how's it going my name is Tom from Soul
keeper uh I'm going to show you my drum
kit today we have a thas Star Classic uh
and then we got a 12 by8 mounted Tom
here and then we have a 22x 16 kit uh
with a 16x floor time so in terms of the
toms and the way that they're tuned um I
try to do like a little past finger
tight uh I prefer them to be a little
bit lower or as leav as low as they can
go without uh getting too washed out or
or flubby kind of thing for the snare we
have a 13 by7 Crush copper snare it's
going to be all evans's heads uh we have
an HD dry on the snare here uh and then
we have uh ec2s for both of the uh rack
Tom and floor here here and then in
terms of the kick head we have the
Aquarian uh super kick 2 uh with a
little batter cover on the on the head
there uh and then we have the kick drum
actually lined with a mattress uh like
Temperpedic cover lining the shell to
kind of like dampen it out that way you
don't have like a big old pillow
flopping around so it's a little bit
nicer in that regard in terms of the uh
kick pedals here we have the trick uh
Pro V1 uh Bigfoot pedals not even fast
drummer but I just always thought they
really comfortable and I really like the
way they feel so they've uh they've been
my best friend ever since for the high
hats here uh we have a 13in z zilan z
high hats there um they're a little bit
like on the on the cheap R but I've
always really loved the way that they
sounded then for the accent crash or the
left crash here we have an 18in Sabian
aax ozone crash uh then we have a 12in
uh mini holy China Chad Smith with the
China here and as far as the splash goes
tucked away under here uh we have a
Sabian aax 8 in spash so we have the uh
21in uh zilan Mega Bell ride uh hard
hard ride to be uh and then for the uh
right main hand crash uh we have a savan
18-in uh frequency uh crash there uh
then uh lastly we have a 17-in uh ax
holy China uh we uh run tracks um
through our uh through our system here
so this is my little uh electronic setup
uh so what I have here is I have a Focus
right uh
18920 uh this allows me to basically run
tracks uh from my laptop and logic uh
through here and then I can split up the
output uh into individual outputs and
then run them through the uh di box down
here beyond that uh I have a little
mixer basically for my in monitor so I
can kind of adjust my own levels there
uh and then I have a Rolland tm2 trigger
module for the for the kick drum there

extreme
5B uh and
