Agree - even My 25 year old TD7 module has this. Newer ones most certainly do. Regarding noise, you might prep the student for the next complaint even if he's exclusively playing in headphones (especially if he lives in an apartment) which is the noise of the pads and pedals through the floors...

I traded a 13x5 Craviotto that was a wood he didn't use often (i forget the details) and turned out to be rare, for a signed Bun E Ludwig. That said, the Bun E drum is amazing to play and I actually really hated the craviotto. It was too sensitive and loud. So net net all's good.

I have both as well. I was under the impression that Memphis drum shop commissioned additional ones more or less to the same specification. Is that not the case? Mine are similar but the older model is flatter and a little trashier and darker. This one is little more friendly. I should...

Great as a Left side Ride, crash ride, or for quiet gigs. Also a great alternative to a swish or china The labels were removed by previous owner Great condition - no nicks or dings. I have a second one I repaired a crack in and this was bought as a backup. But my repair's held and I never...

Istanbul Agop 20.5" 25th anniversary ride cymbal. 1856 gms -- Great weight. I have two and am just keeping one. Dark, smokey, versatile jazz ride. Great for Left side Ride and quieter gigs. https://reverb.com/item/51041174-istanbul-agop-25th-anniversary-20-5-ride-1856gms

I like his energy. His playing is entertaining. The man is bringing new drummers to the world. Whether they move past him to other drummers, that's up to them.

4 biggest things that helped my left hand: Exercises that switch lead from R to Left. The Dawson Rudimental Ritual is full of them as is Great Hands for a Lifetime Really working Left hand accents as some above documented Tommy Igoe's 21 min Jazz Ramp with Left hand leading Breaking 3 fingers...

Hmm I think I have one of these to sell too. Let me grab a picture of it as I'm not sure the difference between the two versions.

There's software and hardware that can do the midi channel remapping for you, but in the end, do you really want the TD20 HH's for anything? As long as the VST's can handle it, that is the eventual direction you'll head anyway. It's inevitable ;-) you can always get a second HH pedal if you...

Re HH, I don't know the answer but if you dig around for how people get their HH to work with VST's, its similar. You want the cc's to go over the same midi channel as the note on.offs and map to the cc's the other module expects. Frankly, why bother making things more complicated? The TD20...

I have a nodar 24" frankencymbal. It's quite a monster. I never really know what to do with it. Anyway, one of the most interesting things I notice about Bill, having seen him many times in small places, isn't his left hand but the sound he gets from his RIGHT hand. He really generates a...

I did a couple of gigs with my original TD7 kit 25 years ago. It took me longer to set them up then acoustics. Even labeling the cables, I still hooked up some pads incorrectly and had to fix it on stage. I hated it and never did it again. You can fix almost anything on an acoustic set...

Yeah, that probably fits the bill best.

Anyone have an old crown, bryston, etc stereo amp that is suitable for driving a pair of small studio speakers like avantones? Doesn't need much power and the smaller the better. 1U This is the kind of amp someone might have for stage monitors or studio use.
