Okay I’m working on learning how to figure out tuning of stuff that changes so fast, which is hard for a wind player but here’s what I’ve got: Bass 1: A Bass 2: F# Bass 3: D Bass 4: A Bass 5: D
This recording is super good, but a lot of bass lines tune to the same notes, other recordings just don't show it as well. They use Mapex drums, but idk what heads
@@falc0n717 Absolutely right. Almost everyone is on that trusty old DADF#A tuning for outdoor band. Just can't go wrong with it! At this point it's the muffling and head choice that creates each bassline's characteristic sound. Like someone has already pointed out, these are custom printed Remo Ebony Ambassadors, and we use a relatively small amount of weather stripping to muffle each drum, which allowed us to get that more resonant sound signature. 👍
Again just show those first four minutes to someone twenty years ago. They'll say "Wow is that some sort of professional trick drumming crew that has been together for a few years?", then watch their brains leak out of their head when you say "Nah it's the 12th place percussion bass drums warming up after around 9 months of practice". Jesus the DCI talent pool is fucking bottomless.

I LOVE resonant tuning. Thank you so much for keeping it alive amongst all the dry sounding lines.
P.S. Ya Bass.
12:03 They really just said "what are you doing step bro"
Basslines are definitely underrated
The tuning of this bass line is hands down my favorite from DCI '19.
Eric Thomas i agree last year was a great year for bass lines
Do you happen to know what they are tuned to? My bass drum tech is currently trying to figure it out because we all love it
@@jacob_lass3841 This is super late lol, but it's D A D F# A from the bottom up
@@connorraebel that's all good lol, thanks!
@@jacob_lass3841 No problem!
Are we not gonna talk about "What are you doing step-bro?" lmao
Disgust :(

Change that Bb to an A and you’re set
Power chord and major triad = Beefy bassline
That bottom bass hits the nutsack outta that drum
Lmfaooo
Bass 2 🔥

Love how non shalant the stick flip and downbeat is at 2:10 is bass 4
I love me some Dragon Bass
I would love to see some videos on how you tune your bass drums💜
idk why but the unison at 14:38 made me lose my mind
I almost forgot to watch this today
THE TUNING IS SO GOOD AHHH
Best tuning for a bassline hands down. What's the setup and tuning for the basses???
And of course....YEAH BASS
Hey what would you say that makes a good bass section leader?
YAY 2019 VIDEOS! How many lines did you get to film?!
Best Bass drum tuning by far.
underrated
Nice. Glad I have the bell on
The ambulance was coming cause the bassline was getting lit
It would’ve been perfect if it was a fire truck
Beautiful

How did you guys muffle these drums? The resonance is insanely good and I love it
What a unique sound !👍
What drums and heads are these?🤔
Does any other DCI drumline use them?
This recording is super good, but a lot of bass lines tune to the same notes, other recordings just don't show it as well. They use Mapex drums, but idk what heads
gub I thought blue knights had mapex drums but I dont remember
gub I was just adding to the list dont worry about it lol
@@falc0n717 according to Remo, these are the ebony ambassadors
