@@richardforbes943 The S series is pretty new, do you mean that a cymbal needs to last 20 years to be good? I'm happy if I get 2 years out of every $100 i spend on a cymbal, so imo @ $200 that S ride would be a steal if it lasted 5 years, or 1 worldwide Slipknot tour.
They are the extension between you and your drums. When you set up your toms and cymbals, the distance depends on the length of the stick. If you don't get good rebound from it, it can really mess up your playing and sound. It might sound pretentious but it's so so important to get a good quality pair of sticks!
Can tell he isn't a huge gear nerd. Some guys know the exact number of plies bearing edges etc and some just worry about playing more. Great drummer tho. Solid
@@wilkinsnl bruh is Lars hate seriously still a thing? If you dont like metallica, dont listen to metallica. At least let the meme die before the actual band members die.
Wow, at the end he mentions reviewing the footage from the GoPros. I always enjoy watching those drum cams but I didn't realize he was using them as a tool to get better. Good on you, Jay!
Check Mikkey Dee's video about his mic configuration. He's been doing this for years, putting his mics inside his toms and has a video explaining it. Same with Ben Harclerode when he was with whitechapel. He's got a video talking about his internal tom mics too.
In the late 80’s/early 90’s there was a company called May EA that made internal mics for drums. For some reason they never caught on with main stream performers. I remember Omar Hakim was an early endorser. I’m not sure if they’re still around.
He's always going to live in Joey's shadow but Jay gets so much shit. He's so fucking good and technical. IDGAF what ANYONE says. Jay was/is the right replacement for Joey. It couldn't have been anyone else.
You cant compare Joey to anyone. There is only 1 Joey, like there is only 1 Jay Wienberg. And he is doing a fantastic job ,and i bet hes trying every show to be the best of himself.
@@micaeljohnsson5747 he got fired because he is sabotaging the band, every song every live gig he cant get a tempo right, destroying the groove which slipknot is known for, now with Eloy every song is the studio tempo and its perfect, they didnt get to enjoy that for 10 years straight
technically Joey is still on earth so i won't agree with that but he is my favorite living/breathing drummer. *who's still doing music because Chris Fehn is my favorite favorite.
I bought a 20 inch S Rock ride a coupla few years ago ( at the time it was my biggest ride, now I have three 20's 😂 ), and that's definitely one of my favorites of all time too.
I just saw them in April at Knotfest Cleveland. It was an amazing show, so amazing in fact it fired me up to pick up the drums again after 15 years. My kit should be here tomorrow.
I love the half moon clip racks with custom mounts, probably saves at least two hours on each end for set ups and take down. A more rock solid set up, less chance of stands moving during play.
I LOVE the fact that he had to READ some of the specs!! That's totally ME!!! I don't know the exact sizes, types of wood, or science behind a bunch of my drums!! I just know they look, and sound GREAT, and are very well made!! LOL 😄
It’s nice to see him use his single pedals on both of his kicks. Unlike before and tons of other players who set up a double bass set up, only using one bass drum with a double bass pedal. I guess the shallower kicks truly are easier to manipulate on a live set up mix. 🍻🍻🍻
I always thought jays cymbal choices sound weird with slipknot. I actually use A customs myself but the paiste cymbals that Joey used are so ingrained into my head
i don't like the design of paiste, and i don't perceive so ''MUCH'' difference between jay and joey's cymbals and drum kits. Its all about miking and engineering. That's why iowa have the best drum tone of all time.
