Not married to a pack (meaning I’ll need the whole set)
Dark vs bright dry or no etc?
Example band could be Ragana or Jucifer - those sound like something I’d wanna emulate
First time posting on here, I’m still new to the gear side of things. I’ve recently started playing live shows with my band and when at a local venue, they usually hook me up with a kick and snare mic. I love playing mic’d up and we hold lots of DIY shows so I want to see about getting some mics of my own, maybe a full set for my Toms too. I’m also on a semi-restrictive budget, so how should I go about selecting? Is criteria for performance mics and recording mics any different? Also, any recommendations would be appreciated.

Hi all!
I'm looking for a minimalist setup of snare + bass drum for practice at home. Preferably to use in the living room while my (soon to be) wife watches tv. My current setup (in the attic) is a TD-9KX2 on a tennis ball riser and Iron Cobra pedals (OG beaters). My 2 y.o. son's room is directly below, so - due to bass drum thumping - I'd prefer to practice in the living room. So I'd like the most silent options without really breaking the bank.
Things I've been looking at :
I don't really need there to be any electronics inside, especially since that usually also increases the price. I just want a way to practice my chops and ankle technique more without disturbing anyone.
Any thoughts on the listed items or different suggestions are welcome!
Thanks in advance.
Heyyy people; I am a complete beginner when it comes to playing the drums; how is my posture so farr? Have a great day!
Hi! I'm starting to build a new set to match the sound of my band. We play epic doom and i'm looking for a dark fat sounding crashes, but with a kind of restricted budget (less that 400€ would be nice, less than 300€ even better). I was looking into the Paiste 900 series heavy, but i'm not quite sure if it would be a good option. Also I have a Tama LST148 Snare Drum SLP 14"x8".
Any advice and recomendation would be very welcome, thank you!
Working to get better and better with some ORIGIN
I just blew out my snare head for the 4th time this year. I like to crank my snare really high and I hit pretty hard. what drum heads should I be using?
What do you think about the alesis nitro max?
Hi, im a big fan of death (band) and i want to play their late albums (symbolic, human, tsop etc) and i need to still work on my double bass speed because im at 16 th notes 180 bpm but my unisons are really bad and i can't even play rlrl with the the hands unison with rlrl in the bass drum at 90 bpm What excercises are good to develop unison coordination between double bass and hands? Should i focus on doing this excercises really slow during a long time or try to push it? Are my unisons correct on this video?
Heyyy metalheads! I am new to drumming. Today I got my new alesis nitro max drum kit. So can you name some metal songs that are easy to play? I wish y'all a wonderful Day!

Some raw drumcam footage from the Afsky concert in Erfurt 2023.
I’m a drummer who wants to make music but I don’t have mics for my actual kit and I want to get a drum plugin. The one that has gotten my attention the most is krimh drums by bogren digital. I’m coming from bandlab and I’m learning the cakewalk DAW and I’m very familiar with bandlab and programming drums on there. Can I program drums with krimh? Because all of the videos I watch don’t say that I can and I need to be 100% sure before I buy it.
Hi all again, my OnTrigger gen3s finally came and I was hoping someone has experience setting either of these two pieces of gear up and any tips you might have, or if you use both that would be optimal, since this is my current setup. Anything on how to get these things dialed in would be greatly appriciated. Thanks!
So heyyyy guys!!! I am a beginner when it comes to drumming. Is this set of drums suitable for a beginner? I need to add this double kick pedal because I wanna play some black metal songs. I hope y'all have a great day!
