There is no one ideal microphone to use on any particular instrument. There is also no one ideal way to place a microphone. Place the microphone to get the sound you want. However, the desired sound can often be achieved more quickly and consistently by understanding basic microphone characteristics, sound-radiation properties of musical instruments, and acoustic fundamentals. Here are some suggestions to follow when miking musical instruments for sound reinforcement. • Try to get the sound source (instrument, voice, or amplifier) to sound good acoustically (“live”) before miking it. • Use a microphone with a frequency response that is limited to the frequency range of the instrument, if possible, or filter out frequencies below the lowest fundamental frequency of the instrument. • To determine a good starting microphone position, try closing one ear with your finger. Listen to the sound source with the other ear and move around until you find a spot that sounds good. Put the microphone there.

  • Stylistic Evolution of Jazz Drummer Ed Blackwell: the Cultural Intersection of New Orleans and West Africa
    STYLISTIC EVOLUTION OF JAZZ DRUMMER ED BLACKWELL: THE CULTURAL INTERSECTION OF NEW ORLEANS AND WEST AFRICA David J. Schmalenberger Research Project submitted to the College of Creative Arts at West Virginia University in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Musical Arts in Percussion/World Music Philip Faini, Chair Russell Dean, Ph.D. David Taddie, Ph.D. Christopher Wilkinson, Ph.D. Paschal Younge, Ed.D. Division of Music Morgantown, West Virginia 2000 Keywords: Jazz, Drumset, Blackwell, New Orleans Copyright 2000 David J. Schmalenberger ABSTRACT Stylistic Evolution of Jazz Drummer Ed Blackwell: The Cultural Intersection of New Orleans and West Africa David J. Schmalenberger The two primary functions of a jazz drummer are to maintain a consistent pulse and to support the soloists within the musical group. Throughout the twentieth century, jazz drummers have found creative ways to fulfill or challenge these roles. In the case of Bebop, for example, pioneers Kenny Clarke and Max Roach forged a new drumming style in the 1940’s that was markedly more independent technically, as well as more lyrical in both time-keeping and soloing. The stylistic innovations of Clarke and Roach also helped foster a new attitude: the acceptance of drummers as thoughtful, sensitive musical artists. These developments paved the way for the next generation of jazz drummers, one that would further challenge conventional musical roles in the post-Hard Bop era. One of Max Roach’s most faithful disciples was the New Orleans-born drummer Edward Joseph “Boogie” Blackwell (1929-1992). Ed Blackwell’s playing style at the beginning of his career in the late 1940’s was predominantly influenced by Bebop and the drumming vocabulary of Max Roach.

  • Choosing a Drum Set for Worship
    Choosing a Drum Set for Worship We hope this guide will help you find the right drum set and drum hardware that fits your playing style and needs. Whether it is an affordable starter set or a sophisticated, arena-worthy acoustic or electronic kit, this guide will help you identify the right combination of gear to match your budget and percussion skills. You will learn about the elements that go into making drums and cymbals, and what to consider when shopping for drums. Before choosing a drum set, you need to be familiar with the components that go into it, these include: The Snare Drum, the Bass Drum, one or more Mounted Toms and a Floor Tom. The two other essential components that complete a full drum set, Cymbals and Hardware. We have also included a section on how to reduce acoustic drum volume, a microphone alternative, and a section on electronic drums. If you are unfamiliar with any of the terms used here, please see the Glossary of Terms at the end of this document. Enjoy! Parts of the Drum Set ANATOMY OF A DRUM TOP (BATTER) HEAD: The most basic component of a drum, the head is a round membrane made of a synthetic material usually mylar, that is stretched across the shell, with varying degrees of tension. HOOP: The drum hoop is usually made of either cast or stamped metal, although some drummers prefer wood hoops. Hoops are constructed with a flange shaped to hold the head on the shell for tensioning. TENSION ROD: These mount through holes in the hoop and thread into the lug to maintain the desired tension.

  • Classic Maple Quick Pick Pogram
    Classic Maple Quick Pick Pogram Made in the U.S.A. • Monroe, NC Join the Family Looking back at over a century of Ludwig Percussion, the word “Family” continues to fnd its way into how we defne who we are as a company. It’s certainly no secret that we bolster a rich history, originated by William F. and Theobald Ludwig in 1909. These pioneers laid a solid foundation for drummers and percussionists, creating instruments for the needs of generations of players. That tradition continued with William F. Ludwig II (or “The Chief” as he has come to be known). The Chief’s dedication to the Ludwig legacy went way beyond his name. It was his dedication to everyone from the artisans at the Ludwig factory, to the drummers who played his creations that established the feeling of a true Family. From Damen Avenue in Chicago to our current facility in Monroe, NC. The Ludwig Family continues on in its founder’s tradition as a notable American manufacturer. As dedicated as we are to the legacy we preserve, it is the dedication of today’s Ludwig Drummer that inspires us to surpass the standards established by The Chief. Our focus is to educate and inspire a new generation of Ludwig Drummers, and offer an inside look at the care and craftsmanship our artisans put into each product that bears our name. Combining a process for crafting percussion instruments that has been refned over a century with today’s most advanced technologies, we proudly invite you to join our family and be a vital part of the legacy that is “The Most Famous Name in Drums”.