@@wumbomaster1395 Joey also used zildjian early on with slipknot. Don’t get me wrong it is weird to see slipknot with no paistes bc it’s so synonymous bc of Joey. But at least instead of continuing the paiste thing, Jay is using gear and equipment he wants for himself
That kit must be new, new cause that wasn't what he was playing on when I saw them last September!!! He blew me away as did the whole band just like I expected \m/ \m/
You must not have made it far into the video cause at the 30 second mark he says “this is a Brand new drum set” how can you be so observant with your eyes but not your ears?
I would love to see these guys. I missed their concert that was closest I would have been able to travel to this year, deffinitely looking foroward to a tour next year!
Jay with the WALL of sound joke haha kit looks great those Evan’s G2 heads are are unreal too. Cool u use those, I was remo from high school till about a year ago the G1 blew me away on my snare. Love ya man.
Ok, this was the tour I saw them on, and that looks like where I saw them. But, I wanna assume they didn't do a rig rundown in Birmingham, Alabama. Lol. But, that seriously looks like the same place. In This Moment was before them, opened for by a band whose name evades me right now....
Don't buy his snares though. He isn't using either on this tour, just wanted to plug them on this video. Look at all his drum cams, the lugs and depth are a dead giveaway. Looks like he's using an Oriollo bellmaker.
My fav way of controlling kick drums of any sizem, is to use 2 mics. Put the inside one as close to the beating head as possible without being hit (I like a Beta 91) and put a oow cut on it at around 1500Hz. Then an outside mic about 5-10cm from the reso hèad (my fav is a Sennheiser e602) and put on a high cut at around 120Hz. Depending on drums and taste, play around with the cutoff frequencies and even the mics...
He forgot to talk about his leopard throne hahaha And also fyi his drum tech changes drum heads almost every other show(toms and snare more often ofc) he posted about on ig long ago
Love how he plugs both of his signature snares but is using neither this tour. Look at any footage: at the lugs and the depth is 7 or 8 inches. Sounds like an Oriollo bellmaker.
😃 Im diggin Jay, he is damn good 😃 He, Pfaff and Alessandro is in SLIPKNOT. They love their new Brothers, and so shall i ❤️ and i miss Joey and Paul ❤️
I've been a huge fan of Jay's sound and mix over Joey's since his departure from the band. But, Joey's chops and his snare pretty much can't be rivaled! Not saying Jay's chops aren't phenomenal but there was that little bit of extra sauce with Joey's chops. All in all both are/were incredible drummers and easily the perfect Slipknot drummer/s!
@@dEAthlikEstAtic Big difference in hearing just the drums as opposed to the drums with the band. I'm a drummer. I love hearing the kit isolated to hear how they're tuned and sound by themselves.
It's crazy how the industry works.. when you're a struggling drummer barely making or struggling musician in general you gotta buy everything and companies want nothing to do with you. But when you "made it" you literally get everything handed to you for free and boutique drum companies will go above and beyond to give you their stuff for free and make sure you are taken care of.
that's when you're the 1% of the 1% . Gotta earn it . Takes years and years . No one is doing music in hopes of getting free gear . We just do it because we love it
Yeah that's called advertising. This company gave away 1 kit. Will probably sell 50 off the back of this video alone. If they just gave 50 unknown musicians free kits .... they just lost 50 kits because they'll sell no extras because of it
That’s actually not true. They don’t just get free gear as you’d like to think. They do get some discounts or get some loaner stuff and a freebie here and there, free gear NOT
That applies to life in general, especially things related to money. It's why the first 100k is the hardest to make, everything's much easier afterwards if you use them well. Just realized I sound like a trading ad bot lmao.

