[decongeniato]

One point less for Carl.

[NerfLad]

What a douche canoe.

[dejahthoris]

@NerfLad You obviously have no clue about classic rock. This is the greatest drummer on the planet. Go back to listening to Katie Perry- and get your GED.

[NerfLad]

@dejahthoris You spelled her name wrong ;)

[NerfLad]

@dejahthoris Before you're more of an asshole.... you spelled her name **incorrectly.

Carl sei sempre il più grande!

[PukkatronicAllstars]

Is he saying how good he is and what great drums he's got or is he taking the Korg shilling? I think he was too busy playing wanky prog rock to notice that Kraftwerk made their own electronic drums in the early to mid 70s.

[PeganCove]

@PukkatronicAllstars Comparing Kraftwork to anything on the level of Palmer is like comparing a dirty ashtray to a royal crown. Too bad wankers Kraftwork did the electronic drum thing in 1975 and Palmer did Toccata in 1973. Palmer WAS much too busy...doing it first.

[milkminotaur]

Why does he need that snare sound if he has the best in the world? Endless toy wankery.

Carl's memory is rather short, regarding his use of electronic drums. He used them during the 80's with Asia. In fact, he had 3 of them that had huge faces on them, which he used during the debut LP and Alpha.

@IwshIcldstrtover

You wrong! Carl played the very first electronic drums (several Moog 1130 percussion controller used to trigger a Moog synthesizer) in 1973, during "Brain Salad Surgery" recording sessions, on "Toccata" by Alberto Ginastera.

[IwshIcldstrtover]

@manticore1962 I am well aware of this, and I am not wrong. The synthesizer pickups were built into the British stainless steel drum set that he used and were developed by Carl's technician called Nick Rose. Bob Moog didn't want to take it as far as Carl did, so he asked Nick to help him with it. Carl did use electronic drums during Asia as well, and that was what I was pointing out.

[manticore1962]

@IwshIcldstrtover Yeah right. Carl used Nick's pickups, that would trigger 8 small synthesizers, after he broken some of the Moog 1130 (they were so fragile for Carl's energy). But, I think it was a normal drum set . The stainless steel drum you talk was used by Carl during the Works recording sessions (1977). With ASIA he starts to use electronic drums based on digital sample technology. Anyway, maybe I'm wrong (I'm a keyboard player) but I love Carl' powerful drumming. Nice to meet you :-)

[iantoau]

i own an original wavedrum that has limitations but is an awesome instument. i own two new wavedrums and, don't get me wrong, they are awesome instruments.but the korg oriental is more to my idea of what i want from a wavedrum. korg hear this - i want to control A SINGLE SOUND from my wavedrum. rim or otherwise. not two sounds in combinations.korg oriental wavedrum is getting there. and give me a usb editor. the knobs give me the shits.

[MrMusiclifer]

Carl Palmer was an icon for me back in the 70's and still is today-I can remember sitting with my binocs watching him play dual gongs behind his kit during a solo performance while touring with ELP and ringing a huge church bell by suspended above him with a rope dangling down in his mouth! Met him at a drum clinic later on and what a nice guy-besides an awesome showman behind the set. Keep it up Carl and thank you Korg-p.s. I played a friend's wavedrum for about 2 hours and want one of my own!

[JohnBertotti]

Now that's a great endorsement! I loved the vid . I enjoy hearing why a star like Carl loves his wavedrum. I would like to hear more from him, it's inspiring to see how these guys can use their wavedrums!

[dejahthoris]

@arnebarnard Id like to see what you are doing in your sixties. This guy has been rocking out for decades and is the best in this class, there is no better. Get an education.

[Ferdiphone]

wow ! thank you..!!

[cvl85]

Pro!!

[BenG9C9]

Love the demo. It's nice to get insight from a pro/veteran musician on these products.
