Drums #6: Name All The Parts Of The Drum Set
Вставка
- Опубліковано 6 лют 2018
- We've been trying to learn the fun stuff as much as possible, but it's time to get down to business again. Make sure to be informed about the terminology for the parts of your drums set so you can move forward.
My parents couldn't afford lessons, let alone a drum kit. You are right to the point with no yapping. That right there deserves a paycheck.
I feel you there! I started music playing trombone in school band because I didn't feel like I could ask my parents to shoulder the cost of me learning anything I actually wanted to do. My dad played trombone when he was younger, so we just had one stored away. Eventually I talked them into getting me a guitar, I taught myself for a few years, and I managed to study music at a state university on scholarships. Now I run a studio in northern California, and I make sure we both provide scholarships for locals and make free online resources for folks in similar situations to me when I was younger. Glad to help!
I haven't made much new material in a while since things have been so busy at the studio, but I'm hoping to get to it again later.
This is extremely helpful especially to the people who don’t know how to make drums in their own tab. Thank you so much!
Glad I could help. I haven't made any videos in the last few years since I've been busy teaching lessons. I'd like to make more in the future though. Feel free to leave questions or requests in the comments. :)
My only suggestion is that you should explain the china cymbal
@@Xv0dka1999X Ha, gotcha. Sorry, my kit doesn't have a china. The standard base set-up is always changing little by little, but I just focused on what's most common: hi-hats, crash, and ride. I briefly mentioned my splash since I had one on my kit, but that's generally considered more of a specialty cymbal. China cymbals are more of a specialty cymbal skewed towards use in different types of metal and hardcore drumming.
China cymbals are very distinct in sound, but they're mostly utilized like a crash cymbal. So they can be used for single hit accents or as a part of the drum set to ride on in particularly heavy music.
@@MTSstudiosmedia ah i see. Well thank u for this tutorial
I struggle programming drums and generally only make melodies, this is really helpful!
Glad to help! Feel free to leave any questions or requests as well. I've been too busy at the studio to make any new videos for the last few years, but I'd really like to resume at some point.
omg same😂😂
This is so useful. I need to know which drums/cymbals make what sound so I can find samples I can use. Thanks for this great, simple video!
Nice! Glad to help. Good luck getting into producing. 👍
I have played Guitar for many years. I played for a couple small Bands However, I wanted to learn drums to become a All- Around Player. thanks for the Lesson! cheers!
Glad to help! Feel free to leave a comment if you have any questions or requests. I haven't made too many videos over the last few years since I've been too busy at the studio, but I'd really like to resume at some point.
Thanks for your explanations, it helped me a great deal in remembering the parts of a drum for my coming Music exam.
Glad to help! I haven't had time to make new videos recently, but feel free to leave any questions or requests here too.
@@MTSstudiosmedia Thank you
IM HERE FOR MY MUSIC EXAM TOO LMAO
That was a solid brief. Thanks for the video.
For sure! Glad to help. 🙂
first of all it helped to me now thank you
Glad to help. 🙂
Thanks very much! I'm a solo artist who's working on a song focussed on the drums. This helps me to be able to communicate with the drummer I'm hiring and with my producer.
That's great! Glad I could help a little bit.
thank you for more information about parts of drumset
For sure! Glad it was helpful!
Thanks im making a short animation with a soundtrack
Nice. Very cool. Feel free to share when it's finished. 🙂
Great video, thanks for the explanation ^_^
Very helpful thank you so much 🤩
Glad to help! Feel free to leave any questions or requests. I've been too busy at the studio to make new videos for a while, but I'd really like to make some more at some point.
Intresting...❣️
Thanks a lot! ❤️
For sure! Glad to help. I've been too busy at the studio to make videos for a while, but I'd really like to do some more in the future some time. It's really cool to see people still using these.
God bless you, sir!
Glad to help. 🙂
Who is teaching and demonstrating drums? He sounds friendly.@@MTSstudiosmedia
@@jeromedavis8575 That was me in these tutorials. I introduce myself at the beginning of each series.

Also, you should consider doing ASMR with the drums, such as doing some tapping on them.
Who's the name of this guy playing drums and talking? Merry Christmas by the way!
Ty ty !
Glad to help. Feel free to leave any requests or questions if you want. I've been busy at the studio and haven't had a chance to make new videos in a while, but I always try to answer questions at least. I'm hoping to make some more new videos in the future as well.
yeah bro thanks
Dude appreciate this
Glad to help! I haven't got to make any new videos in a while since I've been pretty busy at the studio, but feel free to leave any questions or requests. At the very least I always try to answer questions in the comments. 👍
@@MTSstudiosmedia you're too nice man. Absolutely following
@@willcoffarchives Thanks! Much appreciated.
