  • In this video we crack the tuplets problem.
    Quintuplets, Sextuplets and Septuplets are difficult to manage but with this specific practice exercises you can probably master them.
    Tuples are very much used in cadenzas and improvisation parts turned written music. From piano and orchestra concerts to electric guitar solos you will need to learn them sooner or later.

    Fun fact a great way you can learn how to count these rhythms is to take a couple hours and deep dive into an old Indian counting technique called konnokol. I struggled so much with this type of reading and playing for a long time and I picked up konnokol and the amount of ideas I can come up with on the fly when I play at gigs and practices is CRAZY!! It also really helps you pickup odd and crazy time signatures a lot easier. This technique will show you a whole new world with your playing and concept of time.
    Also I played through all ten with ease. Please post a harder one I love these!!!!!

      @ricklang_drummer 3 роки тому +1

      True. Konnakol is helpful. Haven't delved deep into it myself yet, but aquaintances have. As long as one also remembers to not solely count the groups of 5s, 7s, or 9s, and applying them over 16ths (i.e. just "odd groupings), but also play chosen groupings in all subdivisions. A grouping of 5 as septuplets, a grouping of 9 as quintuplets etc. As a drummer I still struggle with undecuplet and/or tredecuplets. Luckily they don't pop up too frequently.

  • @Merlyno99
    @Merlyno99 4 роки тому +49

    I really suggest adding a constant metronome so that you can understand how difficuly rithmic patterns relate to the beat
    f.e. on lvl 6 it's difficult to hear the beat of the odd groupings like 6tuplets and 7tuplets against the beat of the 4/4
    btw great exercises!

      I don't understand how to learn the 4th note tuplets of the level 6. For the eight note I learned with counting (1 and 2 and 3, for 5tuplet for example) but I don't see how to do that with 4th note, isn't it more like a polyrythm?

    By actually listening to the tuplets and DOING them It made it a million times easier and quicker to actually understand them than having someone waffling on and trying to explain them verbally or even worse reading lengthy explanations. I guess its down to different learning styles but I understand musical sound through sound better rather than intellectual verbal explanations.

      This triplet divides a quarter note into 3 eight notes. Additionaly the second and third note got divided into sixteenth notes. There are still 3 exactly same groupings in the triplet but two of them are separated even more.

    These exercises are fine, but personally without a explanation of the division it just appears as taps in which I am just counting really fast sometimes and then on tempo other times. It can be frustrating to just hear taps over and over without an accompanying explanation about why those taps go there especially

    • @gradyking4739
      @gradyking4739 4 роки тому

      There’s no way to count quintuplets or septuplets, it’s just a quarter note split into 5 or 7 equal sections. We just have to learn them, that’s all.

    • @simcho9377
      @simcho9377 4 роки тому

      Grady King in level 6 it goes into quarter note 5s and 7s. The “right” way would be to think sixteenth note 5s/7s and then accent every fourth one, but at a certain tempo that becomes very difficult.

      Check out Anika on Drumeo, she's the master of the 5tuplet. She has a way to count it that I like. Or use words like un-i-ver-si-ty (5 syllables) to count that 10tuplet you talked about.

    • @brandonwootton5575
      @brandonwootton5575 4 роки тому +1

      The way I internalized 7s is to subdivide the pulse into 8 16th notes and from there 7s are just a tiny bit slower. Eventually you’ll internalize it. And if you’re having a hard time counting its a lot easier to count every other beat (1 2 3 41 2 3 41...) but eventually you want to be able to feel it without counting

    • @Booskop.
      @Booskop. 3 роки тому

      I didn't properly learn septuplets yet, but as a general rule, what works best for me is this:
      Play an evenly spaced alternating LRLR pattern.
      Accent every first note. So - if you're learning quintuplets, play: 𝑹LRLR𝑳RLRL.
      And if you're learning septuplets, play: 𝑹LRLRLR𝑳RLRLRL.
      Since you already started out with evenly spaced notes, there's no need to "guesstimate" where the note should go.
      Now, the last step is the hardest, but the most important one.
      Count only the accents. 1 LRLRLR 2 RLRLRL 3 LRLRLR 4 RLRLRL 1
      This will make you "feel" the rhythm of the quintuplets, and hopefully septuplets.
      I've got the quintuplet feel down quite quickly, but I haven't really put in the time on septuplets myself.
      If you do it this way, you should end up with perfectly evenly spaced notes on your odd divisions.
