craig deadenstereo Posted April 13, 2004 Report Share Posted April 13, 2004 It was too easy.I was actually reading a thing today about the drummer from Tool who drums in a fibonacci sequence on one of the songs on Lateralus.I also read a thing about how the album comes in two spirals, and is a gift from god - supposedly this can be inferred from some of the lyrics.What you're meant to do is load the album into a wave editor and re-order the tracks and take out all the gaps between songs. The guy worked it out with a mathematical formula. Supposedly the cd is better that way.Craig Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

justincutyou Posted April 13, 2004 Report Share Posted April 13, 2004 I put a pic in the galleries when I get finished scanning them. I use two drum kits. One is a Ludwig 73 or 74 vistablue(the one like Bonham had) that I totally refurbished. I have it set up in a four piece with one hi hat, two crashes and one ride that were provided from Paiste. I also have a Pearl Studio Session kit that I have set up in a four piece with Paiste cymbals as well. I use Vic Firth sticks and I my favorite drummer is Damon Che from Don Cabellero Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fast Caz Posted April 15, 2004 Author Report Share Posted April 15, 2004 Well i dunno really first off was the braces on the toms that attracted me then i tried it out and it had a certain presence and thats the kind of kit i was looking for.also the snare i got with is also very goodplus not alot of people use a ludwig set nowadays so i thought i would use something different and i love it Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Scorge Spike Posted April 15, 2004 Report Share Posted April 15, 2004 Tamas are guff. So are Sonors, for that matter. I actually have a Ludwig too, though a) it's not actually that good, and b) I'll probably have sold it before I could be arsed putting pictures up. I'll be buying a Pacific custom kit next, I think, though the snare might have to be a Mapex.... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest highroller Posted April 16, 2004 Report Share Posted April 16, 2004 Scorge....you talk some fucking shit....Tama's are guff....aye ok then.....NURSE!!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tav Posted April 16, 2004 Report Share Posted April 16, 2004 Scott's got a Tama Swing Star and it's a mightly impressive kit...first thing that strikes you is the projection, very loud. I may get some of the following wrong.Tama Swing Star Kit - Soon to have 3 Rack Toms and 2 Floor Toms.Tama Hammered Shell Snare (Smaller than the other one the kit came with)Tama Iron Cobra Double Bass PedalZildjian A Custom Master Sound Hi-HatsZildjian Z Custom Rock Crash "16 Zildjian Z Custom Rock Crash "18Zildjian Z Custom 22" RideZildjian Oriental China "Trash" "16Zildjian China - I don't know exact modelPaiste 200 Splash (This may have changed)Pearl Rock CowbellTymp Toms (2) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Frosty Jack Posted April 16, 2004 Report Share Posted April 16, 2004 Originally posted by Scorge McBrain:Tamas are guff. So are Sonors, for that matter. I don't think you can say they are guff, they are undoubtedly good quality drums, but they are both quite distinctive sounding. Maybe what you mean is you don't like the sound of them? I used to have a Tama Granstar and the bass drum was a killer. *sniff*Would love to have one again. Failing that I still have the toms if anyone wants to buy them.I use a Yamaha 9000 snare, Pearl twin pedals and Sabians all the way.Pacifics are quite nice, but its bigger brother the DWs are fantastic.

Dan G Posted April 16, 2004 Report Share Posted April 16, 2004 Our drummer in MMW - Nick - has a tama kit and when jamming at his house, it is EASILY the nicest sounding kit I have heard (in person, so to speak)The double kick/snare and toms sound fucking mint!

Fast Caz Posted April 16, 2004 Author Report Share Posted April 16, 2004 Well i must say when i played a tama starclassic maple i was very impressed by the sound and the hardware was very high quality but my ludwig does me welland plus the double kick pedals sound awesome on it Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Scorge Spike Posted April 16, 2004 Report Share Posted April 16, 2004 Originally posted by Ben Quik:Scorge....you talk some fucking shit.... No Ben, I post opinions. Talking shite is something best left for Wastelanders/MMW vocalists (jest). I just despise the sound of those sodding Tamas, the bass drum especially. Played three different types of 'em, and only one of them even approached being tolerable, and that had Remo skins and the snare was a Yamaha anyway. (Pedal was a Ludwig too, now I think about it...)Best kit I've played was either a downsized version of Len's kit of doom with the Portnoy snare almost invisible to the human eye, or probably the DW that one of me mates had on loan for a while. Pacific's have the best actual feel, hence my desire for one. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
