Tonight we're playing with a keyboard, double bass and trombone - a new project... Can't tell You how excited I am to finally take out the whole 10-12-14-18 S Classix out for a spin... I'm sure it would go GREAT!!!  Hope to have some pictures - getting a sound file would be almost impossible...  Wish me luck!!!

Hey Goki, Sounds like a great musical adventure. Playing the whole kit will be a blast I'm sure. After doing so much on a Bop set for an extended period of time, I had to deliberately use the other toms when I went back to a larger set. It felt awkward at first, then the Universe found perfect balance...in my head if not in my playing.   Do well and have fun!!!!

Hey Goki, This sounds like a very interesting configuration; I hope you have fun with it.  I think you ended up getting the kick tuning sortetd out, but I do not recall where you ended up with head combinations and tensions. |

The gig went perfect - I'm very pleased with the outcome. So were the rest of the musicians. We played 3 sets - the first 2 were phenomenal. The audience was pleased - they stayed until 02a.m. The club owner was very pleased. Unfortunately, we played outdoors, and the lighting was poor to take photos. Cliff - I solved the bass drum sound problem by lowering the patch 1" down, and lowering the batter. Right now, it sounds GREAT. I need to tweak with it just a little bit to make it sound PERFECT!!!

That's all great to hear, Goki. As far as your kick goes, can you articulate what the difference between "great" and "perfect" would be? |

I need to tweak with it just a little bit to make it sound PERFECT!!! Somewhere in the earlier string I think I got myself confused about your head setup. Is it now still a 2-ply Emperor batter and a PS3 resonant? How far out of center is the strike point now? |

Gregory, GREAT means the bass drum has enormous potential, but I've placed a piece of cloth inside PERFECT would be the bass drum without the cloth... Cliff - I will measure that and do a thorough analysis during this week, when I go to the rehearsal room... |
