Check this out

[redman]

I hope I don't start anything here ....but for anyone who is a fan of drums and drumming you really should check this out. It's an MP3 (DDRUM) drum composition from MPCman who I think was a V-member a one time , he's not playing V's but the drumming is very good indeed.

I had to right click (save target as) to get it to download. So here is the link check it out...... http://home.soneraplaza.nl/qn/prive/...ayingddrum.mp3

I'm pretty sure MPCman is still around....

He is, but he should be out doing clinics for ddrum instead! Excellent! Nice technique, nice ideas, wonderful choice of sounds. I really enjoyed that piece. You know, I really love my Rolands, but I have to admit, I've been blown away by the sound quality on every ddrum demo I've heard (are you listening, Putt?)! To my ears, those tom sounds are about as close to the real thing as I imagine you can get. They've got depth, resonance, and overtones that don't sound artificial at all. In my experience with drum modules, tom sounds seem to be one of the hardest things to get right. Gotta tip my hat to MPCman and ddrum on this one.....

P.S.: Uh, how much is a ddrum4?.....

HAHAHAHAHAHAHA

LOL

That track sounds incredible!

The execution and sounds are done very well.

The ambience and dynamics of that Ddrum4 are amazing. When I played that track through my 600 watt powered mixer the whole place just vibrated.



Good gag!

On www.ddrums.com MPCman already was unmasked after 2 hours.

It's Terry Bozzio playing there. Not MPCman.

Half the prize a Vdrum.

Don't be afraid: the ddrum4 can sound like Terry Bozzio's drums as well.

I doubt that...
Maybe on a MP3 you won't notice the difference, but when I saw him play live all I was thinking was;
1 I can't drum
2 My ddrums suck
3 I can't drum

[redman]

This was such a good gag on ddrums.com ,I thought I would help MPCMAN out and share the gag here to. I know I was fooled too ,so I don't feel so bad . HA , HA

Good one MPCMAN

It's still worth the download (excellent drumming)

4. but you can modify and adjust your own drums right. No matter if it is a vdrum, ddrum, edrum, fdrum or gdrum.

I don't think it's fair to guage yourself by Bozzio.

Bozzio is the best drummer in the world.

I've seen 2 clinics by him, and I have his videotape also. He's phenominal. Everytime I watch him play, I'm just stunned.
