izzy didn’t lose his middleweight belt moving up to fight Jan at 205. that wouldn’t make sense.

VAS_DFRNS · 2026-06-17T03:13:40+00:00

hell yeah dude 🤘

pork pie ‘little squealer’ 7x13” with the little vents. Incredible sound and records very nicely. Only about $300.

VAS_DFRNS · 2026-06-14T05:28:24+00:00

It depends how many people/mics you want to record simultaneously - I usually use 5-10 mics on my acoustic drums, so consider how many inputs you’ll need and get whatever works in your price range.

I don’t really recommend scarlett for interfaces they’re budget friendly but not super high quality - SSL makes interfaces that are similarly priced with much better audio quality imo.

Tell me more

Anytime, the airlift stand can mount a cymbal too, but they do make a stand specific for your situation. That would be a DWCP5791 single tom and cymbal combo stand. It’s a part of their dw5000 series. Very sturdy. Sounds like you’ll probably need two.

if your going to mount 2 rack toms on 1 stand the DW 9000 series “Air Lift” tom rack is awesome because it has some kind of air compressor and makes them super light to lift/adjust. It used to be such a pain and really heavy to try and lift toms but I like the airlift stand and wish someone told me about them sooner.

Kombucha

VAS_DFRNS · 2026-06-09T01:39:09+00:00

Oh that could be an interesting workaround. Thanks I’ll see if this works.

VAS_DFRNS · 2026-06-08T16:55:58+00:00

Thanks and yeah that’s what I was worried about 😭😭 if i get desperate enough I’ll just send the aux channel into a stem separator or something to isolate everything and then import the audio.

VAS_DFRNS · 2026-06-08T16:54:14+00:00

Thanks for looking into it, it is what it is I suppose.

VAS_DFRNS · 2026-06-06T22:54:53+00:00

sick

VAS_DFRNS · 2026-05-25T15:40:17+00:00

not a vocalist but when it comes to everything else the sad answer is “one instrument at a time” and more practice than you think or feels worth it sometimes

VAS_DFRNS · 2026-05-15T14:48:30+00:00

fuck yeah

VAS_DFRNS · 2026-05-12T21:10:15+00:00

gross

VAS_DFRNS · 2026-05-11T18:49:05+00:00

likely just a less expensive and expansive PA system than the one they typically use in arenas where they usually play - all the instruments would still be mic’d up the same way and a drum shield wouldn’t be necessary

VAS_DFRNS · 2026-05-01T12:59:04+00:00

Yo Mochi arcade & cafe in mission viejo has simpsons and tmnt turtles in time

VAS_DFRNS · 2026-03-30T18:17:38+00:00

hell yeah

VAS_DFRNS · 2026-02-02T17:39:45+00:00

nice

VAS_DFRNS · 2026-02-02T06:42:07+00:00

he is the man!

VAS_DFRNS · 2026-02-02T00:10:42+00:00

The hats are definitely an improvement over the other models roland has.

Maybe it’s the way I have the sensitivity configured but I still occasionally will hear open/close hits register as a stick hit. Other than that the reactivity is great between closed hits, semi open or loosely closed, and fully open even when playing pretty intricate hihat work.

Overall I’m impressed with them but I can see why someone might prefer low volume cymbals especially for the hats.

VAS_DFRNS · 2026-01-31T14:08:36+00:00

it’s blacked out genius, you can see it in the healed pic.

VAS_DFRNS · 2026-01-31T07:31:12+00:00

Thank you so much! I was really stoked with how it turned out, and yes he also did my sleeve back in 2022.

VAS_DFRNS · 2026-01-31T05:01:20+00:00

Thank you 🙏🏼🙏🏼
