Some of you asked about the triggers on the drums and what they use them for. Here is what Rossi himself said about them: "We use the triggers to open the gates, and for special electronic sounds in a few songs like "Puppe", and for explosions or gunshots."
What is meant by open the gates? I would normally take it to mean "open up pathways to new sounds and effects" (for eg to make pyrotechnics and lights blow on cue with the songs) but he was very specific, "gates AND special sounds AND explosions in a few songs." Open the transistor gates maybe?
@@A-Milkdromeda-Laniakea-Hominidnoise gates and compressors do opposite(ish) things. noise gates suppress signal below a threshold while compressors amplify signal below a threshold. you also have limiters that suppress anything above a certain level
they do the grooves and fills to make sure everything is coming out clearly. most of them start off with the "hit snare 1 then snare 2" thing then rip a decent little drum solo to see how it all sounds together. there's good reasons for that, and there's no right or wrong way to sound check an instrument aside from obvious things
@@hanledeezbars I agree with you to a point. The problem is that few people post the boring part of sound check so people go into a sound check and just start going nuts. Most sound guys want to dial in each mic before hearing the kit all together
But it has to have the groove because of the sum of harmonics, so there's nothing left! Until you play everything together! But the passage of each piece is important!
@@kujob6442i would say they defintely blend samples into their live sound. Nothing wrong with it, everyone playing to more than a room of people do it...
Some of them can for sure, but it totally depends on the drum tech and the band, but it’s always good to have a drum tech and a guitar tech that also knows the song in case a member gets sick or something.
I've sat through thousands of drum soundcheck. Not the most fun part of the process of live music making. But this guy is doing it as efficiently as possible.
@@guitarmeansfreedom It's fun for the first 100 times, then its a job. He is really good at tuning kits. a real expert, and you don't get that good unless you are passionate about what you do, and i'm sure he's a good drummer too...... But the real fun is when when you are the drummer in Rammstein playing music you helped create to a packed arena....
This guy was also checking the drums right before the boys came on stage at the concert I was at. He was just hitting the snare twice and obviously: crowd went wild. At first he didn't react, stayed all professional but once he got up he actually threw kisses into the crowd xD Reminded me of Jack Black.
@@JAMBI..The third one on the left is technically not a floor tom, i'ts a tilted floor bassdrum. He probably use it to some dubble bass drum -ish sound. Cool as F.
I remember when he did the sound check with the bass pedal in Chicago about an hour or 2 before the show started. It was like getting a taste of what was to come. That bass pedal shook the whole stadium.
I'm all about my triggers. Took a while to get Roland's all around the kit, but I love em! And no, they aren't cheating! When used as intended you blend the natural sound of your kit with the perfect samples of your VST
Of course they're not cheating. They will NOT make you sound like a better drummer! Autotune is cheating, prerecorded tracks is cheating - effects are enhancments to the musician's already present skill.
@@pandanarkystudios5198 I bet you do. Motley Crue is making more money than they ever have, with prerecorded tracks and lip syncing due to bloated Vince Neil not being able to catch his breath lmao. Even during the pandemic their 2022 stadium tour earned $125 MILLION. Yet people caught on phones: cymbal crashes before Tommy Lee had sat down... Nikki Sixx fist pounding the air with his pick hand during songs... and Neil still sounding like garbage even though he wasn't singing lol. There's a lot of cheating going on these days. People were coughing up $2500 for the best seats to watch 60yo men doing air guitar and lip sync - pathetic.
@@pandanarkystudios5198really depends. some guys in more extreme styles can't pull off decent dynamics at high tempos and use triggers to act like they can. Not saying that's you I've used triggers for the sound a lot as well
@Johnny_0706 I'm sure I didn't make sense in any way possible. Not one bit. But good job trying to single my answer out when you didn't point anyone else out about your comment, not making any sense. Good job with that
Smooth tuning on the low toms with the Diplomat or Ambassador heads. Take note how he only tuned in quarter turns and also had acute listening to hear that subtle difference without changing his listening position.
As a has-been, I miss setting up... drum check... microphone 🎙️ check 1... 2... 3... 4.,... and finally the first drum 🥁 beat to get the concert going... ahhh... the nostalgia.....
I respect Ramstein's hustle, I was never a fan of their music, but they have a huge following. They're friends with the guys from Tool, who actually are my favourite band, respect to them!
Man I knew Sully was extremely talented but what blew my mind was the drum challenge. That is the best shit EVER. I wake n bake to it make my friends hear it several times a day. You go Sully. I even stood y'all's album cover on my thigh 😂😂😂😂😂Keep me rockin my friend
This reminds me of the weirdest sound exp I had.... was around 1997.... no in-ear only monitors. Was a hall for about 1000 souls.... with echo like hell. We finished sound check and I had to live with my voice coming back to me from the wall ahead... Ok - ignore mode on. but then the crowd came in. ... Wtf... the echo was one thing but my voice was reflected by the heads of people very scaring.... it was like 1000 peope hanging directly at my ears and whispering to me. Wow goose bumps. Hard to explain, but it was so loud to me. Never ever had this again. Even at same location, as they modified the walls later. Cheers

And that's how an ACTUAL drum sound check goes. No crazy grooves and fills. "can you hit tom 1 for me?"

