  1. I must disappoint you, I am using WP

  2. Hi Ray, thanks for you comment, I couldn’t agree more. People search fro this terms and I as a owner of drum blog am here to help answer and explain if I want to get traffic. I think we agree there is obvious difference between hi end and entry series but Yes, from mid range to high end series its up to you. Series like AA and AAX usually have better value for money ratio.

    Cheers,
    Denis

  3. Hi David, Given its age, it could potentially be of significant value, especially to collectors or musicians who appreciate vintage gear. Although I don’t know it’s value, here is what I would do if I was you:

    1. Go to Ebay and see if people are selling anything similar.
    2. Check out some musical stores. Many local music stores offer appraisal services for musical instruments and gear.
    3. Contact Professional Appraisers. There are professionals who specialize in appraising musical instruments. While they might charge a fee, they can provide a detailed assessment of your cymbal’s value.
    4. Vintage Drum Shops: Some shops specialize in vintage drums and cymbals. If there’s one near you, it might be worth a visit.

  4. Hi David, thanks for the insights. Denis

  5. Thanks Muzza, I will have that in mind. Cheers

  6. Hi Jonathan, thanks for the comment YMSDIH, cheers.

  7. Hi John, Thanks for commenting, although I used this pad only for sampling and metronome mostly, you should be able to by plugging in your external bass drum to on of the trigger inputs. After doing this, when hitting the bass drum you should be able to see the signal. If that works you are adding the sounds like for any other pad, the same goes for other settings. Hope this was helpful. Cheers, Denis

  8. Thanks, Stan glad you like it. My setup is also mix of Sabian and Zildjian.

  9. Pst 5 and later 8 came as a replacement for Alpha series. Cheers, Denis

  10. Hi Dave, I see I am also subscribed to John’s YT channel. What I can see from his videos, he plays Zildjian Zonstantinople ride and crash (not sure if the cymbal on the left is a crash or a ride) and for hi hat he uses Zildjian K series, I saw he uses K hybrid series on some videos, I also seen he uses A series ride, it’s A medium ride to be precise. Hope this was helpful. Cheers

  11. Thanks for the insights David, it’s great to have non-drummers here, Cheers! Denis

  12. Hi Dellis, I am glad you find my content useful. Cheers

  16. Hi Stella, in the old days’ bands rarely used headphones, instead stage monitors were in wide use. The drummer on the video is Keith Moon and I can only guess why he used headphones. it might be just his personal preference or he listened to a click track which is also a rare thing back in the day. It can just be that others liked stage monitors rather than headphones while this was not the case with Moon.

  17. Hi Alice it’s a different game from drums, because of a lot that you don’t see it happens below (the feet work). Having a teacher it’s the best way to learn drums. Good luck with your journey!

  18. Hello Ted, I took under consideration only the series currently made. Cheers

  19. Hello Jojo, can you please check his discography on https://www.allmusic.com/ and see if he recorded more than these guys.

  20. Hello Josh, thanks for commenting, the article will be updated each year since Meinl will be releasing new series and the Dual Classics Custom is one of them. Cheers

  21. Thanks Vin, I am glad you like it. Cheers

  22. Hi Terry, I suggest you try Sabin Big and Ugly series it is similar to the Zildjian Dry series or Meinl Byzance Extra Dry, Dark. If you are only looking for a ride that Byzance Vintage has a few options. Hope I gave you a few fresh ideas. Cheers

  23. Paiste stop manufacturing Alpha, not sure why, great series though. As a replacement in that range with similar sound and price the came with pst 8.

  24. Hi John, thanks for commenting, at the moment I am more behind my laptop writing but I hope in the future will get some time to cover this with videos. Cheers

  25. Hi Rachel, glad to hear you find my article useful. Good luck in your drumming journey! Denis

  26. Thanks, I appreciate it. Denis

  27. Hi, Rich, thanks for the comment, the list is made by taking all the credits from allmusic.com, find Larry there and you’ll see numbers are correct.

  28. Thanks for the heads-up, maybe we will expand this list. Cheers, Denis

  29. Hey Josh, thank you for contributing. I think you might be right, I wrote this article over a year a go and now when I read it, I was to harsh to AA series. I will probably update that part. Denis

  30. He is a true legend in the drumming community.

  31. WIll check it out Roger and include him on a list if he has what it takes. Thanks for the heads up.

  32. These numbers are from manual research on allmusic.com discography so for John there are more but these are not all singles but mostly albums.

  33. Thanks for the heads up, according to our research Earl recorded around 84 albums but will definitely go through this once again.

  34. We will make sure to go through Eddie’s discography and include him on a list if this is correct. Thanks

  35. Hi Kevin thanks for the comment and I’m glad you like my review. You will not be disappointed with MX pro 4 that is for sure.

  36. Hi Alvina, thank you for the kind words. I find myself more of a drummer than a writer, I just try to offer value and personal touch, I think that’s always essential and creates a bond with readers.

  37. Hi, thanks for the comment, I am glad to hear at least somebody succeded. I agree that somebody can have totally different experience on Fiverr.
