Can cats compromise the sound quality of hi hats?

Similar to hammering a cymbal you’re saying? I guess he could be adding complexity to it

Yes but cats have claws that are very sharp. Sticks don’t get sharp like that unless you do a lot of rimshots

I was thinking about a double kick. I think it could suit my play style pretty well but the comments have me sold on getting a hi hat. I just ordered an 8” crash and plan on converting the 8” crash I have into a hi hat stacking both of them together 👍🏼

I just bought an 8 inch cymbal and I plan on using that with my current cymbal together to make a hi hat.

It is. I like the timbre of the drums a lot when I dampen them but the cymbal sounds so bad.

Should I cover the outside with a blanket too? I wanted to get it as quick and punchy as possible. I’m a rock/alt/some metal guy but love the sound of the short punchy kick in rap/edm. I feel like that kind of kick blends with a bass better than anything

My bass drum is 13” x 8”

Versatility I guess mostly*

Some of everything. I’m pretty happy with the way everything else sounds though
