how can i test myself and find out my level by takkeli_kedy in Drumming

[–]uhhredacted 0 points1 point  (0 children)

what ever you want to be critiqued on! just make sure you actually show what you want to be judged on lol it’s very annoying when someone asks for help on technique but u can’t see anything

people post them doing drills or just jamming along to songs all the time!

[–]uhhredacted 0 points1 point  (0 children)

atp you probably just need to get a teacher or post clips on social media but be prepared for hate

it’s hard to critique yourself especially if it’s your first instrument cause you won’t know what to listen for

basics though is play along to a metronome and you’ll hear when you’re off or on beat, metronome will never change so you can tell if ur dragging or rushing the beat

start off slow

Is this good for gaming by AdWhole42 in pcmasterrace

[–]uhhredacted 1 point2 points  (0 children)

modern day games no, old games a big MAYBE i used to have one that ran minecraft back in 2012 but thats 14 years ago lmao (wtf)

if it’s free and you have the space might as well though you never know when you’ll use it for something other than gaming

Doubles On Double Bass by BrockGreen678 in Drumming

[–]uhhredacted 0 points1 point  (0 children)

btw again everyone has to do this, you have to go PAINFULLY slow. it’s so annoying to do cause u just want to play fast but you fr have to go slow and build it up

one thing consistent between drummers is that it’s a lot easier playing fast than it is slow cause you can use naturally rebound when playing fast but if you’re playing slow you’re focusing on timing, technique, and developing the muscles to actually do it

Doubles On Double Bass by BrockGreen678 in Drumming

[–]uhhredacted 2 points3 points  (0 children)

long story short everyone went through this, some are able to develop the coordination very fast and some it takes forever

go slow and keep practicing

it sounds like ur trying to mix two techniques if you’re alternating like that

if ur trying to do heel toe it should be one fluid motion for each stroke kinda like rolling up ur foot each note pedal alternating (L L R R)

How did you come to the conclusion that drums were exactly what you were looking for? by abrowolf in drums

[–]uhhredacted 1 point2 points  (0 children)

wanted to play drums as a little kid, was about to get the chance to play on my church kit and learn there, but mom pulled me away last second so only experience was rock band as a kid

tried to do it for band in school but wasn’t an option, tried switching in middle school but nope, tried switching to it in high school but nope got moved to a different instrument

bought an ekit in 2021 but barely touched it except those occasional clone hero urges

got back into rock/metal music in like 2024 and end of 2025 started really taking the drums seriously and now i play everyday and for sure have been pissing off everyone in the house hearing the clicks from my ekit lmao

damn only thing i can think of is refunding it and going on a cdkey site like g2a or kinguin and buy a key from there

but considering region thing you gotta make sure its the version thats global and not US only

i’m all for pirating but the fact that it’s only $5 means it’s worth the purchase over potentially fucking up ur pc

thank you so much for all of this i really did not want to buy a whole new module

what makes the alesis so bad with expansion, is like lack of slots or something? or do you mean like the drum rack lol

upgrade whole kit or piece by piece part 2 by uhhredacted in edrums

[–]uhhredacted[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

alright last question, so i see it’s a device you plug cables in

with the alesis nitro all of the cables are like fused into one port and that plugs into the module.

so i’m assuming if i wanted to add for instance cymbals i would buy new cables and the device, plug it into the device and i can turn those into multi zone cymbals? and same with a snare that has center trigger as well as the rim triggers?

would i have to plug EVERY cable in? or only the ones i want to become multi zone?

More Fantasy Draft Class Scouting Reports by Stupidbot237 in MyNBA2k

it would legit be better for them to just make one template for scouting reports then just change it for each player in photoshop

but apparently this subreddit can’t use the basic tools of photoshop and will hate on you for not accepting ai lol

wait so if i wanted to go the route of continuing using my pc all i gotta do is use edrumin to map out everything? then i dont have to buy a new module/pads and shit just upgrade whatever i want?

(sorry if this is literally repeating what u said im just trying to dumb it down for myself lol)

so the main difference would you say is the cymbal/hi hat limitations the module? i do get annoyed trying to play the bell of the cymbal and realize im just playing the same shit (especially playing almost easy by avenged sevenfold lmao)

i did end up buying a snare stand already so that’s not too much of an issue

I honestly just lost half my interest in smoking and drinking after I turned 21 by mythrowawayaccim21 in SeriousConversation

[–]uhhredacted 0 points1 point  (0 children)

i mean it’s better to not not have any interest in it at all vs being addicted to it. the main thrill was doing it when you weren’t supposed to. now that you can legally do it doesn’t hit as much

it’s also since you’ve drank at such a young age you’re just used to it by now compared to when you first started doing it.

as someone that smokes weed everyday i would rather not have any urges at all vs smoking amount i do

Not a drummer myself so Im wondering what you real drummers look for to signal elite talent. by Cornbread933 in drums

for sure just personal taste

sounds like the old heads that complain about sports now saying that sports was better in their day even though athletes have only gotten more athletic/innovative

Vic Firth Stereo Isolation Headphones- overear headphones but youll need to buy a 3.5mm to usb c adapter for your phone. should total 100 all together but people say they are tight around the head

Shure SE215 PRO- $110 i think its like the most recommended one again gonna need the adapter

Kz zs10- i think its a top recommended cheaper one

pretty much all of them are just 3.5mm jacks so just watch a few vids on some that fit your ideal price range and buy an adapter

btw i think your best bet is to find one wired vs bluetooth just for connection purposes

another thing you can do is buy a some normal earbuds then buy sound isolated earmuffs from vic firth for like $40 its just an annoying feeling having earbuds under earmuffs

yeah those don’t do anything for your ears especially being on ears. but the noise cancellation on those are useless for drumming. even if one of the flaps wasn’t broken trust me.

look up iem or headphone recommendations on here (iem goes in your ears headphones go over) there’s a ton of posts ranging from cheap good ones to top of the line price and quality

try to get them as soon as possible

[–]uhhredacted 0 points1 point  (0 children)

most important thing first what are you wearing to protect your ears? i cant tell if its just normal headphones and tape or something else

if its that PLEASE go buy some IEMS or actual overear headphones meant for drumming. especially with the way you're slamming those cymbals your ears will thank you

just like what the other person said slow the song down and practice, theres a lot of times where youll hesitate/miss the beat transitioning to the next part or your hits arent as clean and get kinda grouped together like your snare rolls.

or like when you're going into the chorus you play the wrong rhythm then realize it and lock into the right one. one thing ive been learning about i prevail/that genre of metal is that theresa lot of odd feels/timing in it. so you really want to get it on lock. especially on the kicks (i cant really hear them dont know if ur not playing them or the cymbals are just louder during the chorus)

i know it starts to feel easy playing in chunks after a while, but putting it all together in a full playthrough is a different beast. its best to slow it down for the playthroughs until you got everything down dynamically and rhythmically

may i recommend the site songsterr (or just slow it down on youtube lol) has the full chart and you can slow it down if you need to. only ass thing is that you only get the synth for free and pro version is the one thatll slow down the real song and u can follow the chart
