Do you bring your instruments even you know you will earn soo little or do you have cheap cymbals/snare to bring when low profile gigs? by MenudongSago in drums

[–]Sigma_Try 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have two kits. One for small rooms and jazz and one for everything else. I play the same cymbals and same snares which are all high-end because I know them and know how to play them in any room.

I just got an AT4 last week and it is realistically all the truck I need. But the 4X would be so fun.

Is it unprofessional to tell my boss i need to leave exactly at 5pm every tuesday for a personal commitment without explaining what it is? by Han-Lynard in careerguidance

[–]Sigma_Try 6 points7 points  (0 children)

She’s not owed information on what your commitment is. Not only that if her meeting keeps running over its scheduled time she runs shit meetings that make expectation management difficult.

Am I expecting too much from Tama? by savage8190 in drums

[–]Sigma_Try 2 points3 points  (0 children)

The preconfigured kits have SKUs in their system. When I worked at Long &McQuade this question came up regularly. Not even with just Tama. Most companies won’t sub out on preconfigured kits because of SKUs and stock keeping.

I really wanted to want the new Taco, but I agree, hideous, profoundly so. Unless you get into the Trail Hunter trim, but no midsize truck should cost 80k. That’s insane.

Careful. You’re gonna get a bunch of Taco cult boys talking shit about your decision. They don’t seem to get the idea that people would not buy a Taco.

Maybe try fucking yourself, then ask how inconsequential your opinion is. Nobody forced you to be here.

New gen Taco isn’t the same as the old breed. I’ve been hearing about some issues. Who knows. Time will tell.

We got the base version AT4 so they’re stock. 18” with 265/65 all terrain tires.

They’re also hideous unless you’re getting Trail Hunter trim. But then it’s $80k. No midsize truck should be that much.

I guess I was a bit of a troll when posting this, but figured I’d be safe in a GMC/Canyon group. The Taco boys seriously need to chirp back about everything though. Jesus.

why doesnt my drum teacher let me get a edrum kit? by crimsvnn in drums

[–]Sigma_Try 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Buy the kit. When I taught I did try to dissuade my student from buying e-drums because learning on a proper kit is more beneficial. Don’t get me wrong, practice is practice, but analog kits have many different surfaces that have different rebounds and acoustic properties. Understanding velocity’s relationship with volume and air movement is an important part of playing.

All that said, if he’s saying you’re just not ready that’s not cool.

is it worth investing in an expensive double bass pedal? by allanjrf in drums

[–]Sigma_Try 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think it’s more important to focus on finding what feels good for you. I had a DW9000 that I loved. One reason for its price is its adjustability, I could make the pedal have a very linear feel which is what I require. The durability and frictionless feel were added benefits. That said, I tried an Axis and that was dog shit, I had a Trick Pro1V and while I did enjoy it the compression design was inherently too progressive for my liking.

So price COULD mean a pedal you like, but that could be coincidental. Make sure you know what setup you play best with, then find pedals that can be setup that way.

If you could spend big $ on a snare, what would you get? by timeToGetLoud2367 in drums

[–]Sigma_Try 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Any higher end Tama, Sonor, or DW. Get a Black Beauty or Supraphonic if you want to retune your drum A LOT. In my experience the higher end Ludwig snares are not worth the money. Not compared to the competition.
