Every Drummers New Best Friend!
« on: January 02, 2008, 01:41:31 PM »
LGM,

So... i got this new toy and i think every drummer should have it.

In gospel music there is not too many percussionist... probably because you cant really play shout music with a cowbell and timbales... lol.


But... I think every drummer should have a few snaps, claps, 808 kicks, and the ocassional bongo/cowbell in their setup. This new toy of mine comes with some nice sounds but you can also sample sounds and/or loops.

It's a Roland SPD-S and its about 300 bucks new... Anyone else have it? Have question?

Check it out...



p.s. I do not work for roland but maybe i will get a check in the mail for marketing... lol.

...yeah for real.  I see the Remo Hybrid Head Combo and the lovely DW5000 series pedals.  I have to pick up that 5000 Hihat stand to complete my collection.

Indeed. 

I use my 5000 hat stand combined with the Pearl rubber "washers" (part NP-210/2) as well as the Pearl rubber seat washer (part NP208).  It brings more clarity to my hats (as if the Meinl Fast Hats or HHX Groove Hats needed more clarity, lol).
