Jay Weinberg (Slipknot) "Solway Firth" Playthrough on Roland VAD506

Jay Weinberg, drummer with band Slipknot, has to keep his drumming and physical fitness in top shape. Touring with Slipknot is the drumming equivalent of being asked to run a marathon, night after night. Playing a show this demanding without a warmup can lead to injuries, which could be game over for the tour. That’s why Jay chooses to take his V-Drums on tour - so that he can maintain tour-readiness and warm-up before every live show. Having a V-Drums kit on-hand is also useful for helping Jay and the band pen new songs and easily capture demo tracks on tour.
In this video, Jay plays along with a well-known Slipknot favourite, using the V-Drums Acoustic Design VAD506 kit. Jay plays a Slipknot track, with original drum track removed, from SD card inserted into the TD-27 module. The audio from the TD-27 module provides the drum sounds and are mixed with the Slipknot track.
Jay’s custom setup uses two VAD506 kits, combined together, to exactly model his acoustic kit setup as played on stage with Slipknot. Two TD-27 modules are tethered together to provide inputs for all pads within the kit. Drum audio is recorded directly from the TD-27 modules into a DAW. Mixing and panning completed in post-production, maintaining the authenticity of the TD-27 module sound. Video and audio recorded backstage at a Slipknot concert on January 24th 2020, Birmingham, UK.

Simply no once else could carry the torch of Joey better than this beast of a guy. Perfect replacement. 👌

[@mitchel4332]

This song is such a masterpiece.

[@pre_ow5494]

He does beat the drums like it owes him money lmao

[@rafaelalamilla5583]

Might be a hot take for some but Jay Weinberg's drumming made this album. His drumming pushed the music forward and provided the foundation for the rest of the group to unleash hell. He's come into his own with this band and I'm very happy for him.

Solway Firth is Jay's answer to whoever says he's not as good as Joey.

[@khleong9632]

Roland. Please tell me that Jay gonna play the entire album.

[@slurms777]

Joey has an irreplaceable feel, but damned if Jay isn't paving his own way here, what a track.

[@bencuss3408]

I was thankful to ride my bike around the studio where they recorded WANYK

[@chriswest2343]

He's a machine not a drummer

[@andresnieto37]

This proves how high is the level of musicianship you need to be in a band like Slipknot.

[@Martin-ng6hh]

This is the best song of WANYK in my opinion. All are great, but this is just intense

[@kungfury6410]

Jay out of the band is insane to me, this guy is putting on a masterclass in drumming.

[@larsulrich26ulrich42]
