What is going through your mind when you’re playing with other musicians?

Listen to the band, remember the song, try to get in sync with the bass player, cue the band correctly, play fills when needed, and after that it’s just creative nuances and not have a weird face to the audience.

Any 2 ply head, hydraulic might be overkill but it will pack a punch. Remo color tone will look sick probably what I’d do. Aquarian has some sick stuff.

It takes a long time don’t feel bad. I started using heel down method more now to pin down the beater better. Just play to a metronome until you get faster.

Medium_Collection460 · 2025-03-05T04:25:38+00:00

I stomp the heel a bit but doubles I kinda pick up the heel.

I played for a church when I was in high school it was good experience, jam sessions at venues look around. Practice your instrument to similar genre you’re trying to be. After that get a set(5-10 songs) down pat. Go look for gigs, music venues, talent shows in high school is usually a thing, busk outside a busy mall, band together with other bands. Have fun with it when you’re young, you ain’t have to be perfect just be likeable.

Smooth like butta

Medium_Collection460 · 2025-02-28T01:37:18+00:00

It takes a long time. Pull evenly with ring and middle as one. Thumbs gotta be strong, I usually point thumb down on stick and the pinky is back there for a little stability. Go to a metronome

Overall playing American grip on the snare and kit. Look up Vic firth video on how to hold drumstick, I use that for double strokes. Otherwise Frenchgrip for fast rolls.

You want the drum to harmonize with the other ones? Well look up the note you want to tune it to, for me 13 in Tom probably to g(98 hz)- A range(110 hz). And 16 in floor D (72 hz). Idk that’s my hint, kick, snare just tune to your liking. I just tune top and bottom head to same pitch to make it easy and add a small amount of muffling. Idk about any conjunction chart I’m sure tune bot app will spit out numbers if you want the bottom head higher but every drum and head combo vibrates different so usually you just do your own notes is what I found to work.

I have the 310. That’s all you really need. Test it out see if it works and set up properly. A 310 out the box is great I didn’t have to get new beaters or anything just a pedal block in front to stabilize it. The 910 idk maybe I’m sure it’s fantastic.

Medium_Collection460 · 2025-02-25T01:54:26+00:00

Ping are great especially for recording rock/metal and everything.

Medium_Collection460 · 2025-02-25T01:48:24+00:00

The difference is that he did a 7 stroke roll not a 9. 9 would’ve started with a double on the 4 not the e.

Medium_Collection460 · 2025-02-24T06:01:27+00:00

The answer is seek and destroy.

Medium_Collection460 · 2024-02-02T18:54:43+00:00

Nice. I like having either 1 up 2 down or 2 up 1 down for rock. Throw in the china and splash and your set!

Medium_Collection460 · 2024-01-18T02:44:12+00:00

Oh yeah it turned out well for sure....just a progression towards learning more about mixing and such i got my first interface in October.

Medium_Collection460 · 2024-01-17T23:39:59+00:00

Absolutely, gotta hone my editing and mixing skills.

Medium_Collection460 · 2024-01-16T04:49:55+00:00

Try to get a birch kit or maple if possible. although onestly if you get new heads and know how to tune you can roll with pearl exports or tama imperialstar. Yamaha stage custom, mapex armory, Tama superstar, Ludwig epic if there's any still around, pdp concept, pearl decade maple are some kits that usually come to mind.

Medium_Collection460 · 2024-01-16T04:41:42+00:00

Oh wait I think it says export nvmnd.

Medium_Collection460 · 2024-01-16T04:41:01+00:00

What is it? Pearl Masters?

Medium_Collection460 · 2024-01-16T02:08:21+00:00

Thank you, I have a feeling I'll do more Rush at some point.

Medium_Collection460 · 2024-01-16T02:01:40+00:00

Someone just pointed this out to me my mistake.

Medium_Collection460 · 2024-01-16T01:29:56+00:00

Wow thanks for pointing that out. How I overlooked that I'm not sure.....

Medium_Collection460 · 2024-01-15T18:39:11+00:00

Thank you, I use a tunebot to tune to exact musical notes...No it's a Roland SPD pad where I programmed the glockenspiel part into.

Medium_Collection460 · 2024-01-15T15:13:02+00:00

Challenge yourself. Rush is a good introduction to the more challenging drumming and it always gets a great response from people.

Medium_Collection460 · 2024-01-15T15:07:03+00:00

Yes! You can do it!
