Bass drum/Kick Pedal Tom (Tom 1, Tom 2) Played with a kick pedal, it’s the largest drum in the kit. These are usually mounted above the bass drum. * Use a commercially available kick pedal. Floor tom (Tom 3) Snare drum Sometimes called a bass tom, it either stands on its own legs The snare drum is the main “voice” of a drum kit. or is mounted on a stand. Hi-hat/Hi-hat pedal Ride cymbal An acoustic hi-hat uses 2 cymbals mounted on a hi-hat Usually mounted on the right side of the drum kit, the ride stand. Pressing the hi-hat pedal opens and closes it. cymbal is principle elements in keeping time. * TD-07KV (example) uses a single pad. Crash cymbal Smaller than the ride, the crash cymbal is mainly used for accents. * In the TD-07KV (example), this is the same size as the ride. Acoustic drum V-drums (example: TD-07KV) Crash Ride Crash Tom Hi-hat Hi-hat Ride Tom 1 Tom 2 Snare Floor tom Drum sound Snare Tom 3 module Kick (Bass drum) Hi-hat pedal Hi-hat pedal Kick pedal Bass drum Kick pedal 2 Let’s Learn About Drums The Basics of Playing Drums are played using both hands and both feet. Here we explain how to hold the sticks, strike the drums, and use the pedal. Holding the sticks Using the snare The most common way to hold the sticks is called the Head shot “matched grip” as shown in the illustrations below. Hit only the head of the pad. This is the most common method to play the snare. Left hand Right hand Rim shot Strike the head and the rim of the pad simultaneously. A sound (rim sound) different than the head shot will be heard. Rim Using the kick pedal The kick pedal can be pressed in either of two ways: “heel Cross stick up” or “heel down.” Only strike the rim of the pad. Heel up Velocity switching “snare rim” sound, played softly produces a cross stick sound, and when played harder, produces a rim In this method, your heel floats above the pedal. With your shot sound. heel off the pedal, lower your entire foot to push down the pedal. This method applies the full weight of your leg to the pedal, making it easier for you to produce a stronger sounds than the heel down method. This is often used in rock and pop. Rim Rim & When playing cross stick, set XStickSens (p. 19) to anything Heel down other than “OFF.” In this method, the entire bottom of your foot from heel to toe stays in contact with the pedal. Use your ankle joint to * To play the cross stick, be sure that you only strike the rim make your toes push down the pedal. of the pad. If you're resting your hand on the head, cross stick playing technique might not be possible. This method allows more precise control of the volume, and is often used in jazz and bossa nova. * This is effective only for a pad that is connected to the “SN” connector of the dedicated connection cable. * On some snare sounds, it might not be possible to play separate sounds in this way. 3 Let’s Learn About Drums Using the cymbals Using the hi-hat Bow shot In an acoustic drum set, the hi-hat consists of two cymbals placed facing each other vertically on a hi-hat stand. When The most common method, playing the middle area of the you press the pedal, the two cymbals will come together cymbal. (closed). When you release the pedal, the two cymbals will separate (opened). Closed With the hi-hat pedal pressed firmly, strike the pad with a stick. A short “chick” sound will be heard. Edge shot Use the shoulder of the stick to hit the edge of the cymbal pad (Hit the edge sensor position as shown in the illustration). Half-open With the hi-hat pedal pressed gently, strike the pad with a stick. A slightly longer “swish” sound will be heard. Open With the hi-hat pedal completely released, strike the pad Edge sensor with a stick. An even longer “sound” than the half-open sound will be heard. * Bow shots and edge shots can also be played on the hi-hat. Bell Shot (ride only) This playing method involves striking the bell of the cymbal. * Use a pad that supports the ride three-way trigger. Foot closed * Set the CR2Usage setting (p. 20) to “RDB.” Just press the pedal without using a stick. This sound will be * Strike the bell somewhat strongly with the shoulder of the softer and shorter than the closed sound played with a stick. stick. Useful for keeping time with this tight sound. Foot splash Press and immediately release the pedal without using a Choking a cymbal stick. This is equivalent to momentarily clashing the two Choking (pinching) the cymbal’s edge with the hand cymbals of an acoustic hi-hat. It produces a “splash” sound immediately after hitting the cymbal will mute or choke the that is softer than the open strike. sound, just like with a real cymbal. * The Choke function only works when you grasp in the area (where the edge sensor is) as shown in the illustration.