Would love to see Sweetwater do more videos like this. A series maybe 🤔
Is there like an xlr jack built into the drums? Or no bottom heads?
i like he want to sound like Ringo Star on Slipknot. Thats pretty cool
What's the background song?
That’s wild that he’s using an entry level ride cymbal in one of the largest rock bands in the world. Gotta trust your ears, not the price tag.
So true man. Tuning on the heads too.
I would say 20 years says its a good cymbal
*Metal* bands

I love Stagg gear. I had a china cymbal which was double figures but it sounded exactly how I wanted.
I never knew there was such a science to the humble drumstick
Random fact: every pair of sticks is pitch paired meaning when you hit them on anything (table for example) they will give you the same sound
disagree
@@foxontehrun 🤯 They are!!🤯

Can tell he isn't a huge gear nerd. Some guys know the exact number of plies bearing edges etc and some just worry about playing more. Great drummer tho. Solid
Then there’s Lars who gives a shit of neither.
@@wilkinsnl 😂😂only money
Worries about the cymbals blending through? Lol. Back in the days Slipknot was raw. Now it’s all about sounding too polished.
You can tell.he has no say on his gear and clowns decides.that.
@@wilkinsnl bruh is Lars hate seriously still a thing? If you dont like metallica, dont listen to metallica. At least let the meme die before the actual band members die.
Can't wait for Jim and Mick their Rigs !!
I wish but prob not haha. I think they just did this cuz jay was at gear fest. But man I hope I’m wrong haha
They already did lol
You can look at Thomann for Mick's rig and SMR on YT for Jim's rig. They're probably the closest to the current tour rigs
@@dominicwainaina3960 yup. Their rigs are pretty much unchanged since those videos. Just a few little things here and there and some new guitars.
Jay and Joey will always be my fav drummers
Wow, at the end he mentions reviewing the footage from the GoPros. I always enjoy watching those drum cams but I didn't realize he was using them as a tool to get better. Good on you, Jay!
please say you guys did one for Clown. I wanna know what kind of beer kegs he uses
Didn't realize Jays snare had that many plies in his snare drum insane!
Seems like SJC is carrying the torch from where Orange County left off.
As thick or almost as thick as Thomas Haake's snare....his snare might have been actually carved from a tree, though I forget.
@@CFChristian u think that?
@@JamesSSWayne Yes why? Doesn't seem that far of a stretch.
Or else you're a bot.
@@CFChristian calm down my friend. I just a question. I think that too. SJC and maybe A&F Drums too (but for riches)
This video is over the top Sweetwater is killing it with these videos.
I bet some lawyer is sweating that Jay said "Rig Rundown" over and over. Premier Guitars coming to get ya.
Thanks Sweetwater. I enjoyed this video, Jay seems like a really nice, humble guy.
When your Dad is one of the most famous drummers in the world maybe that humbles you a bit!
I know that Jays dad is Max Weinberg.
Would love to learn more on the microphones inside the drums! That's worth its own video!
+1 😊
For real this should have included what mics they are using.

As much as I love Joey, Jay is a breath of fresh air. He doesn't have an act like he's angry at the world all the time.
You should watch more behind the scenes videos of Joey.
@@sephiroth7818 i did and I know what you mean. I am referring to his interviews.

@@excisionsstepserum8336 still well. Upgraded my kit twice so far and added a double pedal.
@@brianjohnston5221 I did an upgrade or two and added a double pedal to the mix as well
Thanks to Jay, SJC and Sweetwater for getting me that incredible Crucible snare, its my new favorite 👌

i HAVE BEEN WAITING FOR SOMETHING LIKE THIS FOR A LOONNNGGG TIME. thank you so much.
Man, that is so cool. Thanks for the details on your kit. Just blown away by your playing.
It’s a nice kit but my favorite kit in slipknot definitely had to be Joeys Pearl from Volume 3 with the white Alphas
For me was the 2013 Joey's drum kit. That kit was also SIC
for me it is Jays 2022 kit, so good
Joey's All Hope is Gone kit is fucking insane, its an absolute monster and I love it.
I love my 22 inch Zildjian S rock ride too!
It’s nice to see him use his single pedals on both of his kicks. Unlike before and tons of other players who set up a double bass set up, only using one bass drum with a double bass pedal. I guess the shallower kicks truly are easier to manipulate on a live set up mix. 🍻🍻🍻
Probably the most common occurrence in todays metal bands is the double kick drums
Wow ! loving all the different colors and designs on this kit and the whole setup
Jay is so talented and down to earth

Gonna miss seeing Jay’s drumcams with the knot 😔
That 18 inch ultra hammered chinese cymbals, 20 inch crash cymbals, and S rock ride cymbal sounds are AMAZINGGG !!! 🔥🔥🔥

Love to see the big names geek out over gear too
I was hoping to hear each individual piece of gear as he was explaining it. Something to keep in mind for future videos!
Thank you!!!

Fantastic!!! What a great documentation!

Patiently waiting for the QUALITY NEW ALBUM.
This guy is more educated on how drums sound live than any other drummer. He is almost a sound technician. Impressive.
Awesome set up

epic. new fan. thank you.
Man that set up is sick af
I dont understand that many plys on the snare, but holy fuck are his sticks perfection man.
Idk either I’m gonna guess sound and probably more important is strength he can pound the shit out of those and not worry. Idk tho I’m not a drummer
Dude seems like the nicest guy ever. \m/
