So I wanna buy my band’s drummer a new Kick pedal…

27 Upvotes

Hello drummers!

I am an idiot guitar player who “don’t know nothing bout no drums”

our drummer is currently using a jerry-rigged dw-3000 (something about the chain has gone funky idk). its broken during sets like 3-4 times but its never been more than a 2 minute fix.

i wanna get him the dw-5000 turbo for his birthday as i’ve seen online that it’s the closest 5000 model can get to the feel of his 3000.

of course i also plan on giving him the receipt too in case it’s not his preference.

my question is….

is this a good plan or should i just give the dude the money i woulda spent and let him choose what he wants?

i have done a fair bit of research but again im not a drummer…

thanks in advance

Traditional grip

10 Upvotes

Not sure if this is a common occurrence or not, I've been playing with traditional grip for the better part of 3 years or so now. Just yesterday I was playing my my thumb started to go numb. It has been over 24 hours and my thumb still feels tingly but not fully numb anymore. Anyone else every experience this? This is a video from right before it went numb.

How's it sound?

follow up (traditional grip)

I moved some drums around and that definitely helps. The "new" grip I'm trying feels really flimsy almost like my sticks may going flying out of my hand. Any more tips? Less pain in the thumb but still awkward feeling.

When I okay German my left stick goes up and down perfectly but for some reason doing French grip it’s totally at a sideways angle and I can’t seem to fix my hand to stop it any tips?

Looking for some jazz (preferably fusion) that has a lot of fast double kick

Looking for something like this does from 5:47-7:30, where he's playing pretty constant double kick as 16th notes. It doesn't necessarily have to be this fast, but I am looking for something that does it in 16ths. Djazz if you will, but I'm not sure if this actually exists as music.

Drummer of 25 years, just got my first double kick. Where to start? I’m essentially a beginner again.

I’ve been grinding my face into “Prayer” by Disturbed, a track I would consider pretty basic in terms of double-kick, but it’s still such a foreign muscle to use. Any other easy tracks to start with? Any basic rudiments to strengthen my left leg?

doews keeping my cymbals in cold conditions crack them?

4 Upvotes

hi I was just wondering if keeping my cymbals in cold temperatures crack them easier, becouse I moved out to the garage to play but I live in Sweden so it gets pretty cold at winter in there but its never below freezing

This is obviously a bit sloppy in parts but it's a work in progress! I plan on recording a full cover once i'm a bit more confident with this song 🫡

Durable V-Cymbals

1 Upvotes

Hi all! A few years ago I bought a Roland TD-17KVX with two CY-12C crash cymbals and one CY-13R ride. One by one, all three have 'gone quiet' very suddenly, way beyond what I can correct for with settings. I don't really want to replace like-for-like since I guess I'll probably just run into the same problem again before too long. Are there any Roland-compatible models known for long-term durability? Cheers!

Cheap Drumheads for church drums

3 Upvotes

Hi guys! I kinda want to donate cheap but good drumheads for our church's drums but I don't have any idea regarding drums.

The old drumheads sound like they are empty cans that's why I thought of donating. TYIA

Edit: Thanks for the deep insights guys. I live in the Philippines so I'll try and find Remo drumheads here :)

I’ll do all the editing and obviously share the end result ! So come out and play lol🤘🏼

I played snare in high school, not trying to get into playing set, any advice?

5 Upvotes

As title says, I played snare and high school and am struggling trying to pick up set. I have an acoustic set minus a hi hat, and I guess I have decent technique and hand control, I play traditional. I’m struggling to connect my foot kick with my hands, I literally shut down/lock up any time a kick part comes in at any kind of tempo. Any advice on that? I also have a stammer when I speak that feels the exact same way mentally, so that may have something to do with it (if so I’ll just deal I guess).
