I'm surprised but the best to me was the New Beat top and K Custom bottom. Great video!

You seem like a really nice person. Like you do nice things for people all the time without the desire to get anything in return. I don't know, just the vibe you give off.

DW Drums has long offered 5 position butt plates (5P) on their snare drums (and a 3 position butt plate model prior to that). These are available on their Collector's drum kits. These devices allow you to easily affect the snare tension, right? Well, it's actually a little more complicate than that. Let's do a deep dive with audio samples on how this mechanism affects the sound of your DW Drums Collector's Snare Drum. Our sound source today's demo is a DW Collector's Purpleheart snare 6.5 x 14 Replacement parts for your DW Drums MAG Snare Drum Throw Off 5-position Butt Plate can be found here: amzn.to/4gfjETU *If you purchase through the above links, I'll make a tiny commission.

Nice job Sean!

Nice work! Love your china crash for this.

An easy one but still a classic. Symphony Of Destruction appeared on the 1992 "Countdown to Extinction" album, and was performed by Nick Menza. While I've covered tons of Metallica songs over the years, this is only the second Megadeth song I've learned, with the last one from my high school days.

is this slowed down a bit?

Some awesome drumming man, keep it up

I have a purple zxt 8" trashformer. Bought it around 2009. Its pretty cracked and shredded at this point. It still sounds great. You can stack it with just about anything!

Thanks for this video! I will never have such a deluxe kit as I'm 77 years old and that speaks for itself, but I own a 1962 vintage Hollywood double tom set of Ludwig's and a late 80's Pearl Power double tom kit. Decades ago I started using moleskin by Dr. Scholl's on the hoop at the drum pedal to protect it, but playing numerous gigs over the years the hoops still get some scratches or dings. That was interesting about the head fitment between Remo and Evans. The heads should not have scratched the finish. I currently use Evans Heads and have since the early two thousands. Again this was an interesting video and I subscribed to your channel. Thanks.

Why do companies don't check for wobble test! Am stunned to see this in vicfirth. American classic. They claim to have perfectness

Cymbals sound like shit.

Smells like coconuts. I’ve been using this wax for several months and I don’t really like it. It rubs off WAY too easily. Leaves a waxy coconut smelling residue on my hands, but the stick is left smooth and slick after several minutes of playing. I find I have to reapply it often. I’m looking for something else.

It's hard to tell, are the DWs clear or coated?

Great review-so clear and very interesting. Thanks so much

Dude! Thank you for the video. You saved me a lot of headache

Needs more cowbell ;)

How do you incorporate triplets in your drum beats and do something useful with it? Today you'll learn how to do this by learning broken triplets. A "Broken Triplet" is really any triplet pattern where you rest on some of the beats within the phrasing. This will help your music be more interesting. We’ll show you how to work this into your fill and drum beats.

Couldn't get my 14 & 16 DW floor toms as close together as I wanted so I folded a washcloth three times and wedged it between the points the two floors touched. I can see it but onlookers cannot. Does that rob me of resonance? If it does only dogs can hear it.

I am a fan of the Zildjian brand but until now I have not heard a china as spectacular as the china boy 18 K series, although I would say I like the sound of the Ultra Hammered China 19 a little, but when I heard the sound of the Wuhan chinas I fell in love and It is so far the best I have tried and I would recommend the 16, 17 and 18 inch chinas although they all sound beautiful just as much as the 14 and 19 inch ones and I even think they reach 24 inches but in reality all the chinas of this brand sound wonderful....... and not to mention that they cost less than half of what the Zildjians cost!!!

Nice work!

@7.14 The drumming starts, first half is blurb.

Nice shirt I love it

Such a fun song to play. I could imagine for you. I just play bass lol but fun nonetheless

Where's your crown? There no doubt that this era of Metallica is what made them the biggest band of their time. King Nothing was on the 1996 "Load" album, performed by Lars Ulrich, with writing credits to Hetfield, Ulrich & Hammett. This isn't my first time covering this song. But now with new DW Collector's drums, new lights & new recording gear, I decided to see if my performance and mixing skills improved along with everything else.

thanks for the thorough review. maybe they should be called Not So Goodwood Drumsticks

There is something about having clear heads on the toms, and a double ply coated snare head that just makes the kit feel really nice to me. That’s what I have on my kit.

Great video !! keep it up, it's cool to see , very nice game on the drums I loved again congratulations !! new subscriber!! I also do drums and cover drums for metal and rock you tell me what you think if you want , well done

I Like Support Drum Covers ! This is a Nice Job !🤟🤘🤟💥

What preamp is better for your kick drum's "out" position? The fast and aggressive transformer based API 3124, or gritty and dark tube from the UA 610. Using a DW Collector's PurpleCore Maple as a sound source, I've set up a microphone outside the resonant head (un-ported). We'll switch back the playback through the different preamps to get you the best comparison possible. Preamps used in this video: * UA 610 (as part of a Universal Audio 6176 Tube Channel Strip) amzn.to/4aVNQke * API 3124+ (similar to the newer API 3124V or the API 512c) *If you purchase through the above links, I'll make a tiny commission.

UA is like Bonham

Why are the bells on 17" and under on most A's and K's smaller relative to the size verses anything 18" and over. I wonder if you know why the bells don't increase relative in size from 17 to 18. The bell size is over double from a 17 to 18

Man, played really nicely, but CANNOT BELIEVE you are using double pedal for that 🤨

What ride cymbal are you playing? Sounds real nice.

Stacks never really grabbed me that much, but I’d go the 16/16. Seemed a little more musical to me.

Thank you for your time making this comparison video. I think you’re right about having non duplicating pitches. I recently purchased a Sabian HHX 14 in thin crash in the brilliant finish. I enjoy it quite a bit.

Where did u get the mic clip replacement and the metal screw on

That sticky feeling of zildjian and meinl stick wax (my money is on they’re the same product) is the reason I use Sticky Bumps surfboards wax instead. It’s nice and tacky but not at all “sticky”. That technical product issue aside, stick wax is a must have accessory for me now.

I recently started using the Zildjian Compact Drumstick Wax product and it greatly helped me with a 4-hour gig I had. Let's dig into this "grip enhancer" - what it is, its benefits, and how to apply it to your sticks.

at 1 time in the 80's i used a k zildjian canadian 14" inch top hi hat cymbal with a quick beat bottom 14" inch zildian hi hat cymbal for a great sounding hi hat set up .....❤❤

How do you think these compare with wearing the drum gloves? I've also been wondering if there's really a big difference in feel with drumming shoes. Great video!

Can the Waves emulation of the UA 1176 compressor hold up to the real thing? While both the CLA-76 and hardware UA 1176LN versions are easy to come by, most budget minded engineers may have only had the chance to use a plug-in version.

sounded great regardless

The 16" A Medium Thin was one of the first crashes I ever bought. I've had it for 40 years. It ALWAYS goes with me to gigs. I love the shimmer sound it produces. It's great for crashing as well as riding. I've used it for jazz, rock, alternative, top 40, blues... EVERYTHING. It's great with dynamics. My go to cymbal. It's paired well with the 17" A Custom, 17" K Medium Thin and 18" K Thin I've paired with it.

Remo has more cut to it!
