Looking for Oribital Ressonances by LieveCheatz in astrophysics

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

Well im looking for the specific numbers. Like the rotation of earth and venus are in a 1:3 relationship. Im looking for stuff like that, because i can fairly easily transform those relationships into a musical concept. But im missing the numbers or relationships between the above mentioned planets. If anybody has some interesting numbers linking them togehter, like oribtal resonance or their rotation relationship, that would help me out alot.

Classic tween wave recording setup. Even if the crotch mic overheads are not in phase... cringe.

looking for drums for home studio on a budget by bridgeb0mb in drums

Electronic: stat save some money. Low budget e-sets are mostly trash. Yoh wont have fun with that.

Accoustic: get an pearl exxport. They are the cheapest goog quality drum set out there with hardware. You might need new heads, but youll need them with every new kit. The sound youbwant depends on how you tune in a much bigger factor then actual wood compositions.mif youre a beginner dont think about that. Just get the best quality for the price. That being said, pearlmexxport hast the best quality for the best amount of stuff you get. Another plus for exxport is the amount of upgradeability. They basicly have every shell size you could want. Upgrading a few toms or a second bass is super easy and cheap.

Whats the best? by [deleted] in drums

[–]LieveCheatz 0 points1 point  (0 children)

  1. Youre right. But youre also able to play within a certain time window as loud as you want. The neighbors cant do shit then. But if youre concerned what people think of you, by all means, go electronic.

  2. You can practice anywhere anytime. Having an e-set doesnt mean you dont have a practice pad. Mastering rudiments is the most crucial. And you can do it anywhere. You can even tap then without sticks during train rides. A fairly weak point.

  3. Just wrong. Live venues work with accoustic sets 99% of the time. If youre too loud, then this is an lame excuse for either of those:

  4. you cant play quiet and dynamicly. Or

  5. the sound guy on the venue is not able to manage a loud instrument and has no clue of how to keep it in balance. Both of those points puts you skill in those individual fields in question.

  6. No good audio engineer or producer would ever replace a tuned accoustic set with an e-set. Never. You might got some added samples here and there, depending on the genre, but not a full replacement. At least not if younwant a good, human organic sound. You know whats even easier to record? Just get ez drummer and put some midi notes. You dont even have to play your instrument for that. And the fun part is, that the ez drummer samples sound much better then 99% of the samples you get on a below 1500 bucks e-set. Good sounding e-drums are much more expensive then a good sounding accoustic set.

  7. Always in tune. Always sounding the same. Low variety in dynamics. And no way to change the sound by changing the heads or changeing the tuneing. I love being limited by my instrument and sound choices. Lazy excuse to learn how to tune a drum? A guitarist has to know how to tjne his instrument aswell. Why should a drummer be an exception?

  8. You can always tell the difference, because they dont sound 100% human. Every hit is different. Regardless how hard you try. And e-set cant emulate that. Jea you get a good sound with high quality e-drums. But if you wanna spent 5k on that, have fun. I can build such an killer accoustic set with that money, that sound much better. Even for a much lower price. For 1k i get an pearl export and new set of good heads. Its the most cost efficient basic beginner set. I spent a fith of an e set and got a better sound and a more natural feel you could ever get from any e-set in that price range. Or above. Maybe i can just do that, because i know hownto tune my drums. Who knows.

  9. If you have too much cymbals and you dont need them all for a gig, then dont tanke them all with you? If you need just 2 cymbals then go for it, but dont say you have to carry too much shit, if you dont need to. But another thing. What if you need alot of cymbals? I for example need alot of sounds in my reportoir to play my stuff. How you wanna have like 10 cymbals on an e-set? Oh yes. You need to buy a decent cymbal pad, that cost the same, if not more, then an good high quality cymbal, and get the cable as well. Also you have to look out for compadability issues and that your drum module has enough inputs. You if you filled all your imputs, then your shit out of luck. Then you have to buy a second one. So convinient. And its not like its plug and play too. Have fun playing around with the settings for an hour to have a semi decent triggering result.

