LAME

psssycho		2005-05-09 12:16:06 AM

Terrible. Just terrible. Extreme lag, bad samples, a beginner's comprehension of Flash. Don't bother.

Millbudda		2005-05-09 12:17:53 AM

All that and no cowbells?

starclassic		2005-05-09 12:20:38 AM

pretty bad... I thought it would be cool

sir_nose		2005-05-09 12:20:47 AM

I've something like this in my basement

TheBigPapi		2005-05-09 12:21:12 AM

OMG!!! NOW I CAN PLAY LIKE TRAVIS BARKER FROM 182!!! HES THE BEST DRUMMER EVAR!!!1!1! HES SO HOT!!11!1LOL

hdhale		2005-05-09 12:21:20 AM

Took some frustrations out on the poor things...enjoyable.

If you are complaining how badly it sucks, I suggest it's probably because you didn't think of it first.

How many drummers does it take to screw in a light bulb?

Six. One to do it and the other five to say how Neil Peart could've done it better.

tylerdurden217		2005-05-09 12:22:58 AM

I just held down my space bar and it was like the intro to "Hot for Teacher."

Why don't they play that at strip clubs anymore?

Erom		2005-05-09 12:25:13 AM

this could be cool, if it didn't suck

Paedophile_Deluxe		2005-05-09 12:26:38 AM

This is really shiatty. The bass drum is way too slow to react to actually do anything. Among other things...

SADNiF		2005-05-09 12:26:59 AM

Tenchi, not funny.

irockalot		2005-05-09 12:27:59 AM

While i recognize the amazing talent of Neil Peart, he just doesn't do anything for me. Too technical i guess. I like more style, hence:

Best. Drummer. Ever.

DarkCougar		2005-05-09 12:28:05 AM

pshaw:
More like n-k-e

Rockdrummer		2005-05-09 12:29:35 AM

drum sounds by chip.

/micro-chip.

optimus_prime		2005-05-09 12:30:09 AM

A minute of enjoyment, tops.

Overall, worth the price of admission.

Lunchbox-eB		2005-05-09 12:30:09 AM

Man this thing sucks. How did it get green lit? I kick harder beats with my fingers and desk.

Incetardis		2005-05-09 12:30:34 AM

Excuse me, Neil?
Danny Carey ownz j00.

No, it's because the latency is too high and irregular for it to be playable, if you're trying to do anything more than just making noise.

Neat concept, though.

wirefish		2005-05-09 12:32:36 AM

Dude likes his cymbals a wee bit too much.

Betenoreus		2005-05-09 12:34:05 AM

so what's the combination for the basic 4-4 rock beat?

please help, I know nothing

hnlzero		2005-05-09 12:34:37 AM

Why the fark did they not make the bass double pedal adaptable?

Javelin22		2005-05-09 12:34:56 AM

I like me some Carter Beauford.

FortySix and Two		2005-05-09 12:35:07 AM

Way too much lag to keep a rhythm.

Brainwash		2005-05-09 12:35:19 AM

Now I can drum like that guy from Def Leppard

/just like my momma said

j450n		2005-05-09 12:35:47 AM

amusing, but sucky.

/knows nothing about drums

motionblur		2005-05-09 12:36:08 AM

Daney Carey? You've got to be farking kidding me. Why listen to mediocre 90s drummers when recordings of Bonzo are available? Even Buddy Rich in his retirement could easily outplay any garbage player from the 90s.

motionblur		2005-05-09 12:37:07 AM

One exception to the 90s suck rule: Carter Beauford.

Minus1Kelvin		2005-05-09 12:37:19 AM

Saw Fear Factory in concert a few months ago...damn this boy can play.

hnlzero		2005-05-09 12:37:56 AM

Sad situation that...

Barker isn't by any means a bad drummer. I personally despise Blink 182's music but it's more of a case of a good drummer getting a good deal to play shi'ite music.. for good money.

or so it seems to me.

/insert "drummer X > your personal favorite drummer" comment here.

hnlzero		2005-05-09 12:38:32 AM

mike portnoy btw

vossiewulf		2005-05-09 12:39:22 AM

Tenchi, I disagree with SADnif, that was funny.

If you want something good out of this thread, and you enjoy a great show, get Rush in Rio, it's pretty amazing.

phathead		2005-05-09 12:40:41 AM

anyone ever heard of the Drumbassadors? freakin' amazing drummers, I tell you hwat.

/not a drummer
//loves the drums

40oz_A_Knight		2005-05-09 12:42:32 AM

Was trying to match Absu's double bass speed, barely made it to Lars Ulrich's tape-looped "Dyer's Eve" speed. Lag sucks.

kidd		2005-05-09 12:44:50 AM

Is this what Meg White records with?

slimsmith		2005-05-09 12:45:15 AM

polyphony would be nice. it's kinda essential for drummers...

Krycek		2005-05-09 12:46:25 AM

I played my drums today. Pissed off the wife and since it's mothers day I stopped :(

\drummer n00b
\\wishes he had 1/10000th of the talent Neil Pert has
\\\always wanted to use slashes

wPiPeSw		2005-05-09 12:46:26 AM

Minus1Kelvin

Easily one of the best drummers ever, but sadly overlooked. :(

aginghipster		2005-05-09 12:47:44 AM

Neil Pert was a good drummer, but my favorite rock drummers are Keith Moon and Nick Mason. Have you seen Pink Floyd Live in Pompeii? Truly awesome.

McBatt		2005-05-09 12:47:57 AM

1. Keith Moon
2. Matt Cameron

hnlzero:

Didn't Mike Portnoy's site used to have a virtual drum kit on it? Or was it just an overhead view with a numbered index of all his equipment? I can't seem to remember. Anyway, good call. That man is a machine.

margarine of error		2005-05-09 12:53:38 AM

I think this is a fun little waste of time. Entertained me for longer than most web sites. Yeah, it lags, but so what!?! You want real drum action, then uhm, get a real drum, maybe?
