K-60 Drum Key

Product Information

See the video example above for "Buzz roll/Closed roll" for an example of how to play a "buzz" stroke. You only need 3 things from a simple drum key - a good fit on the tension rods, robust enough that it doesn't scar or damage itself or the tension rods, and is affordable but not so cheap that it has sharp edges or anything.

Hit the crash cymbal on the bell, either with the tip of the stick or with the shoulder of the stick to produce a louder sound. We advise you to update to a currently supported browser (such as Chrome, Edge, or Firefox) to improve your security, speed, and overall experience.In our sheet music, we use the Z symbol on the note stem to clearly indicate when you should use buzz strokes over diddles. This indicates that the ride should be hit with the shoulder of the stick on the edge of the cymbal. If something on your kit can’t be adjusted by a drum key then the likelihood is you’re not meant to touch it. Loosen hi-hat: The technique is a commonly used technique to "build" into a section of the song or transition between two parts.

Hybrid combinations where a drummer is using both acoustic drums and electronic drums are also becoming common. D2 Percussion is a Piping and Drumming tuition and retail business, founded in 2008 by directors David Henderson and David Ross. To produce a louder sound, you can play the ride bell with the shoulder of the stick rather than with the tip.The tip of the stick strikes the drum head, generally just off-center, and the shaft of the stick strikes the rim.

IMPORTANT: If your drums are setup in this arrangement, it's common (and often necessary) to play f loor tom 1 as your tom 2 and floor tom 2 as your floor tom 1 when reading drum sheet music. the Thomann logo is a thing of immense beauty, and has a wonderful tactile feel, which helps drum tuning by up to 36.Other keys come with quirky features such as the Evans magnetic key which clings onto tension rods as you loosen them or the Wincent bottle opener drum key which arms you with arguably the two most important tools a drummer needs on a gig. The clip allows the drummer on the go to fasten their drum key to almost anything so that its easily accessible and quick to find.
