Pen Tap :: Beginner Beat #1

[Kratos9900]

I have a friend who can do this with pencils. are pens easier for a beginner(me) or does it matter

[homeworkishard]

when you practice, close your eyes it helps

[iFRiKLiNG]

My teacher gets annoyed when me and my classmates pen tap !!

[ARMELI0Nminecraft]

What pens do you use (or recommend?). Your pens seem to give a bit more click which I like.

[YourHowToDo]

@ARMELI0Nminecraft

In this video, I use BiC, the sounds depend on what surface you beat on I find :)

[blackfire1950]

I did the beat but left out the 2 at the end is that ok but it still sounds pretty good

[YourHowToDo]

@blackfire1950

Yes of course, these tutorials are just various beats I learned myself or from friends, you can change them to suit your style :)

[xZzOmnixXz]

[12ViperPilot]

How do u do a 2 then 3 right after? My fingers always get in the way or i drop it

[YourHowToDo]

@12ViperPilot

It's to do with how your holding the pen, I use my thumb on one side, and my index and middle finger on the other side of the pen, this works for me. Let me know if this works for you :)

[12ViperPilot]

@YourHowToDo hey thanks, thats alot easier now :)

[MACdaddy892Gaming]

i have trouble tansitioning from 3 to 2 any advice

[josephddd117]

@MACdaddy892Gaming hold the pen with your pinky (wrap around the pen with it) and just hold the pen with your pointer finger and thumb. When you go to three just let go of your pinky grip and slam the pen on the table

[PinkPl0x]

how do i prevent the end of the pen from getting tapped when i do #1?

[YourHowToDo]

@PinkPl0x

Try bending your wrist back further? :)

[HalomasterA69]

@YourHowToDo How do i do the snare? I keep hitting my wrist on the table and it ends up being the kick , how do i prevent that ?

[mychemicalromancegrr]

You can do soo many things, I swear this is the best channel on tutorials :)

You help me with pen beats..and soccer ;D

[gunshotbill]

lol am sitting here in my room trying to do the same 1 over and over

[YourHowToDo]

@gunshotbill

Keep trying, you will definitely be able to do this beat, break it down into two sections, and practice each section until your comfortable doing it, and then piece them together, hope this helps :)

[gunshotbill]

@YourHowToDo i got it now am on 5th :D

@YourHowToDo the god damb penn ceeps falling out of my hand how do i prevent this?!

[YourHowToDo]

@RicoD95

I hold the pen with my thumb, index and middle finger, try using a larger pen or a Sharpie marker. :)

[MrEkacbun]

Wait a minute, the video stops at 0:56.......

[Soblast1]

XDDDD i couldn't do it so i took an brake of 5 min's to chill out and in the break i was so bored and i start to pen tap and wiithout realising i was doing it XDDDDD

[YourHowToDo]

@Soblast1

Congrats, keep it up and you will learn all our beats :)

[Soblast1]

@YourHowToDo i am at the last beginer one and at that (121 32) i got alway's stuck beacuse idk why but some time's ima doing(1212) or (121 2) >.< btw thank's for all the help!without you i would still do just (1232) XD

[YourHowToDo]

@Soblast1

My best advice to you is break down the beats into sections, so make 121 32 a section, practice this section slowly until you perfect it, then add a section before or after it and perform those two sections together, this way you will perfect each beat as a whole, hope this helps :)

[Soblast1]

@YourHowToDo I tought about doing this but when i try to do it slow my muscles idk why is like crazy i mean it auto block's it self..maybe i shelll take an brake and practice tommorow at school XD anyway thank you ALOT for thos vid's! you are helping me so much! thank you again!

[YourHowToDo]

@Soblast1

Glad to help, if you have anymore problems, don't be afraid to ask :)

[wee1owen12]

@YourHowToDo Hi, this is my first time trying Pen Beats, but I just can't seem to do it all the time, and I think it's how I hold the pen. Is there a certain way or am I just clumsy, because I can get the beat right, just not connect the pen to the table enough at 3.

[YourHowToDo]

@wee1owen12

Hey, I hold the pen with my thumb, index and middle finger, and it works best for me, try this out and start slow, you'll eventually be able to do it quickly :)

[wee1owen12]

@ YourHowToDo Ok, cheers pal, I'll try it!

[Soblast1]

i do it like the first time (123 22 132) but when i am doing it again i get lost at (22) cuz instead of them i make (11) anyone?

[coolcane1213]

soooo addictive :D

[silverros]

These people make youtube awesome.

[bushsucks1985]

im on intermediate ive got down all except 4 and 1

[YourHowToDo]

@bushsucks1985

Keep it up :)

[oommaaiiirr]

When you do a Hi-Tap, how many fingers are you holding the pen from?

[YourHowToDo]

@oommaaiiirr

I use my thumb, index and middle finger :)

[jordytalker13]

@YourHowToDo you can use two fingers but as long as it makes a good sound i personally dont care how many fingers

[Minecraftrollcoaster]

First try, 10 minutes and I am intermediate at the first beat! This is a motivating hobby because its easy at first.

[TheFelix204]

Does it really matter what type of pen i use? pls reply as i am desprate to learn!!!

[YourHowToDo]

@TheFelix204

It doesn't really matter, use a pen or pencil that makes the best sound for you, I prefer Bic pens or Sharpie markers, hope this helps :)

[MegaAnonymous2011]

its very hard for me to play cuz my pinky is broken or hurt i think cuz its been purple for a week now.

[ShowTime4232]
