eDDie mAx Posted November 26, 2009 Report Share Posted November 26, 2009 In case anyone was wondering what that contraption is in front of his kick drum, I know I was!http://www.yamaha.com/yamahavgn/CDA/ContentDetail/PressReleaseDetail/0,,CNTID%3D29152%26CTID%3D551436%26CNTYP%3DNEWS,00.html Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bradm Posted November 26, 2009 Report Share Posted November 26, 2009 I've seen Larry Graves, of Mr. Something Something, use a small (10"?) loudspeaker stuck in front of his kick drum and wired into the PA system as a microphone.Aloha,Brad Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ike Posted November 26, 2009 Report Share Posted November 26, 2009 ?uestlove uses the same thing. It gives him that nice low kick sound. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tungsten Gruvsten Posted November 26, 2009 Report Share Posted November 26, 2009 yup - easy to build too - I've got a couple different ones using 6" and 8" drivers. They top out at around 2kHz so they add a lot of 'air down there' Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Velvet Posted November 26, 2009 Report Share Posted November 26, 2009 I was wondering about that - thanks! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SaggyBalls Posted December 1, 2009 Report Share Posted December 1, 2009 They sound great, can be tuned (if you put a non-mesh skin on the back) and don't go missing as easily as microphones. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
