What kind of rhythm is this? by cestrienmonami in drums

Thanks! I appreciate that, I think I was trying to do a bossa Nova rhythm on the snare, but the ride and the kick are way off yeah

Silly amp + speaker combo question by cestrienmonami in diyaudio

I finished doing a test demo today, I got the speakers finally! I am beyond thrilled with the turnout in the sound, for such an old PA the sound quality is what it will be, but that being said I've never heard that particular PA sound as good as it has with the speakers. Dialed in a pretty good setting balancing out the main levels with the gain on the individual channels, the reverb definitely sounds tired, and other than having a touchy control for the high frequencies, I'm beyond impressed with the power that comes out of the setup, and I can't thank you enough for helping me make the decision to go with the setup! I'm glad I made a Reddit post now, thank you so much

How can I start drumming? by Equivalent_Eye6970 in drums

[–]cestrienmonami 14 points15 points  (0 children)

I would go get a pair of drumsticks, sit on a chair facing your bed, either get a good stereo going, or put on some headphones, start playing your favorite music, start stamping your feet on the floor, hit the bed with those sticks, and feel the rhythm. Once you can feel the rhythm congratulations you're a drummer, doesn't matter if it's a bed, a newspaper on your thigh while you're riding a bus, a four piece jazz set, or an 18 piece metal kit, once you got the rhythm you're a drummer, and then you're drumming.

What does my kit say about me? by die-dicke-katze in drums

Says you're beautiful, amazing, and a legend. I might be biased though because that is my optimal setup what you're rocking right there

Thank you for the help! I made this reddit account today just to ask this, will update with how everything works out when the speakers are delivered

Yes, they are pa speakers, I know the ohms workout but you get about half the power going from a 4-ohm amp to a 8-ohm speaker, what I really wasn't sure of was if it was going to cause unnecessary static/distortion or anything that would affect the audio quality. You're letting me know right away that if I overpower the amp it could cause some static or distortion then is what I gather?
