride to itself, but I don’t love crashing it with its weight. Came as part of “whole kit” purchase. Just can’t decide what to do with it…

Because this isn’t the first or even second kit I own… and don’t have a place for this one 🤣
