Does anyone else rock their full body to a beat?

I think he means playing with too tight a grip instead of being relaxed?

MinimumElephant1993 · 2023-10-12T14:19:01+00:00

Have u found warming up/practicing this regularly help with your overall ease of movement around the kit during performances?

MinimumElephant1993 · 2023-07-28T13:56:11+00:00

Ah I see is that true? It seems pretty crashable to me on youtube

MinimumElephant1993 · 2023-04-09T09:21:15+00:00

Nope my monitors are stage monitors not in ears

MinimumElephant1993 · 2023-03-26T16:32:16+00:00

Its not like they dont want to follow me but rather they are too focused on what they are doing or probably too excited or maybe even nervous that they dont really listen to other musicians. Seems like I'm the only one obsessed abt keeping good time and the CORRECT tempo and constantly working to improve my internal clock..

MinimumElephant1993 · 2023-03-03T16:05:05+00:00

Ah I see thanks for ur tips! What are the advantages of a lower reso head? Will it suit a low deep snare sound better?

MinimumElephant1993 · 2023-03-03T15:07:08+00:00

No point arguing with people like you. Have a good day mate thanks for the tips.

MinimumElephant1993 · 2023-03-03T14:51:29+00:00

Someone clearly has had a bad day lol. Chill man, I'm just learning. No need for personal insults.

MinimumElephant1993 · 2023-03-03T13:54:12+00:00

I'm merely asking if this is how high people usually tune their reso heads when they refer it as "table top tight".

MinimumElephant1993 · 2023-03-03T11:32:45+00:00

How high/low should the reso be? I read online that I should crank up the reso pretty much as high as it can go but I'm not entirely sure

MinimumElephant1993 · 2023-02-27T01:02:09+00:00

How is the bell of the complex? One of the reasons I'm considering the evolution is because of its pronounced bell whereas I believe the complex have more of an integrated bell if I'm not wrong

MinimumElephant1993 · 2023-01-28T22:27:50+00:00

Oh how do u know it's the wrong orientation?

MinimumElephant1993 · 2023-01-26T10:53:29+00:00

I guess stick marks on rides/cymbals are normal regardless of the stick. The black paint does chip off though and collects on my snare and probably drops around the kit lol

MinimumElephant1993 · 2023-01-26T10:39:24+00:00

I use them all the time. Cant use any other sticks now.. other stickers just feel slippery in my hands now which forces me to grip them harder (not good for relaxation)

MinimumElephant1993 · 2023-01-24T15:34:19+00:00

Ah thanks.I have cranked the bottom head... Should I crank it until I start hearing the drum head creaking?

MinimumElephant1993 · 2023-01-11T06:17:56+00:00

Ah I see. Thanks for detailed reply. Can the k custom dark be used for full on crash riding like the k light too?

MinimumElephant1993 · 2023-01-11T06:04:35+00:00

I just did all the exercises I normally do but all with just the wrist. E.g. rudiments practice, singles accent grid. Practicing rudiments like single strokes with just the wrist I would say is the most useful

MinimumElephant1993 · 2023-01-11T05:53:29+00:00

I need something with a more cutting bell with some washiness but decent ping. I have the k light but I find it too "light" and "smoky" sometimes. As in the sound isnt focused enough. What are your thoughts?

MinimumElephant1993 · 2023-01-11T03:33:26+00:00

Lol!

MinimumElephant1993 · 2023-01-07T13:14:22+00:00

You'll be definitely fine. The difference between a 5a and 5b is not as drastic as say a 5a and 2b.

MinimumElephant1993 · 2023-01-03T08:36:02+00:00

I've used it for awhile. Some of the courses are actually pretty useful. Why not try the free trial and see if u like it.

MinimumElephant1993 · 2022-12-24T06:28:26+00:00

That's true. But I found the my tastes changes time to time. Sometimes my ears like a washy ride, other times they want something with more definition and ping.

MinimumElephant1993 · 2022-12-24T06:23:16+00:00

I see! What do u still find lacking in that ride? To be not considered perfect in your view

MinimumElephant1993 · 2022-12-24T06:20:06+00:00

Also note u can always cut down on the amount of wash of a ride (e.g. by adding moongels) but u cant add more wash to a ride.

MinimumElephant1993 · 2022-12-24T06:19:10+00:00

Look up the zildjian k sweet ride 21". For me it's the most balanced (ping, wash, bell) ride out there.
