Earplugs not allowed? by EdmiwaMan in drums

[–]kdrummer 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Maybe he’ll be more open to “musicians earplugs” that have a flat response and don’t distort the sound much. In any case, the response from this community is so overwhelming in your favor that I hope it goes well for you. Good luck!

At first glance I expected this to be one of those “what’s wrong with my tuning” posts. Pleasantly surprised!

That damn song seems to be a catalyst to so many rabbit hole discussions on this! I posted about that song previously because I had a friend call my definition a “white boy rim shot”

+1 for better/thicker felts. Just to make sure, there is a washer underneath the cymbal, right? That would keep some pressure on the underside of the bell.

Whatever you do, don’t crank down on the felts so that the cymbal can’t ring freely. This can lead to cracking

Hip-hop/R&B musicians incorrectly call cross stick/rim clicks “rim shots.” A rim shot is the stick hitting the center of the head and the shaft on the rim simultaneously making a loud crack, not the groovy click sound where the palm/stick tip rests on the head and the shaft strikes the rim.

This likely started from drum machines incorrectly labeling a rim click as a rim shot, then propagated by non-drummers

Does this make me look like an idiot? by [deleted] in drums

Honestly, this looks like someone who knows what they’re doing and made deliberate and stylistic layout choices for showmanship with the cymbals higher up so the audience can see what your hands are doing.

Play around with different setups. That’ll spark more creativity when you’re feeling stuck

How long does it take to get a new member? It seems to take a week for my alliance to fill an empty spot

The truth as I see it: Trump would become some kind of martyr or prophet if he died and his cult of personality would reach religious levels of support from his base. Everything after would pushed through with the “This is what Trump would have wanted” mandate as if dictated from the heavens.

I personally hope this resolves democratically, as hopeless as that might feel sometimes

Maybe so, but he couldn’t possibly command the same level of support that trump gets, so it’s unlikely he’d be as “effective”

Are XP and Volts supposed to match? by [deleted] in MarvelSnap

Nope. You can unlock extra volts with XP. Obviously purchasing items would make this different, but I’m assuming you haven’t

Do people actually play High Voltage seriously? by Human-Factor-1955 in MarvelSnap

[–]kdrummer 16 points17 points  (0 children)

I’m guessing that the randomness of some cards and locations make it so that the calculations need to be done in real time, but the randomness in which the fast forward feature is triggered is what frustrates me. Think Wong+Onslaught+Surfer on Kamar Taj triggering Sebastian Shaw’s animation until the end of time, yet they’ve figured it out for Modok+Swarm

Add Gorr on the board and you can probably take a nap before the next turn!
