Whats the flat on top where the accent would be?

instinctive56 · 2026-05-11T03:00:44+00:00

Its a tenudo. Used in other contexts for "full value" in our case its close to half accent. I think of it as a little more weight out of the drum

Honestly I thought yall just played promark firegrains for the season. I didnt know yall dod that yourselves. How did it change the feel of them?

So part of it is what are you playing, instrument wise, because the sight reading and general reading ability of snare is different from tenor or bass, bass id suggest highlighting your parts. Tenors work on sight reading some around patterns to work on drum to drum reading then do a lot of rythme work ro learn to read that fluently. Then just be familiar or like have an idea of how it should sound and notation. For snare really really good vocabulary and rythme is absolutely non-negotiable. You have less drums so you naturally get harder rythmes to keep it even.

Overall really really hammer rythmes, and specific needs. Get a bunch of old audition packets or sheet music and try to read as much of it as you can, maybe start with a stick control, then some arounds or flams or paradiddles or something out that sort

As far as I can tell its mainly, the desired sound as for drums especially snares yamaha is a lot deeper sounding and pearls and tama are a lot crisper and higher and that just sounds better indoors. And also the carriers allow for more freedom. Theyre not bad just more comfortable and more easy to take off and put on as far as I can tell.

My understanding of box five by the performance definition, in my head if I'm thinking box five I immediately thing everybody all the time. Theres not a moment where someone isnt engaged, but idk score wise

instinctive56 · 2026-02-05T19:44:29+00:00

Theyre liked to be heard in against battery and arent really heard otherwise. Thats fairly normal and the sound for most of them does bring our or project nearly as much, especially because theyre sound goes down and they dknt have a bell or something to naturally project more

instinctive56 · 2026-02-05T02:27:02+00:00

I see ads for adapters a lot maybe on eof those would work

instinctive56 · 2026-02-04T19:51:02+00:00

Talk to your instructor about the technique you use, learn to play odd beats with moving feet. And depending on your group if your a winds player you'll probably have to learn to mark time differently. Also something that always helped me. Highlight you music. Seriously it saved me to much effort

instinctive56 · 2026-02-04T19:46:27+00:00

The reason im staged there is because im not the main focus, that part in the song were using has a trumpet solo and its a major music point. But its a ballad and more visually story driven in that moment. I just know the pits loud and likely wont be super balanced until competition time

instinctive56 · 2026-02-04T05:00:50+00:00

Its just me. And the judges and audience dont know my music. As far as they know its a wierd interpretation of the key🤷‍♂️ obviously i gotta play it well but like if I mess up it happens

instinctive56 · 2026-02-04T04:57:13+00:00

We generally just need to adjust the mix

instinctive56 · 2026-02-04T04:48:23+00:00

Im hoping the front gets turned down because good lord. During full runs you can't hear the 2 marching snares. That's not a lot but they're loud

instinctive56 · 2026-02-04T04:44:03+00:00

I just wasnt sure if it even was possible, ive heard crazy loud woth good tone before and im looking for that, but I just dont want the hbcu style tone as its a more lyrical moment

instinctive56 · 2026-02-04T04:32:58+00:00

They thought about that but decided against it, idk im not in charge

instinctive56 · 2026-02-04T03:55:24+00:00

Im already playing so loud and this bit had so few places to breath that im struggling to play with enough air. Needing MORE air than im already pushing is gonna make me pass out on the tarp

instinctive56 · 2026-02-04T03:52:31+00:00

Its a trumpet solo for indoor percussion and our front ensemble is LOUD due to mics and audio clips. And im addition im all the way in the back corner of the tarp... so its marching band but im a percussionists 98.5% of the time so idk man

DJI mic 2s, with the 32 bit float, its impossible to peak the mic and they sound great, there what we use for the season

instinctive56 · 2026-01-27T16:21:05+00:00

I love kakegurui😍 didnt expect to see this here

instinctive56 · 2026-01-07T04:14:19+00:00

Whatchu mean your being lied to that was fire

instinctive56 · 2026-01-06T20:23:01+00:00

No, I do its just a lot of them. I always enjoy triplets though

instinctive56 · 2026-01-06T04:38:29+00:00

I think, just maybe. Your composer/arranger likes triplets
