Snare Drum Cross-Sticking - Drum Lessons

[modifiedralph]

Great illustration and explanation. Thanks!

[augie150]

And it took me a few minutes just to learn how to read drum sheet music and now i can play my favourite song on drums and guitar and bass and more thanks dude.

[augie150]

Would if i am playing a electric drumset, would i play a cross-sticking, probably not

[xWPxTugg]

@augie150 That's not true. Most electronic kits are capable of simulating rim shots and cross sticking just like any other kind of hit.

[Gr1zz3m]

@xWPxTugg

ive played on a 1500$ kit, and there are a few things i noticed:

1. its impossible to gravity blast

2. you can't do rim shots

3. the bell doesn't make noise

4. you can't choke the cymbal.

[RogerWijdeveld]

@Gr1zz3m Maybe because 1500$ isn't much for e-drums. Do you want a real good e-kit, you should buy the roland TD-20.. 6000$ :D, But you're right, xWPxTugg was wrong, and you're right ;)

[Gr1zz3m]

@RogerWijdeveld

Well, i'm poor as fuck XD

my set is a 500$ used Ludwig element series. with used sabian b8 cymbals and a dw7002 pedal.

My buddy has a 3000 tama set, and a 1500 electric set (he uses it for occasional techno beats)

[ACompetitiveHalo]

lol. 'so that you're holding. . . . . . the OPPOSITE end of the stick!' not to be rude, but there was a hilarious and unintentional dramatic pause there. Just makes me laugh. his slow speaking makes everything VERY understandable, but it makes him prone to looking a little bit like an overdramatic guy as well. :p

[littlemissattitude10]

i like the way he makes his "ck" noises like q, k, and c. but he's a good teacher so yeah(: haha

[TheMaddrummer123]

this guy teaches me the same stuff as my drum teacher

[martinwrang]

Great lesson! It really helped me getting my crosssticking sounds right. I hate the way he turns every 30 seconds to look into the other camera though..

[jakora3]

ohhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh so thats cros-sticking o:

[darthvaderroxs]

how do u record drum beats? when i do its all shitty

[Xyleera8]

@darthvaderroxs Do you have a bunch of mics or an area mic?

[stijnguitar1234]

is that thing a dr880 (dr rythim)

[ShaggyKiller]

im holding it exactly like he said, and i put the stick in the same place but it sounds rlly hallow, like barley any snare sound, just more like im hitting the rim.....any suggestions?

[skaterjohn117]

it might be your snares turn them on tighter

[MightyMerold]

@ShaggyKiller mabey tighten the snare chains?

[MarianMendoza15]

what kind of crash cymbal used in minute 4:49?

[jesusshank]

these vids are great! most of them are actually helpful. and the camera changes are hilarious every time. and the way he talks is funny. not too be mean

[rimriserusa]

The NEw way to play >> The RimRiser!!

[strethy]

i love this guy, begginers actually learn somethng from it unlike other vids .

[jaredpistoia]

What kind of drum heads and cymbals are on this set? anyone know?

[GishoDinev]

Why playing it with bottom side of the stick ? The front side is good for this as well.

[gtoband05]

it sounds much better this way

[DrummerInTheHead]

not true, play it where the stick reaches the thickest point at the top, gives the same sound

[JumpStop1]

you have to find the "sweet spot" of the stick, its very to-taste type of hit. it could be that its way up on the shaft or where it starts to thicken.

[0athos0]

quite helpful. thanks guys

[jkfar12]

i bet he's christian

[ilovevampsandzombies]

[undeathcrackhead]

groove maschine

[roki92]

lol!!

[iLoveJerryHsu]

he moves like a sloth.

[thepossessor]

it doesn't necessarily have to be the but end of the stick to cross stick

[NDP313]

i have the three toms and the bass and a snare what else do i need besides the hi hat?

[chiefie92]

depends what you play like an what you want to do...if u wanna have a big kit buy loads of random crap that in time ul realise you dont need...you can get by using a snare, bass, floor tom + 1 rack toms, hi-hats, 1 or 2 crashes, and a ride...its what you feel best using..i dunno, im self taught..i build on stuff by watching drummers like these guys...an i play better on a better kit, where i have confidence in the kit not always bigger, depends where + what im playin your kit is a persnal thing

[thepossessor]

you need a crash cymbol and ride cymbol

[jkfar12]

rhythm
