Re: DTX size

2004-05-02 by philsiu02

Cheers. I have a 4ft space (in terms of width). Ive got a depth of 
around 5ft. (width being the back of the dtx (e.g parallel with the 
bass drum)). Looks like i might have to do some re-arranging. Im sure 
it will be worth it. I've managed to pick up 4.5 sqr foot of 
soudproof flooring though so i'll try and squeese it all into that 
space with any luck.

Thanks for your help.

p.s. anyone know where I can get the yamaha monitor MS50DR (I think). 
Its the 50 watt system with the sub and two satellites. Only problem 
is that i need it from a supplier in the UK and i can only find the 
100watt monitor over here.

p.p.s If there are any other UK members then check out 
www.percussionhouse.com They sell good electronic kits/accessories 
could prob order most stuff over too.

Thanks. 

Phil
