Well I agree with all he said, But I was just sitting watching a movie and listening on headphones (so multitasking in and out) )and I could hear a difference in timbre in transitions. Now I wasn't paying attention to what was what so couldn't tell wood from metal. But there was a change in...
Have a new pet here on Moon base I. I sent off an exploratory ship to Saturn to see what's up-took it 9 years round trip (beat NASA''s timetable by a decade. This lil creature was on the ship when it returned. Friendly little fella and it likes to eat the giant nematodes like I do-so like a...
Even with those holes in the Kumu those are fantastic sounding kits. We had/have a forum member with one (Soundwave-Soundcloud??no Wavelength was it?). If I was going to buy a top notch birch kit the Finnish birch Kumu would be it. But admittedly the big hole in side freaks me out LOL.
Seems like it would be a lot of attack, less rebound (like a kick port), and would the hole be vulnerable for miss hits. You couldn’t make the hole too large - maybe 2 in max. Let’s do it to an old ambassador single ply head. Whst would be cool is have a plastic pin hold a Mylar flap to cover...
An instrument can sound different at a store than when you take it home. It can take you back for moment-Oh no what have I done with buyers remorse. But each time I had that reaction I just spent time with it and discovered I loved it. I bought my 22 in Zildjian K Constantinople Hi Bell Thin...
I just search for drumless tracks (on Youtube) in various genre and some are pretty good-others not so much. I've been in a jazz-funk fusion phase so playing along with bands (it's a vibrant genre with lots of new jazz-fusion bands as well as old) and searching drumless tracks. A lot of the...
I've read there is some 1 million drummers in US-supposedly by census (another source state 2.5 million). Not that many for a population of 332 million. I have no idea of proficiency of drummers-I can't find any measures of that. I think one thing about drums is most people think they would be...
I was just reading an article on Timpani and I always thought of them as resonators like an acoustic drum with two heads-but just having one head. However this article states it acts as a baffled radiator instead of a resonator. Timbre of sound can really jade our perception of pitch and...
Technology can discriminate sound intensity-volume much better than our ears. Our ears are skewed.
"The human auditory field (green) is limited by the threshold curve (bottom) and a curve giving the upper limit of sound perception (top). At each frequency, between 20 Hz and 20 kHz, the...
No famous people but I thought I managed to catch a one in a million photo one day after I stopped for a smoke by Lake Eerie. However after forensic analysis by our government they told me it was just some dude on a Dino floaty throwing a Frisbee.
Here's my Pearl Rhythm Traveler POD right before I gave it to my grand daughter Hannah,
The kick and 12 in snare sound pretty good-especially that lil kick is a cannon. The 12 in tom works ok. The two other smaller I'm not too fond of. Here's an old video using it recorded with my Zoom single...
