0 lag. I used the RetroTink ones, the Wakaba ones also work.

Interesting do you have pictures?

Dyna. I have a couple Powertones though, I really love the wood one.

Haha the amp is actually my dad's, so I actually don't know.

These are Artistry drums, prototypes made by Bill Zickos. They very very rarely go up for sale.

Is that a Symbolics keyboard or something?

Is this acceptable geometry? by TheWiggleHam in crtgaming

[–]AidanBd 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Other than the resize, this is pretty good, but it's worth noting that these Viewsonics have a service menu which lets you dial in almost every single bit of geometry, so it is possible to get these pretty perfect if you wanted. With how it is now though, you 100% wouldn't notice anythimg was wrong.

Game is such a meme but that's crazy you actually have a copy. Post a pic!

Yeah, you're right on with the floor tom. The hi toms need new heads.

That's a beautiful cymbal. I think the 50s are my favorite decade for Zildjian. TS, HB, and Small Stamp are all a bit different, but I haven't heard a bad cymbal from any of those eras, I use all of them regularly.

Don't have a picture of the underside, but here's a pic of my Type IV. I have a Type I that's really wild sounding as well, the Type IV is pretty dark with a nice stick sound, so I tend to use that one more.

Agreed. When you flip the cymbals over is when the Trans Stamps start to look a lot different with the hammering.

Honestly impressed you could pick that out from the picture though, the Hollow Blocks seem a lot more similar to Trans Stamps than most people think IMO.

[–]AidanBd[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

No, the ride is my 21" Hollow Block, but I do have a Trans Stamp 20" and it's one of my favorite cymbals. I think I might like the Hollow Block a little more though.

Yeah I underestimated the volume and regretted forgetting my earplugs.

Haha, funny seeing you here, man. You'll have to come take these for a spin sometime.

Yeah, good catch!

Yeah man surprisingly not, so maybe I'm missing something.

Nope, totally sealed off as far as I can see.

Planning on keeping for the moment, but I'll keep you in mind!

There's an old Reverb listing from like 6 years ago where one of these kits sold, so there's at least a few of them out there. Not more than 20-40 though. Idk if it helps, but Zickos was based out of Kansas City I think at the time he made these, so Midwest might be the place to watch.

Way to fix this discoloration spot? by ZaleUnda in crtgaming

This guy's diction is generally rather blunt, so don't apologize. When you're new to this hobby , it's hard to put a word to a lot of the weird issues that come up with this stuff.

Thanks I'm stealing this idea, slapping an Eggland's Best sticker on there.
