1 Drum kit 9 different spaces (Tight Room to Racquetball court) Shred Shed

[@andy80sdrums]

Large wood room is where it's at for me. Room is EVERYTHING for drums...

[@jlchd]

I liked the "stone" room!

[@Tracebebo]

I love the Large "Live" Garage. Reminds me of when I first moved into this one house with my family and it was before we brought everything over but I was already at the new place with my friend and set up my drums, couldn't stop playing Bonham licks for those couple hours.

[@megyalilaballad]

Hah! The squash court… Perfect example of VST digitally generated reverb. Really well made comparison, especially back to back.

[@pedrodyck95]

I hear how he reacts differently in his playing in each room.

[@kjc9trader491]

amazing how the different spaces completely change the attitude of the drum sounds, especially the SD... ...and your saying no tuning adjustments were made between these recordings? ...wow... Personally I like the 1st studio, and the 8th large wet hall - followed closely by the 7th large dry hall, then the 6th Stone room... The last "racquetball court" could be cool for certain effects playing... Crazy --- Cool video!!

[@SteveStockmalMusic]

3:57 back to back !! Amaaaaazing !!! 3:34 Wow !!! So that’s what reverb sounds like 😎

[@user-2Hteyasizyc]

This shows how bad a bad room sounds. The garage had no nasty resonances and i have actually blended that in subtle as use for a huge room (and power) and it gives a sense of mega width- with no issues. Notice the room right after the garage has HORRID resonances. Thanks for the video.

[@jonashellborg8320]

Such a cool video. Nice drumming too. As a drummer, we deal with this problem when we play gigs. Each room is different and it changes the drums. So you have to, best you can, adjust tuning, snare and cymbal choices, muffling, and sticks/brushes and how hard you hit each thing.

[@almerinofirmino6832]

No room no boom

[@carsonyuh]

My personal favs are garage and tight stone basement

[@bell3287]

I will always love the garage and W E T hall, and the reflective chamber

[@MrCJHamill]

Yes I thought the garage was pretty good and a toss up between Dry hall and Wet hall. If I was forced to choose I'll take Dry hall.

[@HansCarlsten]

Great video!

[@OlDrippie]

My small room sounds like the large dry hall setup: (2) overhead -NT2’s {Sm57s works fine} Roughly 3-4ft above snare, 2ft away from snare equidistant. (1) SM7b snare top {Sm57 works fine} (1) sm57 rack tom {Sm57 works fine} (1) 52A floor tom {Sm57 works fine} (1) d112 kick drum inside bd on pillow {Sm57 works fine} (1) reverb chamber {hallway leading to small room works fine} you can also use an sm57 for this as well, as it works fine. -Lots of sound absorbers behind and above drum kit. Watch out for reflections! Cool videos!

[@jazzblasterrr]

I like the outdoor open space. nice transient attack without too much crazy reverb.

[@tonstudiometzingen]

liked the small wood room very much. but its all depending what sound you are going for in a song

[@rk28984]

Awesome as always, I liked the small "controlled" studio the best.

[@anunakigaviria1105]

EXELENT, THANKS FROM COLOMBIA,

[@saustindavis]

The outdoor and stone room sounded best to me. The dry stage was too choked for my taste, and the racquetball court would be cool as a reverb on a dry sound.

[@nuellek]

small wood room ALL DAY!

[@markvmmm]

I like your idea of using wooden pallets as acoustic diffusers.

[@lunoustudios]

You guys know how to do comparison videos right! That large hall sounds great. The garage sound is endearing.

[@ShredShed]

Thank you!

[@Henry-uv9xu]

The two wood rooms sounded the best to me. The racquetball court sounded the most fun.

[@KaiserFritzprod]

the reflective chamber would be incredible for recording some shoegaze guitar riffs

[@LearnAudioEngineering]

very nice, love the dry hall. once worked at a studio that was a converted sports club with racquet ball courts pimped out as live rooms, and a tile sauna as an echo chamber. :P great video

[@michaelj.podlovics2246]

Dream Space: Dry hall blended with a bit of the Large Reflective Chamber :$

[@DomBloch]

What a great video!

