BeatIt Vintage Test: 70s Rogers "Big R" Drum Kit
Towards the end of last spring, we locked ourselves away at Perlazza Studio (based in Poznań, Poland), where we tested quite a number of vintage drum kits and snares provided by Mateusz Wysocki and his MW-Vintage company, which (as the name suggests) specializes in vintage drums. We performed the test under the sonic supervision of musician, award-winning producer, studio owner and, most of all, a drum maniac, Przemysław Wejmann. To be more exact, it was drummer Max Psuja, who tested all the gear while the beatit.tv team recorded the video and the sound engineer/producer took care of the sonic side of things.
Max Psuja, as an utter vintage drum maniac, a former employee of a drum shop, and a great drummer, who has collaborated with a host of popular acts in Poland, such as Kumka Olik, Holak, Lilly Hates Roses or Yoachim, was perfect for the role of ’lab tester’. Needless to say, he was more than eager to do the job.
We have been publishing the results of our tests successively in the last few months, and there's lots more to come. Today, it is time for...

3. Test and sound
When testing the Rogers "Big R" drum kit, we also used a Rogers Dynasonic snare, Impression cymbals, EvansG2 Clear / WS Classic Clear, on bass drum Remo Powerstroke 3 Clear / Remo Powerstroke 3 Ebony with Rogers logo.
Max first presented the sound of the toms and kick drum produced by single strokes at different levels of dynamics, then the kick drum together with the toms to add the snare after a while. The whole thing was finished off with a rhythm figure using all the kit elements as well as performing a groove.
Rogers "Big R" - professional drum kit with professional Vintage sound. Toms are deep and low, rather quickly fading sound and a very warm attack. You can hear many different overtones but they are very pleasant to the ear. The kick drum sounds very low. Drums created for the studio and concerts!
