This is really cool. I spent 400 bucks on a full low profile rack from Gibraltar and haven't used with my acoustic kit since buying the crosstown aluminium hardware. I can swap the low profile rack with the crappy Yamaha DTX-10 rack and it will look cooler. Love these vids!!

Hey just so you guys know, big boxes like Home Depot or Lowes sell like 10 or 12 foot sticks of metal conduit pipe that are super close if not exactly 1.5 inches and work great with my Gibraltar clamps and also work with my old Yammy plastic clamps of all types. I’d imagine any kind of drum clamp works. Haven’t figured out a way to paint galvanized pipe a good way but if you want cheap or long tubes or just want to DIY your own rack projects and don’t care about the color of the tubes then it’s a great way to go.

Nice vid and nice explanation! I have a converted TAMA C-Jam Pancake kit, and i use 2 sturdy cymbal stands, and many clamps that holds my 3 small toms, 2 crashes, 1 hihat, 1 ride, and alesis sample pad pro 4 :) I'm totally fine with this. But you have great ideas, that i can probably use in the future

@singemfrc 3 жыл бұрын
Thanks for the suggestion about removing that horrible square bar in the middle of the compact rack. Cant ever get my toms where I want them. Definitely going to do that. Also that connection for mounting a cymbal arm on the end of a pipe looks extremely useful I'm always wishing I could move my right most cymbal further to the right but I cant because it hits the clamp on the end of the bar, but if I use one of those I could move it another 6 inches to the right which would be perfect!
@TheeDrumWorkshop 3 жыл бұрын
The annoying thing about that rack is that they used to do the same style rack but with a proper middle bar but replaced it with that. I imagine it was either to save some money or to drive people towards an upgrade. Yeah, the end post mounts are super useful! There's also the option of using an adjustable multi clamp which could be mounted off the vertical pipe then the angle changed so your cymbal could still go upwards rather than horizontal. I went into that on the other rack video if that's of any interest/use! :) Thanks for watching!

@bhirsch71 3 жыл бұрын
Your videos are extremely useful. I’m recommending them to all my drummer friends. Question: What type of clamp can I use to connect a hi-hat stand to a Roland v-drum rack? I have a 3-legged DW 3000 series hi-hat stand, wish I’d have gotten the two legged model! And I have a Roland TD-17kvx kit, with a DW 3000 series double bass pedal, and want to group the hi-hat pedal in closer. I’ve seen drummers connect hi-hat stands directly to the down tube of the Roland MDS-Compact rack. I just don’t know specifically which clamp to buy to do that.

Running into this issue trying to combine the parts from my td-11 kv kit and a td-4K kit I picked up the other day on FB marketplace for only 250$ us w/ brand new dw throne. Trying to figure out a unique way to setup those Roland mds-4 racks has been a major pain in the ass. Thankfully the td-4 rack did not have the square bar connecting the two longer poles. Still trying to create a new setup has been aggravating. Yesteday I rage quit when I became so frustrated with I. Going to try again today. I absolutely love the module rack. Gibraltar makes an Edrum rack that is very similar to what you built. I’ve been tempted to buy that rack online today, however it’s chrome and all I have are black Roland rack Bars and that might look weird. Normally looks aren’t a big deal if it gets the job done, when mixing black and chrome I just don’t like the look

I've had the over the top "rack everything" setup to the stealth setups. While rack systems look amazing, let you place everything exactly where you want it, and they do free up floor space, they are a pain to load in and out and transport.

Great video as always! At the 50 second mark, what is the brand of tom mount you have shown? I am looking for a mount the allows me to extend further from the rack clamp and this looks like it would work.
@TheeDrumWorkshop 3 жыл бұрын
Thanks David! That L-rod is just an Alesis L-rod from their Strike line, held in place with a standard metal rack multi clamp. drum-tec sell them on their own pretty cheap under "Alesis Electronic Drum Rack L-Rod Pad Holder". They say Alesis only on them but I think that's just because they're slightly undersized compared to other brands but they work fine with most pads I've tried.

I've got a few that I use but nothing on the store as of yet. An electronic pack is on the to-do list but not quite sure when. If you find the first video I put out (Create Natural Electronic Drum Sounds), I do a walkthrough of how I made a couple, though you'd need to find a couple of samples or to use the closest-sounding stock sounds in their place.

my advice ...skip everything and just get a pearl or yamaha rack ..my old roland rack was awful , but nothing was a bad as the alesis strike rack i commend them for coating the pipes black ..its a great look , however, its a SMOOTH coating ...meaning ,,, even gibralters road series clamps slip on these ..me , i'm waiting for my taxes and i'm making a pearl drum rack from sound odds and ends from my accustic rack ...no slip, no fuss, no muss ... the plastic rack clamps , especially from alesis , just suck ..lol the DRUMS from alesis are just fine ...but i've had to pick my e-drums up off the floor too many times lol
