Members Xplora Posted May 15, 2003 Members Share Posted May 15, 2003 I've seen a few kits set up in racks etc and they always seem to be fairly spaced out? Am I the exception to the rule when I want all my toms to be less than half an inch away from each other?? I want everything close together so that the rolls are hella fast...

Members Scheming Demon Posted May 15, 2003 Members Share Posted May 15, 2003 I have a rack and all my toms are 1/8" or less apart. Rack or no rack, you decide the spacing of your toms, it's never made a difference to me and shouldn't for anyone. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members preetz15 Posted May 15, 2003 Members Share Posted May 15, 2003 Not only are my toms all less than 1/8" apart from each other, i bring my snare up and angle the high tom down a bit so its a nearly seemless transition in terms of surface continuity (between the two). I absolutely love the way my drums let me set up the toms...everything is perfect, exactly how i want it. Another great thing about having not-to-deep toms is you can really put them level and below your chest. I love to not have to raise up unless its for cymbols. All my drums are spead comfortably out infront of me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members xtchc1978 Posted May 15, 2003 Members Share Posted May 15, 2003 I have a rack and I run a really tight setup. Toms are just far enough apart not to touch. I find with a rack (or stand mounted)I can get my toms lower then if they were mounted on the bass. I use deep toms, to get the angle, height and position correct for my style of playing is impossible on a bass mounted tom kit. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Xplora Posted May 15, 2003 Author Members Share Posted May 15, 2003 Hey is a small rack going to be a {censored}load cheaper than buying yet another couple cymbal/tom stands??? http://members.optushome.com.au/hardwick7/drums1.JPG and this is what the kit would look like once I buy the second splash and china (LOL) http://members.optushome.com.au/hardwick7/drumsmaybe.JPG I wanna chuck my bongoes on there as well is it going to be cheaper just to get a simple little rack, so I can use my stands and {censored} for more cymbals?
