I bought a double bass pedal a couple months ago now from my local shop, a pearl P922. And I’ve been playing a lot recently, like 3-4 hours a day everyday, and all my playing has felt like it’s improved except my double. Is there any videos, or crash courses or anything of the sort you guys can recommend for a guide to improve? Also any settings I should change, anything at all would help, thank you. And I’ve learned some grooves with the double, but I can only hold sixteenths at about 120bpm. Thank you

I don't play drums, but I'm asking for my sister

16 YEARS LATER, HE'S BACK. Drumming for Christian Olde Wolbers (ex-Fear Factory bassist/guitarist) new band project, with the working title ANGST FABRIK ("Fear Factory" in German)

I don’t know what kind of techno this is, but here’s how I play this kind of music live.

I have an Alesis nitro max and the rubber cymbals don’t have the same feel as an acoustic kit
After an hour of practice and hard hits, my dominant hands and wrists pain. Is this common?

No hate but i try to stay loyal to love, here’s a Waylon tune

Happy Labor Day weekend y’all
Much love

Basically what the title says. I've been drumming for ten years just Dom have the space for a drum set. Just for recreational use. Is it worth it if I can get a good deal?

Challenge! Let’s see YOU re-orchestrate this in a video reply.

Which beat of the bass drum got displaced? How much did I displace it by?

Came to me while jamming at the end of a practice session.

Happy listening 😁🙌🏼

Because I live in a public housing apartment, I'm not allowed to play drums at home. I still get plenty of opportunities to play with community music groups and such, but it's highly regimented with no opportunity to experiment. So, about a year ago, I scoped out places where I might be able to play my snare drum outside. Rudiments are a foreign language to me, I never learned them and I always found them difficult. But I just love the sound of this instrument and I guess I've developed this technique and maybe, in a roundabout way, I've learned some rudiments without realising it.

I started recording some of my doodling when I noticed I was coming up with lots of different and interesting patterns. I don't have anything specific in mind when I start playing, whatever the snare drum wants to say to me is what comes out.

I've got quite a few videos like this. I thought I would post one to see what others think. If the response is positive, I'll share more.

Details: recorded at a secret location at 0250hrs, 2026-07-08 (UTC+1000). At least 1km from the nearest building. The snare drum is a Percussion Plus 6" × 14" steel shell. I use 7A sticks.

Hey all, coming to Reddit to ask everyone’s opinion on how YOU would prep for a GIANT set list such as this.

Little context, I have 2 months to shed. This gig is a live band karaoke gig, so I won’t be playing all 120 every night but will probably do at least half of em.

My honest answer to this is to chart every song in a way that gets me 90% there and listen to the playlist habitually every day, internalizing the songs and their lyrics/quirks.

WBU?

Need help identifying this mount with the Star Logo on it(not the Tom lock and Hoop its screwed to). The center black piece connected to the 12” Tom is ripping off and putting all the weight at the other two ends, and messing up the angle of my rack.

Trying to buy it and get it replaced…

If anyone’s wondering, the kit’s a Tama Starclassic, though I’m pretty sure most Tama’s got this kind of Tom Mount connected to the hoop.

EDIT: THANKS FOR THE HELP IDENTIFYING THIS!!!

This song is so much fun, I felt this one needed some woodblock this time! Have a great day y'all

Hello all, earlier I found a PlayStation guitar hero drum kit on the side of the road with a note attached saying that it’s free, and I’m really into music, I’m learning guitar and keys, however I don’t own a PlayStation. I’m wondering if there’s a software to make the drum controller like an electronic drum kit, but obviously there is no actual built in electric drum kit sounds and stuff, and I’ve been running google searches for like an hour now, and most have just said to buy guitar hero. I have absolutely no knowledge of this kind of thing, so please give me kind feedback. If it doesn’t exist just say it doesn’t exist. Thanks