  • Brief History of Electronic and Computer Musical Instruments
    Brief History of Electronic and Computer Musical Instruments Roman Kogan April 15th, 2008 1 Theremin: the birth of electronic music It is impossible to speak of electronic music and not speak of Theremin (remember that high-pitch melody sound sound in Good Vibrations ?) Theremin was the instrument that has started it all. Invented remarkably early - around 1917 - in Russia by Leon Termen (or Theremin, spelling varies) it was the first practical (and portable) electronic music instrument, and also the one that brought the electronic sound to the masses (see [27]). It was preceded by Thelarmonium, a multi-ton monstrocity that never really get a lot of attention (although technically very innovative, see [25]), and some other instruments that fell into obscurity. On the other hand, Leon Theremin got popular well beyond the Soviet Union (where even Lenin got to play his instrument once!). He became a star in the US and taught a generation of Theremin players, Clara Rockmore being the most famous one. In fact, RCA even manufactured Theremins under Leon's design in 1929 ( [27])!. So what was this instrument ? It was a box with two antennas that produced continuous, high-pitch sounds. The performer would approach the instrument and wave hands around the antennas to play it. The distance to the right (vertical) antenna would change the pitch, while the distance to the left (horizontal) antenna would change the volume of the sound (see [2], [3] for more technical details). The Theremin is difficult to play, since, like on violin, the notes and the volume are not quantized (the change in pitch is continuous).

  • Owner's Manual
    Owner’s Manual For the following languages, a PDF version of the Owner’s Manual can be found on the CD-ROM. Deutsch, Français, Italiano, Español, Português, Nederlands What is MIDI? MIDI is an internationally recognized standard for exchanging performance information between electronic musical instruments and computers. For example, in the illustration below, a MIDI signal meaning “the ‘C’ key on the MIDI keyboard was pressed” passes through the A-49 and is received by the computer’s software sound module, and then the software sound module plays the note “C.” MIDI signal Information meaning “the ‘C’ key was pressed” “C” is played Software sound module “C” key is pressed In this way, MIDI is used to send performance information to other instruments; for example “the ‘C’ key was pressed with a certain amount of force,” “the instrument was changed to a violin sound,” “the volume was raised/lowered,” “the pitch was raised/lowered,” etc. In other words, MIDI is the “language of musical instruments.” MIDI signals are merely performance instructions, therefore a MIDI sound module, such as a software sound module, is required to produce sound. All software sound modules and DAW (Digital Audio Workstation) software support MIDI. MEMO DAW software is a term that refers to music production software. Note Do not connect the A-49 to the computer until the driver has been installed (p. 13). Before using this unit, carefully read the sections entitled:”USING THE UNIT SAFELY” (p. 3) and “IMPORTANT NOTES” (p. 4). These sections provide important information concerning the proper operation of the unit.

  • 5-Piece Junior Drum Kit Assembly Instruction
    5-Piece Junior Drum Kit Assembly Instruction Thank you for choosing this quality set from Cecilio. Use the instructions as a guide to help you assemble your new drum set. Please note that this manual is designed for a number of Cecilio drum sets. If you are unsure of what your drum set should be supplied with, please check with the Cecilio dealer you purchased the kit from. There are many parts that make up a drum set, but don’t worry, once you get started the process is very intuitive and fun. Bass Drum: 1. Lay the Bass drum Shell (A) on a flat surface with the front side up. You can identify the front side by the location of the Bass Drum leg mount (B). The leg mounts are closer to the front side of the bass drum (furthest from the playing position). 2. The “logo drumhead” should be fitted to the front of the bass drum and aligned straight. 3. Place the drum head (C) (same diameter as the drum) directly on the top of the drum shell followed by the hoop (D). 4. Gently hang the claws (E) over the edge of the hoop, and line them up with the lugs. Take the longest ten- sion screws (aka T-Rods), slip a washer on each, and insert them through the holes in the claws. 5. Tighten the screws into the lugs using your fingers two at a time, just enough so the hoops are secure, and no wrinkles are in the head. 6. Now you may use a drum key (F) to tighten the tension bolts in equal amounts (1 quarter turn each for example) until pitch and tone of the drum begin to sound.

  • Make It Happen
    Make it Happen 1 Volume, 1 DVD 2 printed scores by Enrico Bertelli PhD Music University of York September 2012 Y3479621 PhD Enrico Bertelli Abstract Works for percussion are often neglected and underperformed because of instrumental unavailabil- ity, logistic limitations and notation issues. This research addresses these problems by delivering eight self-contained, adaptable and transportable multipercussion-based projects. The first three works solve these problems by using found objects, body percussion and imaginary instruments, revolving around the concept of interchangeable, if not transportable, instrumentation. The fol- lowing two projects look at the snare drum as a harmonious box (a resonant body), augmenting its timbre with extended techniques - such as mallets and hybrid hand/stick techniques- and live electronics. The audio processing starts with short and crisp sounds and looks at ways to gen- erate pitch via resonators, and how to control length with reverb. The remaining three projects focus exclusively on MIDI percussion, filling a wide gap in the repertory. These are the first works composed with this instrument in mind and not as a transcription or as a substitute for more common instruments. They cover, respectively, the areas of sampling, automated pitch randomizers and live MIDI scaling and shaping. Furthermore, the max4live MIDI patches serve as a link between the pitched and unpitched percussion, empowering the drum kit with harmonic and melodic controls. All the projects are designed to solve logistic problems and are developed as concerts-in-a-suitcase, a concept which is at the basis of my research Make it Happen. All the scores and types of notation put the performer’s needs first; this is why I produced performance editions, sometimes to the disadvantage of the original composition.
