[bobkats]

I love the hat

[vtmike13]

glad to see there is at least one other drummer out there who plays worship music like me.

good stuff!

[SEPTICSOUNDS13]

i make all my demo's with "cracky metal kit". if you like metal check them out!

[rhythmantic]

@boredpersonthingy No, I haven't, will have to check it out, thanks for the tip.

[rhythmantic]

@boredpersonthingy In drumming there are many approaches to the same rhythm while maintaining the correct feel for the song. What I'm playing in that part is not your average drum pattern, it's something I learned from the great drummer Steve Gadd. I've seen Neil Peart play a something similar in Subdivisions. It's not common. In church I've never seen the other 3 drummers or any other church drummer use that pattern.

[powera12]

hi!

could you tell me what is the style using the hi hat at the first verses called? i cant find the name of it.,..

[rhythmantic]

@powera12 Those are alternating single note 16th notes.

[srichdsn]

Very helpful cover. Thanks for showing how it's done.

[rhythmantic]

@srichdsn Wonderful! Yours is the kind of comment I like to see. It's gratifying that my videos serve others as tutorials, especially in church.

[stikkman61]

Another techno question for you: always been interested in expanding the sound library on my V-kit. I have a TD-20 module myself and LOVE the VX kits but have been interested in expanding to VST libraries like DKFH, Addictive Drums and now the Steven Slate package - his kits sound amazing in your vids! So for VST playback, does that require a dedicated PC to play thru your V-Kit or can you load the samples onto a CF card and play locally via the TD-20 module like the VX kits do?

[rhythmantic]

@stikkman61 Unfortunately no, CF card access. The sampled software is triggered by the Roland module through a MIDI interface going USB to a computer (MacBook Pro). Superior has it's own app (Toontrack Solo), as does Steven Slate (Kontakt Player 4). Addictive Drums uses the host software such as Logic Pro or Garage Band. Hope this helps. Feel free to ask any further questions, I like to share.

[stikkman61]

Another fine performance sir! Love the busy left hand work on the hat - really spices up the groove! Curious if you've updated your TD-20 sound module w/ the TDW-20 card yet? If so, have you found it a worthy upgrade? In addition to the sound and cymbal response improvements, I'm most interested in the ability to keep more than 50 kits resident in the brain - thoughts?

[rhythmantic]

@stikkman61 Yes, it's worth upgrading for all the reasons you stated. You could store 100 kits, there are more snares, kicks, toms, cymbals, etc. and mixing/editing capabilities. Go for it & upgrade and after you do invest in some VExpressions kits, very inexpensive.

[MrNightshadow95]

Great Song man i like those fills man great job with the cover!

[rhythmantic]

@MrNightshadow95 well thank you very much for your encouraging comments. I appreciate you taking the time to comment. I play this song in our church services quite often & I thought it be time to cover it.

[MrNightshadow95]

@rhythmantic yeah ut us very good i'm auditioning for drums at my church and this is the song that i;m doing thanks this will help me alot!

[rhythmantic]

@MrNightshadow95 that's great. hope you pass the audition.

[jwatanabe90]

Ahhh a good old Tomlin song, great cover! Got some nice grooves going.

[rhythmantic]

@jwatanabe90 thank you my friend.

[guitardds]

Awesome man, again. You inspire me.

[rhythmantic]

@guitardds That's so good to hear especially after I've been checking out a bunch of great drummers on You Tube covering Rush/Neal Peart. thanks so much for listening and commenting.

[Virhali]

Great video! But what about cymbals? I can't hear them. Probably they have to be louder ;)

[rhythmantic]

@Virhali I can hear the cymbals even at my age (high freq range is the first to go). The cymbals volume is balanced with the rest of the kit, though on the whole this is not a high volume mix like some of my other videos. Thanks for checking it out & commenting. Keep playing guitar & posting, you are very good.

[Virhali]

@rhythmantic Yeah, I know ;) But like to me the whould be a little bit louder, especially hi-hat, but it's only my subjective opinion ;)

[rhythmantic]

@Virhali Yea, I hear you. i sometimes balance my sound to well with the recording as I've noticed on some of my vids and so the hihats & cymbals don't stand out as well as say the snare. thanks for the tip, appreciate it.
