My dream drum kit configuration


So the other day, I was tr0lling on the DW (DrumWorkshop) webpage, and I came across the "create-your-own-virtual-drum-kit" page. And I was hooked. And I spent the next 20-30 mins creating my own drumkit. So lemme explain it to you.

Hardware - Gibralter stands
Pedals - Drum Workshop
Cymbals - Zildjian
Drums - Premier
Drum Heads - Remo
Drum Sticks - Vic Firth

Cymbals

1. 16inch China.
-good hits along with the hi hat. Good effects can be given before the start and during the breakdown of most songs.

2. 14inch Hi-hat
-the basic necessity of any drum kit.

3. 10inch splash
-Ah they sound so good. :D

4. 16inch Crash
-For normal hits

5. 17inch Crash
-for normal hits

6. 18inch Crash
-for normal hits

7. 20inch Ride
-keeping time

8. 20inch China
-They also sound so great. :D

Drums :

1. 14x8 Snare drum.
Something like Daney Carey's snare. Will be deep as hell, so an awesome sound will be produced. :D (premier will have to make it specially for me, obviously. :D)

2. 8x8 Rack tom
Awesome rolls with a three tom set up.

3. 10x10 Rack tom
Standard tom set up.

4. 12x12 Rack tom
Standard tom set up.

5. 20x22 Bass drum
A standard Rock or Fusion size bass drum.

6. 14x16 Floor Tom
Good addition to rolls.

7. 16x18 Floor Tom
Almost a gong bass drum, so awesome sounds and song starts with the two floor toms hit together.

So all in all, a good metal, progressive-rock kit. Loads of cymbals, so there'll be something to hit and add into fills and rolls. The main addition to this has to be the 14x8 Snare drum. Will give an awesome sound if tuned light. Something like what Danny Carey's (Tool drummer) snare sounds like.