[@ianwalton7893]

Great video and demonstrates perfectly why the drum kit, or drum heads you viewed on you tube sound completely different (usually much worse) once you get them home. I'm just about to convert one of my bedrooms in to an acoustic drum practice room, so want it as dead as possible, as this will give my kit a nice tight controlled sound, and also go a long way to helping reduce the perceived volume outside the room too.

[@jjcdrummer]

I second.. or 50th.. or whatever the number of comments that reiterate this: Absolutely EXCELLENT demonstration of how room effects the drums sound. These guys killed it! Also, I feel that besides the room acoustics, and tuning, the actual player has a huge influence on the way the drums sound. You could take 10 different drummers on the same kit, in the same room, back to back playing the same piece, and it would be surprising how different it might sound. And to the point of drum heads sounding different on video- besides all the factors of room, and player, tuning and the drum shells play a big part in it also. But the biggest thing, I think, is: Microphones "hear stuff" differently than our ears. What you hear on a recording is almost always engineered in such a way that it's far off from the actual sound of the drum in the room to the player. Mic placement, signal chain, EQ, compression, reverb, etc... There's just so much to it.

[@amusic9825]

Good video.

[@pacificdrumma]

Garage all the way

[@kgnunlu]

Large hall sounded a bit weird to my ears, especially the cymbals. I liked the large wood room the best. It’s clear that so much effort was put into this video. Cheers :)

[@hazeyshades9533]

Good video!

[@ShredShed]

Thanks for the visit!

[@lunarmusichunter8920]

I like sound the first one

[@0bstrctdmvmnt]

You're making such great videos, Im still wondering why you have so few views.

[@metaldani]

I liked the studio, the garage and the stone room. Now I would need a good emulator / IR to all of them :D

[@Black-Maple]

Reflective room is the best. Amazing! 😆🤮

[@Nivej8180]

bahahahaha

[@topa1798]

Do you own a lot of drum kitor a lot of property?😍🙌🏻🙌🏻🙌🏻🙌🏻🙌🏻🙌🏻

[@christopherpederson1021]

Large dry hall all the way

[@MeierGlab]

this must have been a pain in the ass to move everything to make this video, subscribed

[@geitenkaasje1]

Large reflective room would be very cool if the tomtoms would be more clearly cutting through

[@pigsfood27]

Large wet hall is the best

[@ALJessica]

what is the measurements of that carpet? :)

[@qogum.6880]

It won't effect my drum set if the temperature is cold?

[@GabrielXDrums]

It will actually especially if you have a nice kit. Moved out my drums from my live room last night just because the temp drops. Best to keep anything metal in the room and move the wood out.

[@underpressureman]

2 questions.What is it about that Stage Hall that sounds so Dry, and 2 Where was that Large reflective Chamber? Oh and awsome video!

[@ShredShed]

The room the stage is in is acoustically treated and very dry in nature. The chamber was a racquetball court ; )

[@underpressureman]

@@ShredShed Oh ya that's cool. I couldn't believe how dry it was! And I totally thought it was a racquetball court hahaaa, I just wanted to see if I was on the money! Thanks!

[@lgmnowkondo938]

The garage sounded really cool in a one track on the album kinda way....otherwise large wet hall is clearly ideal. Now...when will they make cymbals for small rooms at home? We either have extremely loud cymbals (standard) or extremely quiet low volume cymbals that aren't very musical. I'm starting to think a large splash is a more suitable crash cymbal in a smaller space. I hope they cover this topic...drums for home...and no, silent strokes and low volume cymbals aren't the answer here...they're actually too damn quiet...

[@thomaskennydrums]

Sabian have kind of done that with the FRX line, they're quieter (or at least less harsh) than standard cymbals without going into being a low volume cymbal. The really high end Zildjian Ks (Keropes and Constantinoples) are also slightly on the quieter/softer side, although they're obviously still full on cymbals.

[@chimainwere7306]

Large Dry and Large wet halls for me.

[@MrCJHamill]

Yeah same here. Probably leaning slightly towards dry hall.

[@rxph8981]

Anyone else here from sicence class?
