I’ve been meaning to buy some drumsticks as the drum graphic score I made I want to perform, and the location I want to go play the drums does not give you sticks.
I purchased sticks, and a small tambourine as well as some shakers of different densities. I found this procedure really interesting as if I should have done this ages ago.

I want to use the shakers, tambourines and Drum sticks for the drumming, of course, make my own samples etc and incorporate this within my composition. I also bought a shock mount for my condenser microphone, as I don’t have one, and a mic stand, a round heavy base. K&M as these are great mic stands.


I chose the normal non-boom arm mic stand as I have an Aston shield which on booms it fails to work with the weight. I guess the next step is to record the drums.
