When purchasing a drum set for beginners, keep the size and sonic characteristics in mind. All-in-one packages may provide more comprehensive packages, offering all essential pieces.
Focus on holding the stick comfortably, with your ring and pinky fingers curled lightly around its end. Notation skills won’t develop overnight; be patient.
Sabian B8 Pro Cymbal Pack
The Sabian B8 Pro Cymbal Pack features two 14” hi-hats, a 16” thin crash and 20” medium ride cymbals made from high-grade bronze with an exclusive Brilliant finish – perfect for players seeking to upgrade from beginner cymbals and gain more professional sounds.
This cymbal set will make your kit shine onstage or in the studio, featuring bright sounds that cut through any mix. Ideal for rock to jazz music styles – its clean stick response makes playing it easy while its wide array of sounds suit any genre or genre of music!
While there are a few decent starter sets on the market, most sound terrible and lack any genuine character. Cymbal artisans at Sabian took this into account when designing their B8 series cymbals; their aim was to produce something with great sound without breaking the bank for professional-grade instruments they use on stage.
Success! They did it! The new B8 series offers a comprehensive collection of quality bronze cymbals at prices easily affordable to everyone. To create these cymbals quickly and consistently, designers used virtual cloning technology on master templates; this method produces consistent results that rival much more costly Euro brand models.
These new cymbals feature bands of tightly clustered lathing to produce an undulating ripple pattern on their surfaces, increasing sensitivity and producing more complex sounds than standard beginner models. Furthermore, the double-ring design with O-Zone holes on its edges allows the new cymbals to respond more rapidly and with more intensity than traditional bronze O-Zone cymbals.
Thin and Medium weight options allow you to select the one best suited to your drum kit. In addition, matching effect cymbals are also available: penetrating ten-inch splash and trashy eighteen-inch Chinese. All made from high-quality bronze.
Sabian All-Inclusive Kits
Starting out drumming? An All-Inclusive Kit from Sabian may be just what you need to kick-start your adventure! These cymbal packs feature cohesive tones that work beautifully when played together; plus they save money over purchasing individual cymbals individually! Additionally, many sets include an additional cymbal which makes these starter kits the ideal way to go!
This pack includes two 14-inch hi-hats, a 16-inch crash and 20-inch ride. The hi-hats have crisp sounding hi-hats ideal for creating grooves and subtle accents while both the crash and ride have fullness and great Ping sound effects. In addition to all this hardware comes an All-Inclusive Kit complete with drum stool.
The All-Inclusive Kit features high-quality Sabian SBR performance cymbals that are perfect for beginner and intermediate drummers, featuring bright, clean tones that work in any musical style from jazz to rock. Furthermore, the drum set itself features poplar and Asian mahogany construction for maximum tone versatility across genres of music – not forgetting Pearl’s Opti-Loc mounting system that uses rubber isolators at three points across each drum for increased stability and resonance.
An additional advantage of the Sabian All-Inclusive kit is its microphone and mixer setup, ideal for beginner drummers starting out. You can easily adjust drum sounds as needed with their simple controls; plus the mics provide a balanced mix between room sound and drumming sounds.
Some Sabian All-Inclusive kits include two drum microphones that can help record practice sessions or mix for live shows. If you intend on performing more live shows, drum microphones will help prevent feedback and other problems as well as record audience reactions for added atmosphere and depth to performances. However, starting out may not necessitate this expense immediately.
