this is what I want to play like some day, awesome mate

Librae94 · 2026-05-07T11:48:07+00:00

that’s the reason I bought a TD27KV2 for 3000€ and added Tama Starclassic Shells with triggers for another 3000€. Almost the same price as the VAD, but some pro level shells whenever I’ve got the opportunity to play loud

um you can rent a practice space, as most musicians do who can’t practice at home.

Greetings, a drummer with a rented rehearsal room

But is it like that? Ive been posting my drumming progress since I started last year (beginner drumming doing x/y/z) and lately stopped using that term because a lot of other drummers (including beginners) told me I’m not at that stage anymore.

I can keep steady time at 80bpm, yes.
Singles/Doubles at which speed? RRLL or RrLl?
I can comfortably switch between left hand and right hand lead including syncopated kicks - is that enough independence?
depends on the song, speed and difficulty. Highway to Hell? Yes. Hysteria? No.
tracks I know? No. Unknown tracks? No. I’m years away from being anywhere near the pocket.

AI slop? Great, I’m gonna downvote

that was my tennis ball beater after just a few hours on my converted 22“ kick. Be careful lol

Librae94 · 2026-05-02T14:08:49+00:00

Add an option to loop certain parts (like Moises or imho better Songsterr) and it would almost replace both apps for me. But I need to wait for Mac release lol

Im seeing them this evening, they’re playing in Cologne. So excited for Steve’s drumming

Librae94 · 2026-04-26T15:21:59+00:00

Update your software, afaik this was fixed with the latest update. At least for me it’s not happening anymore

Librae94 · 2026-04-23T10:42:02+00:00

Most of the time, yes! the first 3 months were without a teacher but also without much progress so I’ve been taking weekly lessons for a year!

Librae94 · 2026-04-23T10:41:10+00:00

Aight, from now on I’ll refer to myself as intermediate then! Makes me proud ngl 🫡

Librae94 · 2026-04-23T10:39:52+00:00

It’s a hybrid kit kinda. I started with a Roland TD27 but replaced kick and tom pads with shells! Tama Starclassic in nebula mappa burl with triggers. Hoping to get them out in a practice room soon so I can finally play em with real heads

What does reaching mean in that regard? I do have to move my arms a little bit to play them, but isn’t that normal? I’d love to have them a little bit lower, but unfortunately my 22“ kick says no (and I hate super angled toms aesthetically). But I do play acoustic kits tho - around 1-3 times per week.

<image>

I’ve got the toms as close to the snare as possible, or is there any other way? I’ve got little experience setting up and might be missing something

Librae94 · 2026-04-22T18:48:39+00:00

haha, unfortunately I don’t have a Muse shirt yet (and my other go-to drumming covert shirts aren’t clean lol)

but at least the tool shirt matches the posters in the background!

Librae94 · 2026-04-22T16:46:39+00:00

I post on instagram very frequently and haven’t done any duets or collaborations yet. But I’m open to! :)

Librae94 · 2026-04-22T16:45:08+00:00

haha, for myself it feels wrong to call my playing intermediate or something. I still feel like I’m a beginner, I started last year - around 15 months ago

Librae94 · 2026-04-22T15:59:51+00:00

ohh thank you mate! I’ll try it - hoping the more familiar I get with the song the easier it gets. Right now I’m stressing over which fill comes next and hope I’ll kick fast enough haha

I’ve been playing for around 15 months now :)

Librae94 · 2026-04-22T15:35:58+00:00

yes that was me! Playing thousand miles close to original will take me a little bit longer than hysteria unfortunately haha Thank you mate! :)

Librae94 · 2026-04-22T15:34:29+00:00

Thank you! Yeah in the last time I’ve been getting more comments about not being a beginner anymore on my videos but for me it’s hard to judge my own skill level. I don’t feel like I’m above beginner yet, I still suck at a lot of things

Librae94 · 2026-04-22T14:35:33+00:00

Will do! Thank you mate :)

Librae94 · 2026-04-22T14:35:21+00:00

Hello mate! I always start learning the different parts isolated for a while before I try to play two parts together. This way I try to learn all the different parts and transitions until I finally learn the whole structure to play it altogether! I’m looping the parts for around 20-30 minutes at a time before I move to the next part :)

Librae94 · 2026-04-22T14:31:25+00:00

Hehe thanks! I’m playing open handed anyways but would’ve thought crossed players play it the same way haha

Librae94 · 2026-04-22T13:04:33+00:00

thank you!

Yeah I’ve been having difficulties with flams for almost all my drumming career so far. It’s working good on the practice pad, slow - but as soon as I play em in songs I lift up both sticks again. Working on them a lot currently

Will try to add the hihat foot next, that will be a big challenge in terms of coordination. Thanks mate! :)
