My church is a small church, minsan nilalabas namin yung drums eh.
Is ambassador okey dun?
can you tell me what is the difference between ambassador, pinstripe and emperor? And with dotted?
just would like to share some ideas...
If your room is small...i don't think ambassadors would fit your kit...masyado siya nag proproject...pag maliit ang space yung sonic vibrations dun, hindi mas nakakagalaw kaya it tend to make your sound suck...haha! pero don't let this fool you, iba ang tunog ng kit or ng cymbals sa driver's seat at sa watcher's side.To satisfy your focused sound, pwede ka mag 2 ply heads(eg.pinstirpes,protone or any 2-ply head that has a built in O-ring(muffler), pero, wag mo masyado muffle...may tendency mag tunog karton yan! hahaha

. kaya some drummers adjust their reso heads(bottom head) to control the overtones...remember that tighter reso tension provides more warmth...vice versa.
But, when you're out there gigging, ambassadors ang pinaka or isa sa pinaka ginagagamit siguro because of its warmth, volume, sensitivity and projection.
on the other hand, if you want a 2 ply head, it is more durable, but usually, it lessens the head's warmth(overtones), but enables your kit or snare to sound more focused(yung buo ang tunog).
Now, dotted heads like CS dot, Coated CS dot, etc are heads that produce a focused sound like a 2 ply head when hit at center but has the warmth and sensitivity of a single ply. In short parang combination. and hirap lang dito...bihira ka makakakita sa mga music shops.
Preference talaga yan nagkakatalo sir. Minsan you would prefer a single ply or minsan naman you would go for 2 ply heads. What matters most is you know the sound you're looking for.
It's ok to ask other drummer's opinion, malaki help yun, pero, ikaw pa rin yan... sa umpisa, mahirap mahanap ung tunog mo, pero as you continue drumming...parang journey lang yan...madami ka madidiscover... hope this helps bro.
