I have to say I've read about how bad the yammie drums are.. always thought the drums where the best in arrangers! They are the best... I was listening to some original tunes I've done in the past and this one hit me... Let me know what board would have done this better...

Thanks for sharing. I believe Yamaha drums are great - maybe not as real as other boards, but good enough for my use. A far cry from the Hammond Auto-Vari box I used at times for hours per night

beachbum,is that youre own voice ?
I like youre recordings,nice job !

Impuls,

PS: no other board can beat the T2.(on this moment)

Yamaha has the best drums that Yamaha makes!

(Man, this fence is uncomfortable!)

Roland drum sounds can be good, but only if they're the same as something different from those other kinds.

Ian

Meaning........you're torn between Korg and Yamaha?

zuki

And I was thinking,"Mmmmm...there's no fence too sharp for Dave."

Ian

I don't recall I've ever said they were bad...

Just not as good as some others. With sample ROM as cheap as it is now, it's hard to find ANYTHING that sounds 'bad'!

Now, if Yamaha started putting the same sounds and kits from their DTX drum products into their arrangers (like Roland do with their very popular V-Drums line), I'm pretty sure you would be able to rave even MORE about how good the drums are!

Anything that passes muster with REAL drummers is usually the thing to shoot for, if you are after realistic drums, at least...

But reality isn't all it's cracked up to be...

meaning ......... baaaaaad subject. No win situation !

Yep this screams mine is better then yours big time!

They're ALL great. I wish I had the dough to get a PA800 just for kicks. I might just do it........

zuki

I did not want to start a debate on which is better.. I had not listen to some of the tracks in awhile and the drum track on this song I thought was really good and could not wish for a better track.. (Plus, if it was a real drummer I would have to pay for his beer and deal with his attitude and how he could not make it cause his car broke down... ect...

I just love the board, that was a 3000, I have since moved on to the 900 and really can't tell to much difference at this point..

Btw/Impuls - that is me terrorizing the neighbors!

Hard to tell that from the topic title...

Give Frankieve a call he'll do you right

Hi Beachbum How you doing!

I always loved the Yammie 9000 PRO because you could assign the drums to one of the sets of outputs and into the mixer. This board was one of my faves over the years and the drums (due in no small part to the above)always sounded crisp and sparkly.

I like Korg drums bit better, but that's my personal taste. The reason I wrote is just to say I enjoyed listening to the songs. Very nice!

One is personal......one is general