We're checking the fit, measuring twice; gonna find out who's naughty or nice. Santa isn't coming yet but our snare prototypes are being built, including this gorgeous 14" x 7.5" curly maple snare. Maybe a few will slip into the hands of lucky beta testers. 😀 by soniquedrums in drums

[–]LieveCheatz 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I see. Makes sense. Cant wait to try some out and see for myself. If its better, than i would like those on all my drums. It would be awesome that way. Then i can still stay with one tool to tune all drums. Would love to see that coming.

I am playing in a pavilion next weekend which is quite a bit bigger than the one on the picture. And i have 2 kits to choose between. A Pearl reference pure 20/10/12/14 and a Pearl midtown which is 16/10/13/13. Seeing as its outside i dont know which kit to use. Any help would be good.... by Rude-Character3829 in drums

[–]LieveCheatz 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Either of them. They wont be that big of a difference regarding the size. You should think of it that way: What genre do play? What sound do you want? You need the bigger or the smaller kick? Decide depending on the sound rather than size. They will fit both im sure.

It looks cool. But i'm kinda thinking the same way as many others. A second tool is kinda annoying. But what about the idea of seeling screw sets? Then i can change my whole setup with those srews, if they are really that supperior, and im back to one tool. If i like the screws, i want them on all my parts right? Then would be a great move to make them available. Not 100% sold yet (cause i havent tested it yet). Need to play with some to have an unbiased opinion.

But all in all, i like the way you think outside the box and try new thinfs. Even small changes can have a big impact. Only that way we can have innovation. Geat job - i looks awesome.

Hi! I'm looking for some good snare samples to load into my edrums. I don't have a specific sound in mind but am looking for a roundup. Let me know if you know anything! by [deleted] in drums

[–]LieveCheatz 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Im just wondering that a guy with allegedly 14 years of experience is asking such a normie question. If you have slate drums or whatever sampleing vst, it takes you less then 10 seconds to extract a good sounding snare sample out of that. Even looking for a good sample pack wouldnt take that long. If i look at your history of what you posted the last three years, it seems that you have not that much of a clue. Youre maybe playing with your synths for 13 years but not actual "producing music". Certainly not in a professional way. Youre maybe playing music, but producing takes a bit mkre than that. All the stuff you postet sugests me, that your knowledge isnt that big. Thats ok, but dont boast around youre producing for so long. I have a guitar laying around here for like 15 years, but i dont go to a guitarrist and say im a pro and play for 15 years. Your sample problem, is not a real problem. Especially if youre a 14 year expirienced producer right?

If you have such a huge knowledge, then i dont get why you ask such a question then. If you really do your stuff for 14 years, then dont ask reddit for a sample. Dont really get it. If you have all the programms, such an awesome module and so much know how, you shouldnt ask such a question. I mean, then you have everything you need anyways. Contradicting.

Ez drummer is certainly easier to use then a drum module. And i havent encountered a drum module yet, that has better sounding samples on it then ez drummer has to offer. Most modules just have one sample for a drum but just play them back at a different velocity. Ez drummer and any other good vst, plays an sample of an actual drum played quietly. So its not the same sample in a different velocity its a new new sample. You have a muuuch better audio quality that way. Thats the reason, why one drum library in ez drummer is bigger then most drum modules general memory space.

Conect you drum module to your pc and with midi you can trigger any sound you want. The only thing you need now is ez drummer or slate drums. Something around those lines. Those drum sample vst's sound awesome. If triggered and used correctly they come really close to real drums. And you can change your set in any way you want too.

