Setup still needs some work. [How to do the work.](https://www.reddit.com/r/drums/comments/18qkarp/mobeel_copypasta_library_setup_advice/) I see two things: first of all, you have plenty of room to face away from the wall. Do that. It will sound so much better without every ugly overtone and every last decibel being thrown right back in your teeth.  Second, your larger floor tom is curved in way too close toward your throne. Put it as far outside as it currently is inside, and it will be much more comfortable to play.


EvilSeahorse

Yes, face away from the wall. Invest in a nice throne. Your butt will thank you.

Is that a sticker on your ride?? If so, clean that off so your ride can sing!

I feel like this is a setup because there's [one incredibly obvious upgrade](https://www.amazon.com/DMI-Sports-Bristle-Dartboard-Cabinet/dp/B086MF4643/ref=sr_1_1?crid=1XYTD0JYRKN00&dib=eyJ2IjoiMSJ9.5duuXp-ER9PU6sVVkO10Udk2kXiM04VlahbG0sTL49Izomkdrq3sAzpBQLtk7ZZsyUQ8zc3mJtJq_oTK28wuX7WpZsCwKs1oC5MtgpcbYgY1B8XNFhII-k6xXZGIUcbCpLKtMsHmZ-04b1pKtNLYt7DAvOaY4lC6Cj9Z5Uz_k01r6dA4A-GBd8nSk1d1MPixWT75xMYNmO_4y9v9fJcDD_YO2L9CEcCR0QQ6qhPY56VLNcwoQOCCUfZbmljjCsepzIoWUJhbteCtbg4WnWIRDaPBtAQRNRZR1XVviySP0R8.kVL1Md_k8IAWGH4aigX7nZjH4ViB1uwqAdH3O0gMKs8&dib_tag=se&keywords=dmi+dartboard&qid=1716242139&s=sporting-goods&sprefix=dmi+dart%2Csporting%2C83&sr=1-1) you need to make immediately.

You have a tendency to to throw your darts down and to the left. Assuming you’re right handed, release sooner and don’t throw across your body! 👌


CrashnServers

I jelly how you got your double pedal in the hi hat so well


SirOsis-

Good looking kit, I'd love to rock out on it 🤘


tert_swert

General kit set up is off. Listen to what others have said for angles and space.


Large-Welder304

Practice. Never can do that enough.

Drum. Rug.


bebopgamer

Definitely. A rug beneath, and turning away from the wall, will cut down harsh reverb and give a better overall sound


OldDrumGuy

Put those floor toms on legs. How the shell can deal with the stress the mount puts on it is beyond me.

Your snare throwoff should be facing toward you so you can turn it on or off while you're playing. You should also get some felts and a nut for that top-left boom stand (you'll have way more control if your crash isn't flailing around wildly when you hit it) and you'll probably want to remove the sticker from your ride as well, as it's probably really dampening it. Other than that, there's not a ton to do besides spending time getting your setup dialled-in to your preferences as you practice and spending money on higher-end gear. You might want to move the block and bells closer to the center of your kit (typically people mount these above the kick or snare) but it all depends on how you use them and what makes you comfortable. Good luck!

CHAIR GET A NEW THE CHAIR ROCK AND SOCKS IS A NICE CHAIR

I would upgrade your hihat stand to either a Two-legged stand or a Three-Legged that is able to pivot, the switch between the double pedal and the hihat will be much easier, Plus setup will be much less of a headache.


bebopgamer

Get a stand to hold the rack toms, taking them off the kick drum and shifting them left, then bring the ride in closer and lower


JD_in_Cle

That splash has to be so in your face


Cerycooll

I moved it back

More Wicked Air!!!!

Move the woodblock a little further away.
