[Barakonyi]

Awsome dude ! :D

Sitting here and moving to the rhythm

[MrSmashKab]

@Barakonyi Such a great song. :D Thanks for the comment!

[TjRmusic24]

Snare sounds pretty bad.. Tighten dat bitch up xD

[AndyG214]

@TjRmusic24 the snare sounds amazing!! lol

[TjRmusic24]

@AndyG214 If by amazing you mean it sounds like hitting a shed with a baseball bat, then yeah, amazing. :)

[MrSmashKab]

@TjRmusic24 aside from a bit of ringing I'm getting from the walls which is fixed now with my new conditioning the snare sounds great. It's tuned properly. Your backyard jam video was not impressive enough to make me think otherwise.

[TjRmusic24]

@MrSmashKab What the hell does my drunken outside improv have to do with the sound of your snare? Makes no sense. I'm not the only person that has said it sounds average either....

[MrSmashKab]

@TjRmusic24 Basically it means you haven't proven yourself competent enough to convince me that my snare sounds bad. and since you put it in the form of an insult rather then constructive criticism I feel the need to point that out.

[TjRmusic24]

@MrSmashKab Haha, I don't need to prove anything to you after seeing that fill at 1:58 :P

[MrSmashKab]

@TjRmusic24 Riveting Tale Chap.

[MrSmashKab]

@AndyG214 You sir are a gentlemen and a scholar.

[iMakDrumVids]

omg bro tighten up the snare

[MrSmashKab]

@iMakDrumVids Wheres your drum vids. IMAC DRUM VIDS.

[JakeBurnsRedx16]

Your china is upside down. :P

[MrSmashKab]

@JakeBurnsRedx16 Nope actually, You're China cymbal is upside down. Which is hilarious because flipped china's are much more common these days. But I assure you, if you actually do your research you'll discover that my china is IN FACT right side up.

[MrSmashKab]

@JakeBurnsRedx16 Either that or you're trolling me hard. in which case. Props. XD

[TheRevProdigy777]

@MrSmashKab no it really is upside-down

[MrSmashKab]

@TheRevProdigy777 You are in fact, In correct. Please Google Search the history of the China cymbal.

[TheRevProdigy777]

@MrSmashKab i googled it. we're both wrong. either way is correct and varies between genres.

[MrSmashKab]

@TheRevProdigy777 YES Exactly! Thank you. :D

[DrummerCentral]

@MrSmashKab well JakeBurnsRedx16 is right...the china is suppose to be the other for a couple of reasons, the main reason is so it doesn't eat up ure sticks. But play how ure comfortable...keep it up man, good stuff

[MrSmashKab]

@DrummerCentral look man do I seriously need to make a video of the history of the China Cymbal?!?! I'm telling you Google fucking search that shit, My china cymbal is right side up. NOT THAT THERE IS ANNNNY THING WRONG WITH A FLIPPED CHINA! There is one right behind my ride as well. but GAWD!!! It's that way for a reason, So I have Waaaaaaaaaaaaay more control over the sound it produces. and If you notice I never actually hit the China on the edge its all done within the curve.

[MrDRUMBUM55]

@MrSmashKab Its all about personal preference if you want to crash the china more then flip it where the curve is pointing down but if you want to use it as sort of ride/crash source then flip where the curve is pointing up

[MrSmashKab]

@MrDRUMBUM55 Yup I agree 100%, But try telling these rock band kids that lol XD. also add to which bell side up is technically the top of the cymbal, granted there are bell down chinas. this one however is not and has a drastic curve which makes it much better being right side up. or bell side up which ever term you prefer.

[vics1]

nice set up!

[MrSmashKab]

@vics1 ty ty It just got even better. but you won't see till the next next batch of vids :P

[LukeHollandDrums]

Solid man! :]

[nolimetanghari]

@LukeHollandDrums How bout you make a cover of this song brah? 

[MrSmashKab]

@nolimetanghari even I wanna see that. :P

[MrSmashKab]

@LukeHollandDrums lolol thanks man! But I got a looong way to go before I reach your level of technical prowess and production quality!

[ultramaxify]

@LukeHollandDrums Keep on commenting on any video . I will thumbs it up for you :D

[MrSmashKab]

@ultramaxify I've notice a direct correlation with Mr. Awesome drummer AKA Luke Holand. Commenting on my video, and getting 10 subs, 15 likes and 15ish comments in one night. Hat's off, that guy is pretty kick ass. :D

[XXXMetal]

Good job man, I wish I could hear the whole kit in person but the snare's got a great pop!

[MrSmashKab]

@XXXMetal Yeah it sounds even better now with the room being conditioned. Soooo Tight, we should rock out some In flames covers and mega man covers sometime!
