built the DrumKAT Turbo 2000 percussion controller I play on currently. Music
equipment links for the companies that contribute to the Vince Drums Music
project, featuring record producer, Vince Schaefer View
with Internet Explorer, No Netscape!
Gear includes:
Alesis QSR Synthesizer, Roland R-8, Mackie 1202 Mixer, DrumKAT Turbo
2000
percussion controller, Alesis Microverb 4, Opcode Studio 64X MIDI Interface,
Cheeta Master Series 5 Octave - 8 zone - 4 layer keyboard, Topaz MIDI light
controller dimmer, Shure SM-57 microphone, Shure E-1 ear monitors, Yamaha Breath
Controller, Pro-Mark drumsticks, Mackie SRM450 speakers, as well as many pedals
and accessories from DrumTech. A Digitech Vocalist Workstation was added
in the fall of 2001 to enhance and process my vocals. I started playing with
Ahead Drumsticks during that time also.
Much of the equipment used has been fashioned and created by Vince
Schaefer. Included is the Fish Tank style bass drum, Switch Drums, Drum Lights
and more! This drum set can play any imaginable sound or instrument, along with
lights! The whole set-up, including the PA or sound reinforcement system and
lighting systems, fits into a car. Using very modern technology makes this sound
clean and loud as I need it. This is accomplished with three midi interfaces.
The DrumKAT, the Cheeta midi master keyboard, and the studio 64X interface
from Opcode. Recording is done in Cakewalk, with audio editing done in Sound
Forge. To hear what this stuff sounds like when drummed on, click: Download

New Stuff we've added recently!
- Update to the incredible DrumKAT Turbo 2000
Much faster, smoother, with some great features that will enhance the ’Vince
Drums Music’ project. High hat is now smooth like a real one.
Personal Samples 8 meg. Of personal
samples I cut up and processed in Soundforge 4.5, are stored on a PCMCIA card,
in the QSR. An additional 8 meg. will be added soon.
Mackie SRM 450’s Incredible
bi-amplified,
active cross over, servo controlled, auto-on monitors that are loud enough to rock
a pretty big room. I’ve played with 4000 watt systems in the past that were
not this loud. Unbelievable bass, brilliant clarity, and two only take up half
my trunk. The two that were just added to the system keep Vince cranking in
stereo!