Amazing! Thank you, your video was so helpful
Glad to help! 🙂
Sooo gooood!!!! Thank U!!! Issit got splash?
Ha! Thanks for checking out the video. YUP 4:01.
Thank you very much. Great explanatory video .. unfortunately the instructor is facing away from the mic when affects the sound quality ...
Sorry about that. These were made pretty cheaply and quickly with only one camera and it's built in mic. I'd like to do a higher quality one for drums at some point. For our guitar videos we were able to make them turn out a little nicer.
I couldn't hear much of the information, can you please explain in the replies what each parts do again? I'm sorry in advance if it's too much trouble
Hi Juhin! （日本人ですか？もう10年前日本に住んでいました。その後行ったことないからまた行きたいな～と思います。）
Thanks for the message! The main point of this video is to just know the names of the parts of the drum set. If it's a little hard to hear or understand me, here's a chart that names everything:

Other than that I just give a little advice about using different cymbals or small things like that.
Thanks for watching! Feel free to reach out if you have any other questions.
Hi I would like to know what's that black part called, it's right between the plates on your left side
That's a cowbell. I only went over the most standard parts of the setup, but sometimes people may have additional pieces like a cowbell or a china cymbal or an additional floor tom. I hope that helps! 👍
what part of the set has the clanging sound? its commonly heard in old school thrash/death/punk. i cant tell if i heard it or not, on account of the echoing. im pretty clueless when it comes to instruments.
I'm not a 100% what you're asking for. I'm assuming you mean some kind of cymbal. Probably just hi-hats or a crash. If you can point to a specific part of a specific song I can give you a more precise answer.
Thank you!!!!!!!!!!!! I don't have a kit, but I have a keyboard that has drum parts. (Maybe someday I'll get a kit.) But anyway, I wanted to differentiate between sounds so that I can make beats on the keyboard.
Glad to help. I have been too busy at the studio to make any new videos recently, but feel free to leave questions. I still try to answer questions here when I can. I'm hoping I can make new videos based on requests in the future too.
@@MTSstudiosmedia I found a list online of the pictures on the keyboard and what they mean. The cymbals all look and sound very similar.
@@lisalegrand2186 Yeah, cymbals can take a little time to discern. Basically some are used for "riding" [playing steady patterns on] when you play time patterns and others are used more for accenting or punctuating important points in time. Most contemporary music will use the hi-hat for the first one of those things and crash cymbals for the second, but they can both be used for the opposite along with other cymbals that can be used in either role too.
For beginners ..drum kits ..how many pieces
3, 4, 5 ...????
Hi! Thanks for the comment. :)
For the longest time 5 piece was just the standard for just about everything. More recently 4 piece is what you're more likely to see for new drum kits. I tend to recommend used 5 piece kits for beginners for a few reasons.
-Most beginner literature is old, so it's based on 5 piece kits since they were the standard for so long.
-Buying used kits is cheaper (and less wasteful potentially)
-Since a 5 piece is a kick, snare, and 3 toms (2 rack and 1 floor) it gives you 4 drums in front of you to play with your hands. A lot of beginning patterns will be based on cycles or sets of 4 or 2, so it's nice to have an even number of drums to map those ideas to.
That all said, 4 pieces are fine!
You don't really see 3 pieces very much. If you search for 3-piece drum set, you'll mostly find high end shell kicks that are just a kick, floor tom, and rack tom, and the expectation is that you would shop for the snare drum a la carte. ;)
I hope that's helpful. Feel free to post any other questions or requests. I haven't made any new videos in a few years since I've been too busy at the studio. I'm hoping to pick back up sometime though.
@@MTSstudiosmedia thank for your time. Yes it was helpful. Keep the good work going
You were supposed to play the crash right symbol lol
Isn’t there a special gadget that u can flip snare on and off with foot?
There might be, but I've never had one. There's a decent amount of niche hardware out there if you look hard enough.
- How do you mic a drum set with only 3 mics?
- Put one inside of the kick drum and take other two in both hands...
Great video, horrible sound
The most minimalistic mic setup you could probably do and get a decent sound would be just one condenser mic a few feet away from the drum set. From there I'd probably prioritize using specialized mounted mics for the kick and snare. Ones for the toms would be nice too, but I'd probably do 2 pencil mics for overheads before I worried about that.
Put that all together and you'd have mounted mics on all the shells (1 kick, 1 snare, 3 toms), 2 overhead pencil mics, and it's nice to have a nice condenser as a room mic as well.
The answer for this video is... zero dedicated mics. This was something just recorded quickly as a learning aid for our in-studio students with the internal mic of the camera. In a pinch you could also use something like a handheld dedicated audio recorder. Some of our more recent videos at least have that, so they have better quality audio. I would like to do higher fidelity version of these at some point, but I've been too busy at the studio to dedicate time to things like that. :(
