Congrats Tim. The are beautiful looking and sounding drums. Glad you like the show. Let your friends know where we are.

Absolutely!

You can't go wrong with either really. As one method of deciding: if you're playing bigger venues go the Sonor, and the broadkaster for room that appreciate all the resonanting gretsch love at the drummers seat. It's kinda a win win. Regards tony

Thanks for the words; we love it too.

Do it, we absolutely loved this kit.

Absolutely!

Your drums will have risen in value since then. All the best.

We loved the extra love from a players perspective that the Broadkaster gives out. Glad you loved hearing it too. Regards tony

I had a standard too. This is much better.

Sure was.

Hey Joe, I'll contact Canopus and see who's their Australian supplier is. Sometimes we can track a kit down to a willing shop or player who doesn't mind us making a film. Thanks for the request. Kind regards Tony M

Sure does

Joshua, thats the comment of the year... so funny. I'm glad these films are helping people hear and decide what to buy from their own ears. As far as the list you popped up, can I say, I have about 30 kits atm, all rare, pro and high end, usually I swap a kit out every few weeks, but I've had the Ludwig neusonic in for six months now, I think it's the cherry/maple blend that I'm really loving, not just because it's different but because it give me back more than I give it. You won't be disappointed with the sound of the broadcaster, but for bang for buck the neusonic is a ride.

Hi Anthony, The exact cymbals are - 15” Natural Light Hi Hats 19” Natural Crash 21” Natural Crash/Ride 20” Natural Crash

They sound great hey!

Hey Nathaniel, thanks for the kind words. I've worked in many studios in my time, so I have used almost everything. My problem was that the recordings often don't sound the way a drum, or my drums sound like. So I went on an exploration for a few years to find mics that translate a drums tone and vibe best. I A/B'ed dozens on mics, only to find that I need great mic pres first, so we use Audient pres outside of the studio. Inside we have Phoenix, Avalon, Buzz Audio, Universal Audio and Summit Audio. In both cases (live and studio) the mics are the same: *Royer R10 matched pair ribbons on over heads *Earthworks DM20 on top of snare *Warm Audio W47 as room/kick Now we are not sound engineers, so we are still working to improve the technical execution side of things, but we 100% know what does and doesn't work, so we just keep heading in that direction. In the studio we also use: *Hi hats - Royer R10 and/or Audix ADX51 condenser *Small toms - Earthworks DM20 or Heil PR25's *floor toms - Audix D4's and/or D6 for more low end and occasionally earthworks *snare bottom - beyer TG 150 *kick & room - Audix D6, and/or Heil PR40, and/or Lewitt DTP640 REX, and/or Warm Audio 47 Fet, and/or Aventone cv12 BLA, and/or Violet amethyst vintage, and/or Beyer TG D71c plate, and lastly a DIY Sub kick (see video of the making coming). I match the mic to the drum, rather than confirming the drum to the mic. FYI: We have no financial interest or beneficiary in any of the products that we use at present. So our choice is simply our ears choosing for us. Have a great day! Tony

Thanks for the detailed reply! Much appreciated! Gonna have to get me all of those UFIP’s that Jackie used!
