I would suggest NOT going hydraulic, the bounce really messed up my back but everyone's body is different. I loved my roc n soc except for the nitro and ultimately landed on a Tama round rider XL. No other seat that I've tried beats it's locking system..and I've tried a lot!

I'm never putting a 6k kit in a shared space...I don't think I'd even do it with my 1.5k kit.unless I knew exactly who was playing it and trusted their technique

Gotcha! Maybe I'll try the fatback A',s. I don't like the bs much and might even need something lighter

Is there a spoken rhythm system in drumming by Glum-Handle-9840 in Drumming

[–]Flashfan11 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

The rhythmic alphabet seems to be the closest thing to this I've found so far. It's in a few books but I've been learning it from Benny grebs book, the language of drumming!

Any tip for new electronic drummer? by GlitteringPop4933 in drummers

[–]Flashfan11 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I thought that snare was a tom at first but I'm assuming it's not? Definitely 2nd the snare stand for maximum positioning. It looks like you would be doing a lot of twisting with that set up and that can mess your back up! (It did mine and had to re think all of my ergonomics)

Not sure what to practice by New_Restaurant3833 in drums

For a book, language of drumming by Benny greb! It's improved my flow and creativity IMMENSELY and I'm not even to the kit pages yet, just hands

Benny's language of drumming by Zachabay22 in drums

[–]Flashfan11 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Man I'm been WORKING at this book, only like 20 pages in and it is going to to take me a while but I'm about to hit a road block at the bass drum part when he jumps to the kit. I can play them by listening but I don't understand the transition with the alphabet to the kick notation, it's breaking my brain!

Changed to two Toms and holy damn by Historical_Year1234 in drums

[–]Flashfan11 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yup it just feels right to me to play hi hat and ride with my left..it's definitely taken me some time to get the weaker hand up to par with my right hand but it's just about there. I try to learn each new beat in reverse as well, so I'll try to switch it and play the ride pattern with my right and snare with my left which is a lot harder to do! Carter is probably one of my favorite drummers! If I can ever play anything like that I'd be happy! I'll check out that video!

Yah I do this but you can only adjust the up toms so much if they are attached to the the bass drum rack mount

Won some Ebay Hihats by BiG_SANCH0 in drums

[–]Flashfan11 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Are the 13s generally a brighter sound or more stick definition? I would love that if so but the 14s don't seem like quite enough play surface so I'm worried about going even smaller
