This video is EXACTLY about what I am trying to do right now! Thank you so much! I got my kit a week ago and I put a hoop mount with a splash cymbal on the snare drum. I'll try to attach a boom arm extension directly on the pole the bass drum is mounted on with a crash or ride on it.
Beautiful. Love your ideas. Have to say - very intrigued with your second one listed - using cymbal arm as a cross stick effect. Sounds wonderful. Thank you for sharing. Wishing you continued success!!!
So Cris I purchased the Compact Traveller in 2016 and used it many times for jams small venue gigs etc. When using the 10in combo snare/tom as both I found the sound high for a tom if i tuned it so I could switch back and forth from tom to snare. In 2020 Pearl came out with a 14 in tom as an add on. I switched the snare mechanism over to the new 14in and it gave me much more versatility. Sometimes I use the 14 in the snare mode tuned medium and the 10 in slightly higher than the 14 in for Jazz and lower for Rock. At times I bing along a Sonor Safari 14 x 5 wood snare and then use the 14 as a tom giving me two in total. I have lightweight Yamaha Crosstown aluminum snare stand, hi hat and (2) cymbal stands which fold up to 16 in lengths and weigh 27lbs bag included. I also use two 10in splash cymbals for the hi hat and so considering the Traveller is in a bag and I put a small kick pedal in the hardware bag my all up weights are 55 lbs for both bags. If I have one complaint it is the fact that the supplied thumb screws to lock down the toms and the mounting arm for same, require brute strength to tighten so all three don't slip during playing especially if using the 14 in as a snare and cross stickingI replaced those (3) with ordinary short metric hex head bolts which I tighten using an 11mm box wrench.
Hi, Chris thank you for your help. I have a question. Would any cheap cymbal work as the High-Hat substitute? Or do you recommend any specific cymbal for the Pearl Traveler Compact drum set?
The bass drum is totally worth it. Sounds good and couldnt get any more compact. Good for gigs and for studying at home. And has a good response with mics
thanks a lot cris. great tips you gaved my in all your woderfull videos. good luck and come to visit me in israel and we will could play toggether... bye. RAMI SHULER ( vibes and percussion player)

Glad I could help!
I just bought it for my little son. Really helpful. Thank you very much
great ideas! I just bought the Compact Traveler and will be taking it to Brazil to perform for smaller gigs. It fits in a suitcase!
Nice! That’s how I brought mine to Brazil too!
I’m sure Cris can make any drum set sound good 😸
Thank you 🙏🏼
Awesome! You should throw an EMAD on that bass drum, you'll be surprised how much punch and low end it can get.
Your english is so excellent
Thanks, great tips
You’re welcome

thank you! Ideas always come up while using the kit for a long time!
Thanks Cris. Great tips.
You're welcome!
Looks like a great kit for practice or for busking.
Terrific!!! 🔥🔥🔥
That's great! Thanks
Hola Cris estoy feliz ya me llegó la mía hoy a Colombia, me servirán de mucho tus ideas. Gracias

Thanks.

Спасибо большое, Крис! Всё понятно!
Funky grooves
yesss
Thank you.
VERY GOOD ...FROM ITALY
Grazie! Haha
Cris Ribeiro prego di nulla 😝😋
I wish I liked the snare drum more.
Genius
you are cool =D
haha thanks
Do you have any problems with the kick moving while you play?
Sometimes. But it stays still if you put a rug below it

You can experiment with whichever you like!
Have you seen or used the expansion pack they have added? I am curious about your thoughts.
Is the bass drum worth it?
Only in videos. Ill buy one as soon as I have the chance

Obrigado pelo video. Ajudou muito. Uma duvida que tenho. É alto o som tipo pra ensaios ou estudos em casa?
Que bom. Pra estudar é legal abafar. O bumbo dá pra controlar bem mas essa caixa tem um volume alto por natureza hehe
Pra ensaio é ótimo pq é fácil de levar né. Se tu achar a caixa alta joga uma flanela em cima que é sucesso
@@CrisRibeiroDrums Show! Obrigado pelas dicas. Continue com os videos que é massa!
Estou aqui na duvida, se compro um set cajon ou essa bateria compacta. Primeiro video que eu vejo alguem tocando bem nessa bateria
Vc vai tocar o cajon como bateria? Ela sem dúvida
@@CrisRibeiroDrums Vlw! Agora ja sei qual vou comprar
Comprei!!!!!! Muito top!, melhor que eu pensei, Vlw!
@@guibatteur3863 demais, cara! Comprou aonde?
@@CrisRibeiroDrums thomann.de , paguei 220€ com a case
Have you attempted to change out the snare skins and bass drum skins? Would this be difficult?
No, its very easy to do. I've once changed the Snare Head but it worked best with the original head
Cris, aonde eu encontro uma bateria igual a sua?
Até agora só sei dela na Delta Percussion em Copacabana - Rio. Ou comprando lá fora
