I Built My Own Clap Stack (& you won’t believe how it sounds)
Музыка
I’ve wanted a stack clap cymbal for my drum kit for a long time, however they’re too expensive for me. So… I decided to make my own! Homemade, DIY, awesomeeeeeee
Say hey to me on Instagram @atomgill
Many thanks to @DonalBowens for letting me know how he made his clap stack, & @rdavidr for the inspiration. Check them out!

I just saw Magdalena Bay live the other day and their drummer Nick Villa had a super sick sounding custom stack that looked like 3 cymbals sealed tight with several pieces of metal. (there is a vid on his instagram.) It seems like he works a chrome and truck parts shop as well though, so he might have access to some crazy machinery 😅

bruh why are you hammering that in your lap set that on the ground lol. My highschool band used to hoard all the broken cymbals in our schools band room and stack them up, skys the limit with this stuff if you like weird short clappy clangs, you can sett a splash on a crash, you can take 2 broken cymbals and wrap the broken bits around eachother so it deadens at that spot, stack 3 or more, all kinds of fun.

Brass kind of sucks with cymbals, although I took a meinl brass ride, heavy and sanded it some then added hammering, and i loved the DRY after effect, still use it on drum set! If it helps, I had used a bench grinder, but you can also use sandpaper of driller to custom cymbals for your liking. Wear safety equipment.

the key to making a clap sound, this or electronic is having several very noisy percussion playing at slightly different pitches, that's why you see in the ones before 3 cymbals together of different size
