It looks like it is covered with those jiggly "google eyes".

Pretty cool huh?

Way cool.  Can't wait to hear the sound files.

Love the lugs.  I'd love to get some for one of my project drums, but I suspect that he's going to keep them "in-house."  I know I would - a unique lug design is a rareity these days.

He probably would make you up a set Jamez.  He could use the dough I think.

Tuning a floating shell- well it's as weird as the drum.  You can crank on the bottom and then hear a difference on the top and vice versa.  It's pretty bizarre.  You get it in tune and the drum sounds totally wide open and you think "man this is great" so then you play around with it some more and are like "wow, this is great too".  It's a different sound for sure.  You would think you would hear the eyeball rattling around- not so.  The cut is warm- very maple but without the body and sustain of a solid craviotto- more like the dw ply sound.  And for my purposes, those drums are too much for my tastes anyways.

Due to the plethora of downloads I reduced the file size to 2.5 meg

http://www.woolyinc.com/eyeballjam.mp3

 These are not my sigs, these are they jellybean vistalites and the Zehner custom snare.

Studio notes *I know how some of you guys love this stuff.

I'm using an EV RE20 on kick
Sennheiser 441 on top of snare
(2) Neumann TLM 193's as overheads (I think that's what they are called)

Focusrite pre pack 428 pre amp module at 16 bit 44.1

Put a little verb and predelay on the mixdown for fun.  I played the solo this morning- after I warmed up for about 30 seconds- this is the first take.  It's pretty awesome if I do say so myself Cheesy I was going to try and make you guys feel better and say I had been working on it for months, but I'm not good at lying so enjoy the Easter jellybean drum solo felix style- and I hope you like my new snare!!!   Cool Grin

Cool stuff, chief.

Yeah, that clinches it - I need to pull all the hardware off of my 5x12 SlingerYo, and get a honkin' 7" deep Shell Of Doom to put it on.  Between the 'Yo, and some other 12" snares I've heard via Internet sound files, I'm losing faith in shallower 12s - I gotta get me some depth to go with that diameter.

And the bass drum sound is, in the words of my second-least-favorite American Idol judge, "Yo!  It's da bomb, dog!"  Grin  (Seriously, it kills.)

Between you and LuvMyLeedy, you guys are gonna convince me yet to buy some friggin' acrylic shells and build a kit...
