sburstall Posted May 31, 2008 Share Posted May 31, 2008 why?!?! Drum corps need more expensive toys. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LegendBattery Posted May 31, 2008 Share Posted May 31, 2008 Very cool instrument! I think that the applications indoors are huge (Blast, WGI, Concerts), but not on a field though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Considering the amount of abuse that corps equipment go through and the complexity of the electronics either a corps would need to have an electrical engineer/technician oncall or need extra electronic drums incase any go out.

Supersonic Posted May 31, 2008 Share Posted May 31, 2008 (edited) Actually, this has been used several times in WGI already. I can't remember if it was Centerville or Center Grove HS (I always confuse the two), but a few years back, one of the two used them for a portion of their show, mounted like batterie instruments on all the batterie players, and they wound up being in the top 3 (I forget what place) in Percussion Scholastic World class. It was a neat effect, but it makes me wonder if there maybe could be faking going on, for whoever uses it. Hypothetically speaking, how would you know the one tick on a line doesn't have his snare drum turned completely off? (Edited to rephrase the last statement.)

Cainan Posted May 31, 2008 Share Posted May 31, 2008 This has WGI all over it. DCI? I think not. BTW, I marched with Lance Delgado (in the videos)! Cool bloke. He was on 21 Jump Street! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
