The drum mixes are killer! I love your FAT bass drum sound. In the 90's I assisted a touring drummer as a tech, and he had the Sonor HLD 590. I don't think I have ever carried a heavier snare. It's made to be played after war. LoL!

Regardless of the price, if any drummer walked into my recording studio with that Joyful Noise snare I'd be totally happy - over any of the other ones in this video! 🥁👌🏼 That, and of course that copper Sonor of the "honourable mention" practically leave not much for all the others, for my taste & ear.
@jamesdennett1969 ай бұрын
All amazing, tbf. I own a Solidus which also featured in your snares of 21 or 22, so great to see another Black Panther there this year. Also great to see the Raven in there. Still don't know how they make it for that money. Where are they cutting corners??? And it sounded superb, but I do favour heavy muffling myself. The Gretsch bronze sounded incredible. But for me it's Ronn's Milestone. Sounds just perfect for my taste. And looks unbelievable. The reflections of it even look good. And I loved the honourable mentions 😂😂👍

Essentially, they all sounded great. I have a BDC Big Softy 14" x 6.5", and a Gretsch Bell Brass 14" x 6.5," in my snare arsenal, so I was drawn to those of a similar elk. The Joyful Noise was fantastic, both sonically, and visually... maybe one day I'll own one. Basically, you guys could make cardboard boxes sound great, your dynamics and musicality are spot on. Look forward to the next video! Cheers.

Another year of great snare drums but I would love to see more Aussie hardwood drums and more Aussie drum companies featured. Sleishman drums are still being made and still sound amazing. Evetts Drums and Red Rock Drums are high end snare drums that need more air time as well as a new drum company PA Lovetone Drums making soild Aussie hardwood snare drums. With online price of Brady drums though the roof, drummers need to know that drums similar to brady snares are still being made today.

As always, a great demo. You may have done this already, but a demo on snares? Their diferent sounds. Which give better sensitivity, what which ones may work better at low and higher volumes for different depth of snare drums and materials. I noticed on my deeper snare drums the need to be hit harder to get the full vibration of of standard width snares.

All lovely sounding drums. However, I would bet 50 to 1 that in a blind listening situation no one would be able to tell which was which. Maybe you’d pick out the Sonor because of the shell depth or if one was metal or not but that’s about it. That doesn’t mean that higher end drums aren’t worth it to the discerning player though; they often feel much better to play, have better sensitivity and much smoother hardware.

Canopus great pop. DW great throaty tone. Mapex great versatile sound with great crack. Sonor great full tone. Tama great pop. Night Hawk greatest crack and harmonics (my fav). Milestone great buzz and harmonics. Gretsch great controlled sound. Sonor Signature HLD greatest rock weapon. Ludwig greatest overall and the most balanced. Yamaha greatest funk. Keplinger great singing voice. Would`ve been better to have them tuned and played the same. None of these opinions matter.
