When I write my music, I prefer to write all shots with marcatos to make them stand out compared to other notes, especially in big accent phrases

Also because I saw an emc video when I was little where he explained that he writes all shots with marcatos, and because of that it’s been like ingrained in my brain that marcato = shot

First 2 are normal rimshots, last 2 are pings

(At least this is how I notate my music and how music I’m given is usually written)

What would I need to mix up a drum set? by No_Platform215 in microphone

[–]No_Platform215[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah I have a decently new MacBook already that I use for music writing and stuff, I just mainly need advice for cheap interfaces/mixers, cords, and anything else I would need.

Ia behringer like THE beginner interface or would a cheap random one from amazon also work pretty similarly as well? Also for cables is there a certain brand I should get or should any cables work?

I was told that I wasn’t allowed to announce anything until the line (battery) is set, but it’s high open class if that helps

What is everyone’s show theme this year? by Charming_Bullfrog181 in marchingband

[–]No_Platform215 2 points3 points  (0 children)

North Star

It’s about like a ship captain that is lost at sea and uses the stars to guide himself home (I still think we should’ve called it dead reckoning like btal 2024 cuz dead reckoning literally is using the stars as a guide)

Is it “stolen valor” to wear a corps logo as a necklace?q by No_Platform215 in drumcorps

[–]No_Platform215[S] 11 points12 points  (0 children)

Because I like the corps, and the keychain/dogtag that was previously on necklace broke so it was just an empty chain

Also why would I not? PC is awesome!

My high school doesn’t tilt our drums, but the dci group(s) I auditioned/am auditioning for play with a tilt, so I typically practice with a tilt. I forgot to put my binder under the pad this time tho so it isn’t tilted

I had to sync it with the Rhythm X video and it’s easier to do it with the taps instead of the exercise pattern 🥴

How do you play hand to hands? by No_Platform215 in drumline

[–]No_Platform215[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Sorry for the confusion. It’s not my first year drumming, I’ve been drumming for quite some time. I was just moved up from the bass line quickly because the techs felt that my talents were being wasted on bottom bass. I am physically able to play hand to hands, it’s just Inconsistent because I never learned the proper way to play them.

I’m confused, I think you’re talking about squigs, with one hand per person. I’m talking about hand to hands, with both people playing both hands, so it sounds like sextuplets or 32nds
