    Holy shit thank you so much! I've been trying to understand and learn double strokes for months actively training and just failing without progress. I've been going insane on this. Your first step of feeling the bounces and stopping/catching the second bounce FINALLY did the trick for me! I swear noone else I could find not even my drum teacher irl knew or taught this. All advice is on perfecting it, equal volumes, but not how you even get there first. Thank you so much!

    One thing thats really helped me get consistent powerful doubles especially on the kit is incorporating a push pull technique. So i would recommend practicing with your fingers for doubles like normal but also practicing using a deliberate push pull as well. You can kinda think of push pull as an exaggerated double with your fingers. They can be done very fast with practice and they offer more precise control over each stroke IMO compared to a typical double. Push pull is great for drags/ghost note doubles.

    • @rqdrums
      @rqdrums  5 місяців тому +1

      I actually learned doubles initially with only using a push pull technique and it's a very useful technique for sure. I just think they're harder to get really consistent if you rely on push pull too much. Most classical snare drummers never use that method and they have some of the cleanest doubles around. But if that's what works for you keep it up! Everything is worth exploring

    • @michaelinglis567
      @michaelinglis567 5 місяців тому +1

      @@rqdrums Let me qualify fy this statement by saying I'm primarily a guitar player so I could absolutely be wrong. I found that practicing extremely exaggerated full stroke push pull doubles helped with the consistency part. But you likely already did that as well and still came to the conclusion that you did. But I absolutely agree with you, Ive found with guitar and drumming that the more techniques you not only know but can play fluidly the better your playing as a whole will be. I'll take this as a sign from the universe to beef up my traditional doubles and try to rely a little less heavily on push pull and moeller doubles. Thanks for the insight!

    • @michaelinglis567
      @michaelinglis567 5 місяців тому +1

      @@rqdrums Well I found this surprising and interesting. I was doing my practice on the kit just now and I actually stoped to think about what my hands were doing. And I realized I've subconsciously combined the push pull technique with the regular finger and wrist doubles. In other words they all fluidly interchange depending on what is nessesary for the grove. Sometimes it's full push pull and other times it's full finger controlled or wrist controlled doubles. But the cool part is the in-between of those. Ive got it worked out where there is just the tiniest bit of push pull because my hands are accustomed to that and can very quickly transition in and out of doubles that way. So it's like a very scaled down push pull with much more control of each hit/stroke. I remember trying to learn doubles as a beginner and they felt much clunkier and slow so I think I can stand by my initial comment that, for me at least, learning push/pull technique and getting very good at it significantly helped my regular doubles as well. So it's not limited to just the typical push pull stroke most people associate with the technique (very quick but with little power). For me getting the dropping motion of the "push" down really well has helped with all my doubles. Just like how we are taught the three main stickings as beginners then quickly learn to move between them fluidly depending on what the situation calls for.

    • @rqdrums
      @rqdrums  11 місяців тому +7

      Yeah that happens a lot. I'd recommend spending some time just trying to play those rebound stokes to get the feel of keeping it loose at the fulcrum for a few minutes every time you warm up. Then with time you'll start to adapt your grip. But I feel like I'm pinching once I get to a tempo where I'm hitting my max speed too. So it's probably bound to happen at some point!

    Working doubles this past month I can let the stick rebound then squeeze on the 2nd stroke for a smooth sound.
    Trying to play fast it sounds like:
    Bah bah….bah bah instead of bah bah bah bah lol
    I think it’s sometimes compared to a gallop. It doesn’t sound smooth

    • @rqdrums
      @rqdrums  4 місяці тому

      Yeah it's really tough to get used to and we all start where you're at. I think focusing on getting that second stroke in rhythm helps a lot. Also reviewing the part in the video where you just let the stick bounce gently will help you really get the feel of the rebound (at around 0:50). Since it's such a small thing to get the hang of, it takes some time. Just try to work on it a bit regularly and it'll get better!

      It's pretty tricky to say without being able to actually see how you're playing exactly but I don't think there's really a quick fix necessarily. I'm currently working on my left hand quite a bit and what helps me is just making sure I spend 5-15 min at least really focusing on exactly how I'm playing with my left hand. Making sure you're taking advantage of any rebound you can get and getting the sticks to bounce straight will help loads. It just takes time though. If you work on it consistently within a month or so you'll definitely get better. Just gotta stick with it!

You can experiment with different strokes but I think generally it just comes down to how much you practice them.

      A drum roll is different from a double stroke roll. A drum roll is normally referred to as either a buzz roll, multiple bounce roll, or orchestral roll. In those rolls you cannot hear the individual strokes and it becomes a solid stream of sound. So you can look up videos on those if that's what you're looking for. In a double stroke roll you can hear the RRLL clearly and they're played like that intentionally.

Especially on the drumeo video the guy was talking about accenting the second stroke so that you do not loose power on the second one. Then I saw someone recommending push and pull for doubles and showing exactly one of the exercises you show as the beginning while learning that technic.

Aren't you pushing anyways when you are playing because gravity alone does not create enough speed to create the first stroke after certain speed...

There's a whole bunch of different ways of playing doubles but experimenting with different techniques and exercises will get you closer to the sound and feel you're looking for. It sounds like you're getting caught up in how many different ways there are to play them but just focus on one at a time or whatever makes the most sense for you. Taking a lesson with someone in person would probably help as well. Hope that helps!

      Not totally sure what you mean by that. I didn't take anything I said from a specific source really. Especially not from a book or a video in particular. My biggest influence for playing doubles like this is probably Brian Thurgood who is the drum teacher at MacEwan college in Edmonton as well as the percussionist for the Edmonton Symphony. Next after that would be my teachers from the University of North Texas. I studied drum set with Ed Soph for 3.5 years but we didn't really work on snare technique. I took snare lessons there with Paul Rennick (rudimental snare) and Christopher Deane (classical).

      Sources for roll rudiments? Are you honestly telling this guy to credit the Swiss military from the 1300s?

      first, I want to thank you for sharing. My comment was not meant to be disrespectful. Doubles in my experience are the most difficult to master. This information is appreciated. I believe it is important to share where and and from whom the knowledge was attained.. so much info out there. it is nice to know the source.thank you. impressive list!.@@rqdrums

      Seriously. This comment is the definition of what’s wrong with the comment section these days lol. Absurd. Dude didn’t say or share anything that hasn’t been in circulation for centuries and is standard info to teach in a drum lesson. Nothing of the copyright sort in here. He’s stealing nothing from no one, but rather, is gifting and sharing useful knowledge to others! Isn’t that what youtube is all about?! lol.

    Please, you are moving your arms for each stroke. If you do YT video’s where you want to act like a know it all, do your research and about 5 years of practice before sit in front off a camera again.

      Thanks for the comment! I'm all for some constructive criticism but personally I don't think it really matters what you do with your arms if it sounds even. It's always nice when someone makes comments like yours when they have posted zero videos.

      You have essentially put your poor abilities on the equivalent of a billboard for every one to see. YT is not a club, it’s a weird type of public square. I can comment however I want and right now, I’m sick of seeing videos that are misinformed.
      Wrist turn for singles and wrist turn for doubles.
      Wrist Turn, that’s what it’s called to move the wrist and gain a rebound for the second tap resulting in doubles, later, after this is wrist turn is consistent, then one can lift the arm to do crescendo rolls. Watch Buddy Rich or Tony Williams. Learning to do double first without moving one’s arms is fundamental to drumming.
