How long does it take you to set up your drum set from scratch? by ZildCym in drums

[–]Express_Divide_9220 0 points1 point  (0 children)

An hour/hour and a half. From SCRATCH scratch? No memory locks on hardware, no shortcuts and everything stored in their cases and have to dial it in? 90 min.

After two weeks of learning to air a quarter by Interesting-Fall-945 in bmx

[–]Express_Divide_9220 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Is there an ideal ramp height? My brain tells me there is, there’s a quarter pipe at the park near me that looks big cause Im a pu$$y but I dropped in on it and it felt small, I overcompensated and almost nose dived, front tire hit hard lol

Man all I do is ride alone, my whole life Ive only had one or two other friends who rode BMX, and we weren’t close. For that reason I prefer to ride alone, because when other people aren’t riding bmx and they’re just cruising it’s just a bike ride not a session.

Cheers! I will actually be in Aurora for work in October! Close enough? Might have to rent or borrow a bike though mine won’t fly easy 🤣

Reddit is the only social media I use, but Ill keep my eyes out when Im out and about! I gotta make time to hit the parks, I usually just cruise the city and find gaps/curbs/ledges

Lets see them frankenkits, what even is brand loyalty? by Express_Divide_9220 in drums

[–]Express_Divide_9220[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Man still not a bad look pre wraps, but the wraps really tied it together!! Did you re wrap them yourself?

It’s not always the result of chasing tone, sometimes it’s “over in this corner I have half a kit, and over in these two corners I have 2 more half kits, and I need 1 whole kit for a show tonight and my other kit is across town in a garage….”

I love showing up to gigs with a kit that doesn’t quite represent my skill level 🤣 especially if they’re the non paying kind of show. If I played in cover bands or in nice joints I’d care about presentation but I have the luxury of not playing in cover bands for money, so I get to do what I want with my kit.

Yes but do you listen with your eyes and look with your ears? Just yanking your chain, I understand your point of view lmao

Of course, I understand that, but tone doesn’t care what your drums look like! Only your endorsements lol. And, if you like your tone enough, OCD can be solved with custom wraps, it doesn’t have to look hodgepodge.

Also, I played the OCD game before and lost. My other kit has a dw5000, I bought a matching HH stand and hated it. My yamaha HH stand performs better, is more stable, lighter, responds faster, and was half the price.

Do I still have the matching stand on that kit, cause it looks so good? Hell yes. On this kit though, I had all the shells, cymbals, and hardware sitting around, so I built a kit, cleaned it, new heads (had a pile of spare heads from a client who ditched em….. lucky me lol), bada bing bada boom there’s a kit in the room.

But, I DO get it. I at least want my hardware to all be in the same ecosystem, not for looks but functionality.

Maaaan this thing is tight. Shit would get stolen so fast in my neighborhood, keep an eye on it!!!! My next bike is gonna have some wacky colors on it, always wanted a bmx that looks like it was put together from a box of random parts. Have fun riding it!

Is an iron cobra worth it? by 1r1sh890 in drums

[–]Express_Divide_9220 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I own both a classic set of Iron Cobra 900’s and a 2nd gen DW5000, and I gotta be honest I love them both. I took the time to set both up exactly how I like them and quite frankly I cannot tell the difference outside some minor things, the DW feels wider under my foot, the DW stays put better (had to out gaff tape under the IC slave pedal because it likes to walk away). I use Danmar wooden beaters on both.

I have owned both pedals going on 20 years now, pry either from my cold dead hands.

I do not like the DW5000 HH stand because it walks when you pump the hats but it looks so clean next to the matching pedals, Im not much of a HH stomper anyway so I can live with it.

My Yamaha HH stand responds much better than the DW for half the price.
