This clip marks my twelve month progress playing drums. I am self taught. The audio in this clip is directly out of my Roland TD20 and TD12 V drums modules into my Sony DV deck. The keyboard solo was added afterwards in Protools. The sounds of this kit are from one of my custom programmed kits and can be downloaded from my forum on my website at www.superpuss.com.au The cage is my own design and consists of parts from two Roland MDS-3C racks and some black aluminium square tubing cut to size. I have done a DIY electronic conversion to my Rototoms using DIY mesh heads and have built an electronic pitch control for them. The two little white drums to the right are percussion triggers built from plumbing parts, self adhesive felt and a mouse mat. They are connected to a Roland TMC-6 expander which is connected to my TD20. The three eight inch mesh head toms are my new DIY 8 x 4's with Roland mesh heads and my own DIY electronics. I will be adding five more of these very soon. The floor tom is also my own design, converted from a Pearl 13 inch fitted with a TAMA mesh head. Same with my gong which is also my own design and has a TAMA 22 inch mesh head. The China, left crash and middle splash are all from Kit Toys and respond extremely well.
