Homemade Hoop Crasher

[@BassAndBeard]

Sounds almost like an electronic snare. Like a dubstep or house snare.

[@NoLoveDeepWebbb]

+4ZD73X That's the idea. Jojo mayer has his own signature hoop crash and he use it for that kind of electronic sound.

[@arando4359]

BassAndBeard i would say more of a LinnDrum or 909 sound. Like 80’s Synthwave.

[@RegebroRepairs]

It's like it has a gated reverb, which is fun.

[@LIBERTYorD34TH]

You can get a similar "electronic" sounding snare by placing a small splash cymbal on your snare and hitting the cymbal, i first saw it used by Benny Greb back in the day.

[@LanceCampeau]

Man... I love that grove starting at 9:37 ... 80's electro "fresh" to the max

[@Guitarlife17]

LanceCampeau Dude, if you like that sound, you should get into Tycho. Try, "Dye - Tycho" you'll dig it. this guy is pretty damn good though I too highly enjoy that composed piece at the end

[@LanceCampeau]

I'm already all over that... his shit is groovy as hell

[@Liljohnnyprod]

LanceCampeau you should make a cymbal out of a cowbell

[@the6ig6adwolf]

Internet Boy I just found your comment and checked out Tycho, thank you for suggesting it to Lance. I've been lookin for something like this for awhile without any luck. its cool how a song without lyrics can convey a distinct emotion.

[@jacobfarriester2536]

Another new Tycho fan thanks to you. Cheers!

[@SamChaneyProductions]

Wow I am totally impressed. When you said you were going to rivet the two of them together, I didn't have very high expectations, but the sound is incredible. It sounds like a stack of layered various samples like snare, hi hat and clap, often used as a "snare" in electronic music.

[@Gretschnut]

Just discovered you and became a subscriber about a month or two back and find your videos very creative, informative and enjoyable. Envy you your situation of dovetailing three of your passions; drums, wood/metal working and video production into a synergistic, single creative outlet. I assume it must bring you hours of enjoyment. I say "assume" because it's hard to tell with your low-key persona, but of course that's part of your charm. Keep 'em coming man.

[@half-gram-dab]

The song he played sounds like when they’re switching from adult swim to Cartoon Network

[@jayvalle50]

Lol just heard something exactly like what you're describing a few mins ago

[@pkuehbauch166]

Great drumming. Please wear gloves when dealing with machines and sharp metal. You may need your fingers for all that drumming.-Your Mother.

It's sounds like a electionic drum set with the snare drum tuned low

[@black-eyedspinnerwillow7639]

Yeah it really does

[@potassiumchloride2542]

So is it good to have it sound like that?!😂

the chops in this video are insane. I love that synth sound paired with the slight harshness of his hat and stacked cymbals. all I can say is, Dope!

[@LukeDatema]

Dang, dude. That's not only genius, but it sounds awesome. I like it!

[@Yunck]

"and by delicate, I mean..I'm gonna use a hammer"

[@liquidlightproductio]

I really like your inventiveness. You have a knack for turning something that is useless to gold. Great drumming! Very well done!

[@imwearingcons1137]

I love how far you have gone to have a truly unique sound and we dig it!

[@nachoniek4461]

reason I like your channel: YOU ARE SUPER ORIGINAL!

[@jbundy95]

Killer beats at the end! I agree, the low tuning sounds dope.

[@richbeecher22]

Hi there man, I gotta say, I have never actually commented on a KZbin video before, but I just absolutely had to here. I'm a massive fan of your builds, projects and of course yourself as a personality/ musician. Your drumming segment in the later half of this video was so incredibly crisp that you have completely inspired me to make my own! Nice one man! This is what it's all about! All the best to you dude :)

[@ginemginem]

Just wondering, did you make it? How does it sound?

[@N7_CZSK]

12:31 - awesome beat

[@Oliver_Hallowee]

love the sound when he's just throwing it up and hitting it.

