This product is an innovative drum machine with the following features and functions. Introduction • The RhythmTrak •••234 plays versatile backing patterns using three different drum tracks and one bass track. 99 preset patterns provide many popular rhythms at the touch of a key. 99 additional patterns can be programmed and stored by the user. • Program up to 255 patterns in a sequence to create the backing for an entire song. Up to 99 songs can be stored. • Choose from a variety of 174 built-in super-realistic drum and bass sounds. Practice or perform on stage as if with a whole band. Great for making guitar or keyboard demo tapes, too. • LINE IN jack allows connection of external instruments. Mix the sound from an instrument, processed by a multi-effect such as the ZOOM 503, with the backing sound provided by the RhythmTrak •••234. • Simple and intuitive controls make it a snap to operate the RhythmTrak •••234, even if you have never used a drum machine or sequencer before. • Groove play mode allows changing patterns during play simply by tapping pads on the unit. Great for live performances and for DJ use. • Parameters such as pitch, volume, or tone can be modified manually during a performance, using a handy slider control. • Optional foot pedal FP01 can continuously alter pitch, volume, or tone. • Optional foot switch FS01 can serve for example to control the bass drum by foot or to change between open hi-hat and closed hi-hat. • MIDI IN connector allows synchronization with an external MIDI sequencer or control of the RhythmTrak •••234 from other MIDI equipment. Please take the time to read this manual carefully so as to get the most out of your RhythmTrak •••234 and to ensure optimum performance and reliability.

  • 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.

Reason Drum Kits Introduction The Reason Drum Kits instrument is a Rack Extension version of the mighty popular Reason Drum Kits ReFill. Anyone with experience in professional studio work will tell you that recording drums is the most difficult and demanding part of any project. Hands down. Drum recording is a craft which takes decades to learn, yet never gets any easier. It's exhausting. It's expensive. It can make or break an entire production. Due to these challenging demands, the means for capturing the ultimate drum sound have always been out of reach for everyone except those who never get cold sweats from the tick tock of the studio clock. Until now. We took care of the hard part, and the result is Reason Drum Kits - a powerful and versatile drum tool that tears down the last barrier between the virtual studio workspace and the real drum recording studio, and closes the quality gap between “merely” professional and world class! Be the drummer - and the engineer! Traditionally, the structure of computer based drum tools has been dictated by the anatomy of the drum kit.

  • The Pitched Human Drum
    Building BlockBlockssss Exercise The Pitched HHumanuman DDrumrumrumrum KKKitKititit Building Pulse, Rhythm, tempo, blocks Pitch is applicable to percussive as well as melodic instruments. The percussion family can be divided into tuned and un-tuned instruments. Key subject knowledge Many percussion instruments produce an indefinite sound. This means that they produce uneven, irregular vibrations when they are played, unlike tuned instruments whose vibrations when played are regular, resulting in a determinable sound • To work collectively as a unit • To focus on creating a solid pulse Aims • To understand that everyone is responsible for keeping time • To use the body to create different pitched sounds • To learn some featured drum patterns Pupils in a circle Set up If you have any percussion instruments to hand for the drum patterns this would also be fun eg cow bells, African drums etc. Description Exercise 1 How can we create different pitched sounds using our bodies? High (whistles, clicks), Middle (claps, taps), Low (chest area). Exercise 2 Human drum kit – create a drum kit using different body parts for each part of the kit. STEP 1 Introduce the different parts of a drum kit using pictures (Instrument Families resource), video, or (ideally) an actual kit. Make sure pupils are familiar with the names of the bass drum, snare, high hat and cymbal. STEP 2 Pupils stand in a circle; teacher/Musicat to establish a steady pulse. Use a metronome if necessary (good idea). Don’t let it speed up! STEP 3 Create a bass drum sound by gently hitting chest area to produce a low-pitched sound.
