My First Drum Kit (Yamaha Custom Stage Adv.)

[thetruckman1]

u need to get into the music and hit them hander

[SuperVicfirth]

put a mic in your bass

[JeffHardyFreak98]

have you played drums before you got the kit?

[nickeax]

@JeffHardyFreak98 Yeah yeah! :-)

[JeffHardyFreak98]

@nickeax thought so

[masterjasch]

is this the only mic you're using? what type is it and how do you record? do you use an interface? :-)

[nickeax]

@masterjasch I think I had an SM57 on the kick. The other mic is a Rode NT1-a and both mics are plugged into a Zoom H4. Easy!

[axacingdude]

hey dont your parents go mad at you when u play then drums and yh nice kit

[nickeax]

@axacingdude I don't live with my parents anymore, so they don't care! :)

[Ryanpeacedrums]

[TheMARCELODRUMER]

[nickeax]

Hi how are you? IIRC, this kit retailed for around AU$1200.00. I got it for that price with the Paiste cymbal pack thrown in.

[paaskemus]

Omg.. you're amazing. Check out some of my videos. :)

[nickeax]

First drum kit I've owned, not the first I've had a go on. :)

[bcancun123]

[Chibigoat]

Yeah seriously. Decimate the shit out of your cymbals

[Ruzic99]

[WillKills7]

nice job 4 a beginer. that kit should take u far. all u need to do is gradually add on to it.

[chaldoski]

ok kid, u understand the basic, now, ¡ play HARDER!____I have the same drum, the accoustic sound is awesome

[nickeax]

Thanks. When I grow up, I will hit harder. :-)

[AshDrums7]

No. Play with technique and how you are playing is fine. Just work on some other beats.

[nidzazz]

Ko tebi dade stage custom, majke ti

[nickeax]

JA misliti nešto je bila izgubljen unutra prevod.

[italianboy2k7]

i think its important to start on a good kit..unlike me i started on a active pro lol...well done playing

[nickeax]

Yeah, I think this kit is good for beginners. And with better heads and cymbals, it may last many years.

But I not going to rush out and buy those things until I can actually play!

[mrhappycow13]

why does every new player play so soft. Hit those babys. anyway great job you kept tempo great. most important part of drumming. so you are set. Please post more videos of you playing. You will be a great drummer jsut practice for atleast 1/2 an hour a day. and you are set

[nickeax]

Yeah I try to practice whenever I can!

[gillzpwn]

you'll be a good drummer thats for sure...

[nickeax]

Ha ha, thanks. I think it'll take a LOT of work though...

[ItsJustSkating]

You better stick with that because I still have my first kit after 2 years and it is a crappy westbury beginner kit. Just consider yourself lucky. good playing aside from that.

[nickeax]

I'm not lucky to own a drum kit!

[furrybeans]

that kit is way to good for u....i had to start out on a crappy second hand use slingerland

[nickeax]

I think I know what you mean!

[Headcrabs16]

or a cheapo brand.

or electric drum kit

[maggot4life10]

i just got my first kit today

[nickeax]

Have fun mate! And I wanna see a video too. :)

[maggot4life10]

first i have to fix the bass petal its missing a screw and scratching the head

[mrhappycow13]

your beater is loose isnt it. that is not good. never scratch the head. unless it is your own hehehehehehe. anyway hope to see a video of your drums soon I love seeing drum porn

[lowsled1]

First time playing?? It tooke me like 2 weeks to be able to do that >>' Kit is beasty. Love the snare , may I have it? :D

[nickeax]

Ha ha... I have played other people's kits in the past, but this is my first kit. The snare does sound good, but I tuned it following a guide on here somewhere.

[TheInfamousKyle]

You are a very seasoned musician, it's suprising to me that you are just learning the drums. Then again, I'm still wanting a kit REAL BAD.

[nickeax]

The time was right!

[danielvr4]

nice drums kit i have one and realy is verry good ....

[nickeax]

After a quick tune, yes.

[colamoonpig]

Excellent first performance Nick ! :o)

[nickeax]

Thank you! But I was holding the sticks incorrectly.