[@joelalexander4513]

Love the imagination and skills on display here..sounds electric, and the Vangelis leads are very vibey! Nicely done!

[@drumsNstuff79]

The combination of hoop crasher, your hammered snare, and the BFSD sound really cool! Success!

[@123abc123zyx]

Really cool what you did here! I gotta say, I'm often very impressed by your ingenuity and ability to get it done.

[@matshagstrom9839]

your drumming form is excellent. barely moving forearms with perfect wrist action. looks so effortless nice video

[@augustburnsred3541]

wow those grooves at the end. simply awesome man

[@jesuswater6931]

3:34 i luv how he just has a log in his house

[@xaxua]

I feel like your awesome 80’s EZ synth playing is getting a little overlooked in the comments. Sweet stuff!

[@joeldelavega768]

Great creative playing and I like the ingenuity with the home made effects cymbals.

[@garyfoutch5974]

I love your channel and your vids. Simply amazes me, the things you do.. can't be a hand full of drummers like you around most parts of this country (?). Thank you,...very entertaining.

[@nameofthegame9664]

Your “lathe” looks beyond sketchy

[@wilsoncrocker]

the center shaft was so wobbly lol

[@alexanderpelletier6632]

Thank you SO much for making this! I've been wanting to see you make this for ages haha. glad it turned out well!

[@eddiemejia3034]

Besides the cool grooves and tune, I was very impressed with your ingenuity and craftsmanship!

[@6riffmaster]

Is this the cymbal project season 6?

[@LanceCampeau]

+James Dix lol... at least someone is making cymbal related videos these days... I'm still getting things ready.

[@6riffmaster]

***** It takes time to make something great. The video just very much reminded me of your series.

[@JagdeepSinghShergill]

+LanceCampeau you're good keep it up. need more people doong cymbal hammering vids

[@DavidGamero]

no more cymbal project now lol

[@JesseBroman]

I just have to say that the cut out of the cymbal sounded awesome when you were demoing it at 4:40

[@everettdea]

I really liked this idea. It really sounds cool. Wondering if jingles could have been held nicely by the rivets?

[@mdstevens0612]

This sounded so freaking amazing man...

[@Mezurashii5]

The drumset looks kinda funny with all the bells and whistles yet no crashes. It sounds amazing and you get pretty creative with it though!

[@TheSilverblade41]

The groove you pulled at 10:00 was so freaking tasty dude. Awesome video!

[@OWitbroke]

idk why but your videos make me feel cozy

[@oldowl4290]

Considering how much the Sabian crasher costs this is definitely on my to-do list. I'd like to see more of how you created the little hats. Any videos on that?

[@buckstarchaser2376]

Wow! That plate marked Mein Byznatch(?) sounds so beautiful. It seems to melt together with the notes that play with it too.

[@daneager473]

That was my favorite instrumental thing that I've heard on your channel thus far!

[@NerismaStudios]

I have the Sabian Hoop Crasher, have had it for a good 3 years now. I like the product I have, but from what I hear here and from the one I own, yours sounds well enough that you can get by with it. Jojo usually tunes the snare that uses the Hoop Crasher way low, so that's how he can get his punch with it. I really need to try this with a BFSD, because that sounded absolutely killer.

[@GG-wl6bg]

This opens up a new world of versatility for drumming!

[@cycle_365]

Awesome video David, and great playing, love the way you laced the 16th note singles with 16th note doubles!

[@JuanCarlitoMendoza]

Man it sounds great!!!!! Really sounds good with the Big Fat Snare drum! Great stuff as always!!

[@rdavidr]

+Juan Carlito Mendoza (Carlito) Thanks man!

[@rhythmfield]

Nice linear groove and feel! Love the whole recycling concept too.

[@Zionist_Eternal]

Been watching your stuff for a while. This one made me ding the bell.

[@RAGEmonkey1234]

Hey dude, first off your your channel is by far my favorite one on KZbin, secondly I've been looking into buying a Yamaha Jingle Wedge but I'm not willing to dish out that much cash for something I know is easy/cheap to make. You should do a video about a DIY jingle wedge! Either way thank you for doing what you do man. I'm excited to see what else you will come up with this year!

