11th Soft Drum Xchange will be at *scape

i can't get to the videos leh.... they say not available in your region... lol... sounds like cable tv
 
Thanks snow and ceing for the videos and pictures!

Ceing, I can't access the videos for the same reason as myner too.

Myner, is it possible for you to demostrate hammering a cymbal during one of the meet up? Do you do it through the trial-and-error method and hit til the sound you want?
 
woah. thats gona be very hard without transport... cos i need a sturdy table, a clamp and 2 hammers... i'll try to get a video done... cos i'm gona hammer a pair of hats soon.
 
a video of you hammering would be mighty interesting. anyway, i've always thought that the hammering of cymbals would require the use of an anvil?

hehe... i've yet to find myself a second hand anvil... i use both side of a hammer at the bottom to replicate an anvil...
 
Wah ceing, your camera like power leh. I love the first photo where Alfe is in focus but the rest all in motion. And the photo of Myner with his splash. Got arty angle sial! :mrgreen:

And Myner, that's very ingenious of you. But I supposed got lots of work involved? Cos the hammer side like very small leh. Must show us indeed!
 
not really... i use a larger hammer head at the bottom and and a smaller one to make impact. it kinda sucks sometimes when the cymbal slips and the impact hammer misses the "anvil" resulting in a depression rather a hammer mark.
 
Ok I've changed a host to the videos. haha. And thx for the compliments guys. :) I agree with snow that we shold give small breaks in between each speaker to give us time to mingle arnd, And i noticed that whenever someone comes in, everyone would be so excited, well thats a good thing but sometimes i feel that the reaction of the crowd was so over that they neglected the speaker. :(
 
the only picture i manage to take at last xchange

Myner 8-inch HandHammered Splash :D
