Jose Pasillas

In the YouTube video "Jose Pasillas - Drum Set Tour (Part 1 of 2)" by incubusTV, Jose Pasillas discusses his choice of the DW Collectors Series Clear Acrylic drum set with gold hardware, mentioning he chose it for its understated appearance.

"I mostly use this with a combination of a snare hit, so just a really fast, loud sort of combination with a snare and crash."

Its a recent change for me, and i found that Vater Stick works really well in my hand. Vater Sticks are great and i have found exactly what i need and i hope that it will be a long relationship.

According to the website, Jose uses 12" Evolution splash as one of the cymbals on his drum kit.

Incubus producer Tom Syrowski used the Stressor on a kick drum mic during recording of album "Adolescents".

""We had several things patched into the Neve desk while recording, like a graphic EQ, usually the API 560, on individual kick mics, while I had some console Neve EQ on the snare and then overall Neve 550a EQ on the snare bus. I had [Teletronix] LA2As on the overhead mics, but they didn't really compress; they were just there to make sure that if José suddenly blasted the snare, it wouldn't overload in Pro Tools. I also had the ADR Vocal Stressor F769XR on the kicksnare mic, which is a cheaply made compressor that has some kind of grounding issue, but it sounds great on that mic. There were times when the kick, snare and kicksnare mics were all I needed. Those three, as well as the room mics, are the only mics that we compressed to tape [Pro Tools]. We also used the hardware SPL Transient Designer to alter the attack and sustain of the snare and other parts of the drums.”