Wenn die einzelnen Drums eingepegelt sind,dann wird das gesamte Set ein Mal komplett gespielt um zu checken ob alles zu 100% klingt.
@@hanledeezbars I agree with you to a point. The problem is that few people post the boring part of sound check so people go into a sound check and just start going nuts. Most sound guys want to dial in each mic before hearing the kit all together
The engineer asks you to play the whole kit after you're done with testing each individual drum.
But it has to have the groove because of the sum of harmonics, so there's nothing left! Until you play everything together! But the passage of each piece is important!
sounds like canons going off. That empty stadium echo. awesome
Some of that will disappear because of the bodies from thousands of audience members absorbing those sound waves/pulses.
I love the blend of triggers and natural sound.
Overflowing with a hint julip.
Don’t believe they’re blending samples and mics.. believe the triggers are mainly for gates and unique sound effects.
@@jonathanandrew2909 huh
@@kujob6442i would say they defintely blend samples into their live sound. Nothing wrong with it, everyone playing to more than a room of people do it...
Yeah i saw those run to a Roland TD-30 possibly triggering slate drums from the module
He flexed a little at the end. These techs can fill in at any time of something happens to the band members.
no
no
Some of them can for sure, but it totally depends on the drum tech and the band, but it’s always good to have a drum tech and a guitar tech that also knows the song in case a member gets sick or something.
That's how Mat Mediro became the drummer for Trivium.
The tech from Fleetwood Mac filled in for Mick when he was feeling tired back stage. He did a great job.
Man the echo of those toms. Chilling. Would love to do a sound check on a stage like this
Там триггеры какое там эхо

I don’t play drums, but I watched this on repeat. Sounds so good
Such a sweet kit, double kick, two snares, two floor toms, multiple mounted tom options, but no shower of crash. I approve.
3 floor toms.
@@JAMBI.. I stand corrected
and double hit-hats is a good touch
@@JAMBI..The third one on the left is technically not a floor tom, i'ts a tilted floor bassdrum. He probably use it to some dubble bass drum -ish sound. Cool as F.
@@JAMBI..the one on the left looks more like a bass drum with the rim being deeper than the others
That floor Tom sounds like it’s connected to the inner earth core
Respect for the drum tech 🥁it sounds very good👌🏾

Gives me goosebumps just to hear that!
I’ve watched this like 20 times now and it never gets old
Drum checks can crush your soul. Quick, efficient, in and out.
Thank you sir for making my concert experience flawless.
Thank you the sound perfect for Christopher and Rammstein
Great sound!
Those toms!!
I love the sound of this box. Beautiful 🤩
That’s actually gonna be the first song they play.
?
@@Leo_rebena_drummer i think he means that it sounds so good that it has the potential of a full song or something??? i hate you by the way
Eu ouvindo aqui na sala com meu sub de 12" simplesmente pensavam que ia ter um show aqui em casa. Hehehej perfeito peles Remo sempre foi referência.
This is what it looks like when I play the drums
This kit is Tuned so well!!!
Love the clean coated heads!!!🔥
😮😮😮😮 beautiful sound
Que som maravilhoso!
Love the old school dive in the floor toms after strike.
Your kit is a dream! You are fantastic! Greetings from Mattia, 14 years old italian 🇮🇹 drummer!❤🥁💪
Love the kit
Красота, настройка ударных это песня❤
That kick on the left hand side! Absolute cannon...
This is the guy that is your hidden gem. This is the guy you want as your teacher
OMG It's sound so massive, even on camera. Of course, live sounds like bombs❤
Thank you my friend is that the drum set you said you're going to give me😊😊 thank you so much
That gong drum it sound like an kick drum!
Now that’s a sound check🙌🏽
Saw this kit irl at the uk drum show last year, insane
Tones are 🥶😮💨🤝🏾
The kit sounds powerful!!!❤
That is a nice kit!!!
It is indeed!
and super duper expensive, too.
dw drums are expensive af
Finde ich Klasse,das daß Drumset optimiert wird.👍👍
That drums set would be so much fun to play on.. it is set up so nice.. just drive the pocket
Лайк этому парню. Каждый барабанщик должен сам настраивать свою установку.

They push that drums to the fucking limit. It's so louddd. You feel your clouths shaking when he hits the kick. Fucking love it
They Push the Audio System not the Drums

Man, id LOVE to play that drums right there to a big crowd.
i like the e-toms fits the music well
great kit
I FELT that floor tom wobble in my BONES.
die wahren helden
Die waren Helden, jetzt sind sie die KO Tropfen Wichser, oder?
Yo those floor toms are so jiggly
Really pulling the lows out of those wow.
Thats was a Hell of a Solo...🤘😎

sounds checks
Love the slap back

the first tom sounds smart 😍
So🔥.

lowest floor tom and gong drum sound insaaaaane!!
Electronic drum hybrid setup!!
I would love to play Ramm4 on that set❤️

If I was a major league player he would be my first choice regardless that he costs a fortune haha.

Já fiz muito isso, saudade.
If he just start to learn, it will be hard to play tonight !

Greatest solo, EVER!
My favorite part
Those E-pads between snare and ride/crash cymbals look liked they’d be a MFer on stage in the dark. Him being that precise i# cool.
