Bass drum beater, that is. What were you thinking?
This is mainly for the pop and rock drummers.
For years I used a wooden BD beater to get that nice clicking sound.
Recently, I've been noticing a lot more vibration going thru my leg (I'm getting old).
So, I switched to a felt beater, which is easier on the foot, but doesn't sound as nice to me.
However, since I'm usually going to mic the BD, I can just boost the highs in the EQ, I suppose.
So, do you rock drummers use felt or a hard beater (wood/plastic etc.)?
