  I keep coming back and watching this video, but now I have a comment. I have the zoom H8 (which also has an upgraded X/Y mic), and I want to start making some short form videos with my “Cajon as a kick drum” kit using the DW direct link cajon pedal, hats & a snare, outdoors at different scenic locations here in North Texas. I’m going the Behringer ba19a boundary mic inside the Cajon since the H8 will provide 48v power, and have the X/Y mic on a small tripod out of frame in front of the kick/hat/snare setup connected as an audio interface to my iPhone 15pro. I’ve seen many of these types of videos with a traditional Kick drum setup, but none with a Cajon as a kick drum, or with zoom H8 audio. What do you think? I hope to find a small niche for drum videos that has not been tapped yet.

  It's so hard to understand what the market is for drums and drum shells, I bought 2 drum kits in my life time. Who's buying all these drums?

• 
  @malonedrum2 күн бұрын

  Some people like to collect drums, others collect baseball cards, or funko pops. It's great that you've been able to enjoy 2 kits throughout your life, but it's really nothing bizarre or novel that others chose to try different drums more frequently or enjoy collecting.

  Thanks mike for another great video, i believe nordic is producing state of the art shells for many manufacturers, be interesting to know who they are.Have always thought most were using keller.Very excited to hear nordic is offering maple/gum shells as well as up and coming made in japan style shells.Drum kits have become so expensive,i think ill check out what the cost would be to configure a custom kit from them choosing my favorite hardware and finishing them myself.i think thats the way to go these days as long as the top manufacturers continue to over charge for there products.!!!!

• 
  @malonedrum3 күн бұрын

  Honestly, I don't believe top manufacturers are over charging, and once you price out building a kit with shells, hardware, heads, and all the other parts that go into, you'll see it's just an expensive endeavor. I like building custom because, I can design anything I want, the exact way I want, but companies aren't building these kits for $100 and then charging $5,000. The top of the line kits are expensive to built, aside form the cost of well trained craftsman making them.

• 
  @malonedrum3 күн бұрын

  I think it’s a very minimal piece of the overall sound, but it’s interesting because I think a lot of heavier style drummers want thicker shells, but in actually they may want thinner shells in order to have an easier time tuning lower. A good drum has a huge tuning range, but a thinner shell probably has an easier time getting lower or having the shell vibration being complimentary to a lower tuning. Just my opinion.

  I don't want to be rude but I'm quite disappointed with Nordic shells quality control: I ordered a 6" shell last year. Shell was porous with encrusted dark dust that even with sanding, wouldn't had come off: I would have destroyed outer ply. 2. Shell MASSIVELY oversized: could bearly fit the drumheads on it and the hoop nearly fit. Even more ridiculous: the lugs were so off : tension rods nearly didn't want to screw since they were so angled.. Smh Don't give me: oh but 6" are rare and they made you a favor doing it. Ffs: did they even test fit it?!? Suuuper disappointed. Sad cause they offer aaaaaa lot more interesting options than Keller but.. Keller are by far a safer choice. I orderded several keller shells: one small detail was off but I was quite satisfied!

• 
  @malonedrum6 күн бұрын

  I'm sorry to hear you had that experience. I've worked with Nordic a number of times and not had the same experience at all. I'm not sure if you bought just a shell, or had an entire drum built from Nordic, but it sounds like maybe other variables in your drum could also have played a part. As far as the dark spot on the shell, it's important to remember wood is a natural product, so there is variation from drum to drum, especially with certain species. I'd imagine if you reach out to them, they'd love to help you out or investigate the size of your shell and why it didn't work with your heads or hoops.

• 
  @jareddoran66056 күн бұрын

  There would be too much surface area of the shell in contact with the drum head, so much so that the drum head would barely vibrate (if at all). The bearing edge is needed in order to actually get sound out of the drum.
