Biggest Electronic Drum Kit: Yamaha DTXpress
Sep 14th
A tour of quadbassblaster‘s two Yamaha DTXpress 2 drumkits joined together with custom created china and cymbal and splash pads with triggers bigger than Roland TD20 like a DIY experiment. This may not be the worlds biggest greatest largest drumkit like Terry Bozzio, but still not bad i think! Using hosa ypp117 ypp 117 adapters you can expand and split one port into 2 trigger inputs with separate sounds. The pedals are Sonor giant step copies, Morgan of Henker on Canibalblast video has them too, cymbals are Pintech Visulite wish i had a Ludwig Vistalite to go with them! There are many more death metal drum covers to follow after my latest edition to my drum kit so stay tuned!

Here’s a basic look of the Yamaha DTXPRESS IV Special Electronic Drum Kit that hasn’t been as customized unlike the one above.

Sep 5th
I started drumming a few years ago and am starting to make a full investment in my drums. Until now I’ve been playing on some fake brand drums and cymbals.
First, whenever I see small bands, the drummer usually has like 5 cymbals: hi hats, crash, ride, and what are the two others (one is usually small)?
Second, what would be the best brand (zildjian, paiste, sabian) and make of the cymbal? I really wish to know what the other 2 cymbals are.
My friend currently has 14″ hats, 20″ ride, 16″ china (looks kinda like an upside down cymbal),3 16″ crashes (totally different sounds), and 10″ & 8″ splashes (tiny cymbals). As for brands…Just gotta hit them and see what sound you like. We got one crash, hats and the ride in a pack. Zildjian’s Planet Z starter pack. They’re pretty good sounding. Deeper undertone than Hubby normally likes but pretty good. The 2 other crashes are Sabians as well as the splashes and the china is a Meinl.
