Members rdrummer322 Posted June 2, 2011 Members Share Posted June 2, 2011 I fit on a 5 x 7 carpet. Right now using 23 toms, 17 cymbals. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members 1001gear Posted June 2, 2011 Members Share Posted June 2, 2011 I get 2 toms and 4 cymbals on one rack bar supported by the kick drum and one rack leg. All goes on a 3 x 6 desk mat with the front throne legs just on the back edge. Too much geometry for me. It's about 32 fl oz spilled. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members Carminemw Posted June 2, 2011 Members Share Posted June 2, 2011 Mine sits on a 5x7 as well... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members FitchFY Posted June 2, 2011 Members Share Posted June 2, 2011 My carpet is 5'x7' and I easily fit on there. Oddly, the only thing that goes off is normally my stool and I - like to sit a little bit back and am prone to, well, leaning back. Good for the abs, ya know?

Members danrothmusic Posted June 2, 2011 Members Share Posted June 2, 2011 I don't know, and my kit isn't assembled right now. If this thread is still around in August, I'll let you know Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members kmart Posted June 2, 2011 Members Share Posted June 2, 2011 Too big and increasing; working in the DTX-Multi 12 pad controller pretty regularly now, so the area just past the hats has expanded, and now I'm considering moving the 14" FT over to that side as well and running 1 FT on each side instead of both on the right.

Members SYMBOLIC Posted June 2, 2011 Members Share Posted June 2, 2011 If I remember correctly my footprint is about 8'x7' ish. I also sit on my carpet, so my kicks don't creep away. If I didn't use a rack my foot print would be much larger. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members Zon5string Posted June 4, 2011 Members Share Posted June 4, 2011 I have my rug cut down to 6' x 6'-6" and fit everything on it, throne included. I could shave down the corners a little, but that allows me to "reserve" that much space so I can get in and out comfortably. If I have to set up in a corner, the back edges of the rug may go up the wall (or tuck under) a little. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members formula428 Posted June 6, 2011 Members Share Posted June 6, 2011 Used to play my offset-kick 5-pc on a 7' x 7'. However with the Delite 8-pc, guessing more around 9' wide by 8' deep. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