[@rdavidr]

One of the first videos I uploaded was how to make one for cheap. That was like 7 years ago and the video was horrible haha. I do plan to remake that video tho

[@federicofrontera8378]

THIS VIDEO IT'S AMAZING!!! Congratulations, the sound of the snare with the hoop crasher is so good!!! You're fantastic!!!

[@Mityob67]

Talk about originality and having your own sound--wow! Plus the grooves were sick.

[@Mikey-uo1ij]

I love how rdavidr just uses all cymbals its so nice

[@crimsun7186]

Sounds great. The hoop crasher also comes with clamps to keep it in place and they change the sound a bit.

[@rdavidr]

+Crimson Sunrise I tried to swindle sabian into sending me some, but I never got a response haha

[@crimsun7186]

rdavidr These clamps look similar to something called DrumClip, which could serve to hold the crasher in place.

[@Josh131996]

Duuuuuude that jam at the end. And nice doubles!! Love this one.

[@SAMUELVISCOSI]

Was very confused as to a proper application of this but when u did the little demo I was sold. Sounds tight

[@SAMUELVISCOSI]

Sounds almost like a drum machine snare. It has the lofi-esque sound to it.

[@Jazzrappcat]

Might actually sound (and look) better than the original hoop crasher, so good job!

[@staciepaul]

Nicely done, good presentation, good filming, good craftsmanship, and good chops. Thanks for sharing your talents.

[@patrickwayne9074]

I stumbled onto this but the sound is really good for simulating some of the stuff we added in studio. Will definitely try this.

[@Acypto]

That fast forward hammering was satisfying

[@seanerikray1]

Pretty wild dude. It sounds like electric drums. Great job.

[@TheComputerCowboy]

Genius, man! Pure genius! Great sound. Also, I'm gonna steal your idea and toy around with some old, broken and/or cheap cymbals to see how I can make them sound.

[@lpsfantastic405]

That beat is so freaking dope. I revisit this video once every two weeks

[@adamkeay2388]

Great job. Feels like electronic drum sounds on an acoustic set.

[@revyu6754]

I am not even a drummer (I play Bass and Guitar) but I love watching your Videos. And I really begin thinking of buying me a cheap drumkit and start practicing and experimenting with building some fancy stuff. Cool vids. Keep it up! :D

[@williambock6975]

Those ZBTs sounded great(for cheap cymbals). Apparently you stumbled upon a way to make cheap cymbals sound decent as long as a lathe is involved to get rid of extra weight! Ha! I’ve been playing for 30 years and never experienced a hoop crasher. I like it! My only gripe is I’m gonna have “No mo...No mo...No mo...No mo...” in my head all night.;-)

[@MatthewParsonsDrumsAndAudio]

Those sound killer! I've thought buying buying a hoop crasher, but was always skeptical if it was worth the 200 bucks. Now I might have to.

[@scarecrowboat5599]

The drumming at the end is fantastic

[@danajutzi]

Hey - nice vid! (at first sorry for my translation of the following sentences) I made my own "Ring" from an single old low-budget cymbal and it really sounds great - but i recogniced the head of the snare drum got an "o" which exactly was at the same size of the inner circle of "the Ring". I was considering if the head could break from that. Well I used Gaffatape in small squares and put them around the inner circle of "the Ring" and the "o" disappears. Maybe other drummers would be interested in this so I got back to this video and posted it.

[@TheVirusBug]

Sounds pretty good with low-tuning, good job rdavidr !

[@jakobturley]

I love the disco type beat at the end. It sounded so cool!!!

[@goldendrums777]

Those sound great. I love your videos, man. You have high production value, and you combine the drums and d.i.y. projects, which is ALL very fascinating to me. Could you do a short "hihat with and without bells" video? I struggle to hear what the bells are actually doing. Not a negative criticism, just curious.
