  • @SaysNapoleon He looks like Nick Swardson :-)

  • great lesson. surely, Jared should continue making these drum lesson videos

  • I use a 22" bass drum and I've used your tips from this video but it still seems to have too much tone. Are there any other tips you could give me??

  • Great tips. I agree that it is an opportune time to polish the drum. It is also a great time to check see if the lugs, leg and rack tom support hardware is all tight, especially if it is a vintage or newly purchased used kit.

  • That is a cool bass drum sound. Personally I think the dampening is overkill. What I would do with those heads is remove the sheets and turn the Pillow the other way around so it rests against the resonant head, as the EQ ring on the EMAD will take care of any unwanted overtones, but give the drum some tone behind the thud. Mind you maybe Jared's coming fromn a studio perspective where I am rather unexperienced.

  • whats the song at 5:54?

  • why would u use a kick drum for orchestra music?

  • can you put different brand drum heads on different brand drums? i have peavy and i really like the way them sound!! and would it change the sound by having different drum brand?? well a whole lot. (or is it mainly the heads)

  • I have a question.  Do you, Jared Falk, REALLY like turtles???
