hey, im looking to buy a saluda cymbal, not sure wether to get the 17'' decadence or 17'' mist x.

what would you reccomend?

i want something that is more a metal/hardcore cymbal and wont crack easy as i like to hit hard :)

[GHANDICORN]

How do you like the saludas? Really like your style and snare sound. Subscribed.

[tfcdan08]

@GHANDICORN - i def dig these saludas. remind me of some aax crashes sorta. they did a real good job with the finish as well!

the snare is awesome... but the die cast hoops that come on it are horrible! lol. i need to get a regular 13 inch tripple flanged and put that on there.

glad you dig the style and sound! my other vids i think are even better tho... haha! well some of them at least.

[RiftTripper]

LOL Never seen a big man double pedal before. Great man keep up the good work.

[tfcdan08]

thanks man!! check out the video response vid i added to this tho... its MUCH better... and ,y feet are like 3 times the speed in it... check it!!

[hawaiianjackass]

i was thinking about buying that snare off musicians friend. but i wanted to hear how it sounded first. think its possible to make a video using just the snare only if you want to though. right on man. btw badass on that double kick

[tfcdan08]

@hawaiianjackass yeah for sure man. i can get one done either later on today or tomorrow for you , man! ill shoot you a message on here with a link to it, cool?

[xsavagedrummerx]

question. just got a mapex set at school... trying to tune it up nice. everything sounds great except the kick.. how did you make yours sound decent?

[tfcdan08]

@xsavagedrummerx - what size is your bass drum? i use an Evans Emad2 on the batter with aquarian resonant with a 4 inch port hole. blanket in the bass drum as well... not too much against the batter head... a little bit... but mostly against the resonant. tuned pretty low, with the batter head slightly higher than the resonant. also wood beaters on my pedal! :-) does that help at all?

[xsavagedrummerx]

yeah a little.. on my kit at home i use an evans emad as well but at school everything is just the mapex heads that came with the kit... i will try to convince them to by and emad but until then i will just have to work with what i got and play with it a little, thanks

[xsavagedrummerx]

yeah

[tfcdan08]

@xsavagedrummerx  this is also a 20" birch shell bass drum... youres is most likely a 22 right?

[HolidayAvenue01]

Hey! Very nice cymbals!

I have a question about your snare though!

Is your ddrum S4 snare any good? I've been thinking about getting it but I haven't seen any videos on it until now.

[tfcdan08]

yeah its def great for the money man. i love the sound of a maple snare. its actually tuned a little bit lower than i usually tune just to see how it sounded recorded with this single micing thing. i have a few other videos with it but havnt uploaded them yet. they sound good tuned in all ranges too.

[HolidayAvenue01]

Alright. Its kind of hard to find that happy medium of maple, quality, and projection in a snare drum in that price range.

Is the tuning range good? Can it go from a nice fat sound to a poppy snap?

[tfcdan08]

i really like them man. they sound good together and match up well with my others and my drums. no complaints yet! lol. im going to go record a better video in a minute actually i think!! ill let you know when its posted. should be able to hear them a little better...

[ohsusana1107]

Seems like Saluda aligned your crashes up nicely. How do you like them so far?

[boysxdoxcry]

badass homie!

[tfcdan08]

thanks!! i had just set u[p those cymbals... wasnt warmed up or even stretched out. it is pretty sloppy though... haha

[kreepmaster]

hellyeah...nice tone man!

[FruitSmoothieee]

great vids man; if only I was as good as you.

[tfcdan08]

yeah so this kinda sucks... was just testing out the new cymbals real quick.