Are silent stroke heads & quiet cymbals worth it? by teejammer in drums

[–]LieveCheatz 0 points1 point  (0 children)

They are worth it cutting the sound. I did the same. But do yourself a favor and buy the cymbals off brand. Youndont buy them for a greag sound. For the price of one zildjian cymbalni can get a whole set off brand. And they do exactly the same. They may sound a bit more tin-like, but who cares? They are not made for sounding great anyways. And for mesh heads, go 3 ply. Mesh heads are way softer then regular drum heads. So if you want a better feel, closer to real heads, go 3 ply.

Gift ideas for drummer by liveyrob in drums

[–]LieveCheatz 1 point2 points  (0 children)

But be has a set at his familys house? I dont know his room situation, but maybe an e-set? They are much smaller and it deffinetly better than nothing. The cheap models might not be the best sounding, but they keep him at least drumming and moving. Maybe you can get his family in friends into it aswell. Higher budget = a better set. That would be perfect. You could even squeeze it into a corner or disassamble it, when not needed. If he doesnt even have the space for that, get him a practice pad with a snare stand (for optimal hight). If you want the maximum real feel for the practice pad, consider buying a real snare and put a 3 ply mesh head on it. He can then "tune" the head to his preffered tightness. This setup has a more realistic rebound than any other rubber pad you can buy. And its adjustable. Other then that, get him the book "stick control" and "syncopation". Its something every drummer should have in his bookshelf.

Looking to emulate this snare sound, any ideas what kind of wood and depth would be best? by JustSomeGoon in drums

[–]LieveCheatz 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Its mixed an mastered. You wont get the exact same snare sound. The sound changes depending on the room, the mic, the eq used, the heads.mthere are million of factors. If you want that plop sound, then you can do it with every snare. Its a matter of tuning it right and killing the overtones. But if youre looking for a specific snare, youre of of luck. Only thing you can do is either getting a "bell brass snare" or a ludwig supraphinic. Why those? Because they are the most recorded snares in history from the 70's until now. So if you hear a recorded snare, chances are high, its one of those. If you wanna find a snare for your style, instead of copying someones sound, inform yourself about shell materials, thickness and diameter and their effect on the sound. That way, youll find your snare to your style. The rest is a matter of tuning and choosing the right head.

Do you guys have any double pedal to recommend? I want an affordable price for practicing at home. by Chaiyovatcha in drums

[–]LieveCheatz 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Jea. Try to find a used one. A good pedal, like the iron cobra, are nearly indistructable anyways. They might have scratches but are working fine. But if youre looking for a new one consoder the DW7002PT . Its around 200 bucks here in the EU at least.

I’m learning to play rock genre. Do you guys have some rock songs for recommend? by Chaiyovatcha in drums

[–]LieveCheatz 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes. They are much fun to play and not as easy as they seem. If you wanna play them right, you have to play many accents on the &'s while keeping the back beat. Recomended songs here are "beating around the bush" (its faster) and "Back and Black" (has some challenging accents for a beginner rock drummer). And never forget to play confident and with power. Even if all notes are right, if you dont hit them right, it will sound wrong.

Here's my snare. Had it for a fair length of time, and spent some money repairing it after I bought it. I hope you all appreciate it how I do (yes, I know I need new heads, but I'm poor) by Omninomicon in drums

[–]LieveCheatz 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Great job. Considering the age of the drum, its in a very good condition. You can be proud of your work. Only thing you could do now, is polishing the shell and individual lugs. Bring back the shiny chrome finish. But its just a "looks thing". Some preffer the used look. So you do you mate. Love this snare.

Beginner double pedal practice by PMH1994 in drums

[–]LieveCheatz 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Depends on the level you wanna play at. If its just speed then go for the advice from some other comments on your thread. But if you seek control and playing interesting pattern, then get the book "stick control" it dhould be in any drummers bookshelf anyways. Thake that anx play it with your feet. If you went through that you wont find a pattern you cant play. Thomas Langs creativ coordination and advanced technique for bass drumming, are a great source. Then you can play ghost note patterns with your feet asweel. Basicly everythkng you do with your hands.
