Hi. I really need a personal amp / monitor for my Roland SPD-S - just can't stand any more going trough the PA and not hearing what I'm doing. Any suggestion? What are you using?

I'm in this project that calls for both real drums and electronic loops. I'm thinking about getting a drum machine to program the loops in. But I would really like this thing to have the capability to accept external triggers too, so I can start the loop, play my drums, and trigger some other...

I think we need a percussion dedicated forum, just like the snare drum, cymbals & etc. that we have here. Any plans on that?

Please name your series/model of preferences for snares, toms and bassdrums

I recorded some percussion last week including some cymbal rolls. I used my 14" Avedis paper thin crash for it because we wanted a high and cutting cymbal sound. We were amazed at how dark my crash cymbal sounded compared to the crash cymbals already recorded on the drum track - Paiste Signature...
