Ludwig Black Oyster Pearl Drum Set: Too Much Resonance Can Be A Bad Thing
May 16, 2008
Read the manufacturer's product description on any drum set, guitar or instrument for sale. Chances are, you won't find any boasting about having a moderate amount of resonance. However, as Jeff Botta of 54 Seconds adeptly points out, too much sustain can be a bad thing.
That's why he plays his Ludwig Black Oyster kit live instead of his extremely resonant Gretsch kit. Especially in live sound situations, it's important to remember that what sounds great on its own will change in the mix with several other instruments.

Nice feature, but I Would
Nice feature, but I Would have loved to see more PLAYING and less talk. Let's hear how these Ludwigs SOUND.
the problem is
that me holding a camera with a shotgun mic is really not going to tell you much about how good or bad an instrument sounds....especially in a live setting. It really shows you very little unfortunately...
thanks!
Patrick
