Band equipment
Hi all - this is a posting for any thoughts you might have on band equipment. I’ll put some posts in showing what kit we use and we’d love to hear your opinions - especially if you have any better thoughts on kit you prefer.

This is my kit…
Drum Workshop Pacific EX kit. Blue sparkle finish. 22″ bass drum, 12″ rack tom, 14″ & 16″ floor toms. Pearl “Ian Paice” 14″ snare.
Heads: Bass Evans EMAD2 batter & Aquarian single-ply resonant (printed with band logo)with no hole. Snare: Evans “Supertough” batter & Remo resonant. Toms: Evans EC2 batter & Remo resonants (all the resonants except the bass drum came fitted to the kit)
Cymbals (ordered left to right): Zildjian ZXT 14″ hats, Stagg 8″ splash (crap cymbal but of sentimental value), Sabian B8 17″ medium crash, Zildjian ZBT 16″ medium crash, Zildjian ZXT 20″ medium ride, Zildjian ZHT 18″ medium crash, Zildjian ZHT 16″ Rock Crash.
Hardware: mixture of Pearl (hihat, 1 straight & 2 boom stands) & DW version 2 (2 straight & 1 boom stands). Pearl Eliminator Double Bass bedal. Pearl 5″ cowbell.
Sticks: “Ahead” ST rock sticks.
Amplification: Shure SM56 on snare, rack tom, floor toms (shared). Shure PG57 on bass, positioned centrally 3″ in front of resonant head. “pro-Sound” omni mic underneath hihat. All mics fed to Behringer “Eurorack” UB1202FX powered mixer for drums submix before feeding to main band mixing desk.
Keyboard: Yamaha PSR E403 digital keyboard. Output also fed to the drums submix.
