The kit
Resurrected &packing a punch
This one-of-a-kind 1968 vintage Ludwig kit tells an unlikely tale of happenstance - and resurrection.
It was found peeking out of a countryside dumpster by renowned Swedish drummer Miikal Häggström while on tour. He could not believe his luck. He carefully refurbished it, and quite literally brought this ultra-dead kit back to life.
Customized tohit harder
Converted into concert toms (without resonant heads), this kit is now a custom-built, meticulously treated thump machine, packing a serious punch and a boatload of mojo.
The studio
We built a custom "dead box"in Stockholm’s legendary Ingrid Studios.
To get the perfect punchy sound, you need to control the drum’s ringing and resonance and the room’s reflections. Usually, you would encapsulate the kit with dampening gobo walls, and treat the drum heads with dampening material. But this is no usual kit — it's the deadest of the dead.
Every kit piece was dampened to perfection using classic methods - tea cloths, towels, blankets, tape, moon gel - you name it.
Not bad but needs time spent to get the most out of it.
Much of the default samples are very thin and I get that it's based on the original hardware though some options in the plugin would have been nice but not necessary. General operation is good both as plug in and stand alone with some excellent features. Auto fills work nicely. Looking forward to spending some more time with it to get the most out of it.
These are a fantastic solid stand. I have my. Adam A77h’s on them . However, if I’m wrong cable management would be a blessing on the back but have been to the hardware shop to get some cable clips.
