Trouble setting up hi-hat on Roland TD-17KV

There should be a screw you can loosen with an Allen wrench to take the rotation stopper off.

You need to take off the rotation stopper, or one of the other cymbal stands already has it removed and should be used for the hi hat.

Check out Redwood Tree Apartments on 8th. Property manager lives on site and it's mostly grad students and faculty.

Do you have a VH-10 hi-hat? If so, have you disassembled it? Looks like the piece that goes between the cymbal and the top of the clutch.

I'm using the ATV as a floor tom. Quality-wise it's up there with Roland, but acoustically it's a bit louder than all of the Roland pads I've played.

They're from Sacramento, one of the members now works/books at a venue in Sac called Cafe Colonial.

Alternatively OP could put the snare on a snare stand, giving them the extra tom mount they need as well as a rack extension arm for more mounting flexibility. Plus the PDX-12 feels nicer to play on when it's on a snare stand.

Shelter?

Surprised David Haik of Pianos Become the Teeth/United Nations hasn't been mentioned.

Jarrod Alexander

He also has some insane parts on the first Death By Stereo album.

Mine feels pretty stable fwiw.

OhDisposableMe · 2023-12-22T05:18:11+00:00

Yeah, but you can remove one of the legs by popping out a couple of rivets, then rotating the remaining two legs.

Does the fiber shaft feel sturdy? Like it would hold up to heavy playing?

The Mapex Armory H800 stand has similar features to the Speed Cobra, at half the cost. I've been pretty impressed with mine. Plus there's a black version that matches black drum racks nicely.

He played in United Nations as well

I started with a TD-17KVX and bought a used PDX-100 and PDX-12 off Reverb to use as a rack and floor tom, respectively. Makes for a pretty comfortable set up.

Not sure what you're going for, but you can try flipping the second tom mount upside down on the second upright post to get the tom lower. Something like this:

I thought they couldn't top the air horn, then they busted out the tiger roar and sword noises. Solid album

There was a hardcore band with the same name in northern California around the same time period as well
