    I’ve been a Zildjian player since 1988. I’m 48 years young. With that said, my God those cymbals including your hats sound far superior than my K’s and A Customs. Now understand I’ve had my
    12in K/Z hats since 1988 and my 1947 22in K Constantinople light ride just as long. Your playing complements your cymbals and that Sonor kit in every way. Best of luck to you in all your future endeavors.

    • @digitaldrumming
      @digitaldrumming  2 года назад +1

      Thank you so much Jordan! Actually out of the three, I liked the Tama the least because of cheapish production quality here & there. I was really impressed with the Sonor (quality & sound at that price are amazing), and also like the Yamaha for its unique sizes. KInd regards!

      Thank you David! I am using Presonus Quantum 4848 converters and different mic preamps for recording: API 3124V (kick & snare channels), Warm Audio WA-412 (toms & kick out), A-Designs Pacifica (Overheads) and Warm Audio WA-12s for stereo room.
      Most of the sound comes from the kit/Room/mic pres and my Audio-Technica microphones actually. I only did some basic / natural correctional EQing & compression, would be too much detail to write it all down here though ;-D

    • @digitaldrumming
      @digitaldrumming  Год назад +3

      Hey Jeremy, although the CLub Jam also sounded nice in the end, I prefer the Sonor A LOT because of much better build quality/parts and overall feel. Especially the Club Jam Snare was hard to work with, as it lost tension rapidly and even the strainer came off every once in a while. The Sonor build & hardware felt a lot more professional, which is surprising considering the super affordable price. Kind regards!

    @rhythmicedd6694 2 года назад +1

    Would you be able to recommend this or the Jazz model for genres like punk/post hardcore/skramz? Especially without mic. Wondering if it could cut through guitars with those small kick sizes. It sounds amazing especially miced up but just wondering if it’s better as a practice kit for those genres or if it could play that stuff well live, thanks!

    • @digitaldrumming
      @digitaldrumming  2 года назад +1

      Hi, you could probably make it work pretty well with clear heads, lower tuning & more bd muffling. In the end, the bd will have less low end compared to 20"/22" obviously, but I have actually made some pretty nice pop/rock recordings with an 18" bd kit in th past. Kind regards!
