kung gusto mo mag session sa mga tv shows.. oo.. kelangan yan... maganda din kasi marunong bumasa.. para on the spot.. pwedeng pwede ka pumalo.

marami ka kasi pwede pag gamitan nung pag read ng notes eh... kaya panalo talga pag marunong ka...

ako hindi marunong.. someday.. mag aaral ako. heheh

tama si bam. minsan kasi kahit araw-araw ka mag-practice may times pa rin na parang walang lumalabas na bago mula sa mga palo mo. kaya ok din yung note-reading para doon. kumbaga it breaks the "barrier" para mas ma-improve yung dexterity mo sa instrument mo.

daemonite · « **Reply #9 on:** December 22, 2006, 08:05:29 PM »

yup, honestly, di rin ako marunong bumasa ng notes, pero i get the idea from leafdrums tsaka guitar pro. di ko talaga alam formation ng mga notes pero i have an idea how it goes, paging jpmb marunong ata sya eh.

note reading really breaks the barrier and makes you understand how the drums work more. kung bakit ganito ang fill in nya, bakit singkupado sya and stuff like that....

jun_BALARAW · « **Reply #10 on:** December 22, 2006, 08:34:45 PM »

useful din talaga pag marunong ka magbasa ng notes... like me simula natuto akong mag notes mas nakapag explore ako ng husto..
pero mas madalas uwido ako.. dun kasi ako nagsimula..

drumster · « **Reply #11 on:** December 22, 2006, 09:40:53 PM »

For me, reading notes is not really a requirement for drummers. But I firmly believe that it can give a drummer the extra edge/advantage.

I can read notes. But I'm not a fast reader. Maybe if only I could read notes faster and effectively, I can get some of those high-profile session gigs hehe!

That's why I admire those first-call session drummers such as Mike Alba, Roy Mercado, Vinci Rodriguez & the Regalado drummers. I wish I have their sight-reading skills. Kahit salpakan sila ng musical director ng bagong piyesa a few minutes before the gig, they'll still be able to nail it! They are that good.

vincher · « **Reply #12 on:** December 23, 2006, 04:33:01 AM »

huy dio di ako firstcall! hehehehe di ako worthy to be with thoses names!!! bagal ko pa magbasa din, in fact i really need to work on my reading skills.dream ko talaga maging session drummer pero dami ko pa kakainin.thanks din bro for your comment about me

thanks talaga bro!

back to the tpoic, for me it is very important that a drummer can read notes kahit basic level lang. dami mo mapupulot pag nagbabasa ka.imagine basahin mo lang books ni garibaldi, erskine gadd, etc para ka nang naglesson sa mga master

Gep · « **Reply #13 on:** December 23, 2006, 04:55:04 AM »

Agree!!! Isa pa, maraming drum lessons na transcribed as notes (e.g. Modern Drummer lessons).

Nung una tinuruan ako magbasa at magsulat ng drum tabs sa extension classes koi, kaya may idea ako sa note reading, KASO mabagal pa ako sa mga intricacies ng pagbabasa at pagsusulat.

johanncalabig · « **Reply #14 on:** December 23, 2006, 07:06:49 AM »

I'd agree with Drumster and the others. Note reading is not so important. But it gives an extra edge. Joe Morello and Stevie Wonder are both visually impaired but they're great drummers.

intake · « **Reply #15 on:** December 23, 2006, 10:39:59 AM »

yes importante yun...nag lesson ako sa casa musica at puro notes ang pinapabasa sakin ng teacher ko...after 12 sessions napansin ko na lang na nagagawa ko na yung hindi ko nagagawa dati

kasi sa notes...mapipilitan ka talaga na tugtugin yung mga hindi mo kayang tugtugin eh

amber_rsm · « **Reply #16 on:** December 23, 2006, 11:57:39 AM »

tnx mga sir.. meron lang nagbigay sakin ng lesson sa drums, hindi alam basahin lahat pero ung ibang basic na nbabasa ko medyo mabagal nga lang. gaya ng sinabi ni sir pmack minsan nkakakuha ako ng kakaibang technique sa pagbabasa ko khit iniisa isa ko muna bago ko gawin.. hirap hatiin ang utak sa pagbabasa at pagddrums hehehe

Bro, ibang usapan na yang "sight reading" sa marunong lang bumasa ng notation. Para sa akin, pag marunong ka ng sight reading pwede ka na sambahin ng ibang drummer! hehehe! Imagine, on the spot kaya mong tugtugin yung nakasulat sa harap mo! Hahatiin mo talaga utak mo nun!

Ako talaga, tenga lang ang ginagamit ko. Madami akong instructional CDs with books na may notations pero sa CD lang ako nagrerely. Parang mas nalilito ako at hindi bumabaon sa katawan ko yung tugtog pag tinitingnan ko yung symbols.Kaya ang tendency, hindi kopyang kopya yung palo ko kumpara sa CD, but at least "original" ko na yun!

Pero advantage talaga yung nakaka intindi ka ng notations kahit di ka mag sight reading, depende yan sa goal mo as drummer!

sa tingin ko naman may advantage kung marunong ka mag note reading. one reason why i think this is so is because the drummers who read notes in my mind, tend to be a lot more versatile than the drummers who don't read or don't read yet.

me, i don't read. it's hard because i still have school. someday i'll study note reading. i wanna study coz i wanna improve my tempo, versatility, and voice of my playing.

if you wanna hit it big kailangan yan.

pyong_2 · « **Reply #20 on:** December 25, 2006, 05:13:34 PM »

natigil nako magpractice para bumilis sa pagbasa ng notes, naiwan ko kasi sa barkada ko yung manual ko na nagpapaguide din, napakaraming advantage pag nakakabasa at nakakasulat ka ng drum notes, lalo na kung mabilis, kasi mabilis ka sumipra ng pyesa kahit gano pa kakumplikado. kinig sulat, kinig sulat tapos basa, hanggang mamemorised na heheheh, kahit makalimutan mo pa after 2 months basahin lang yung pyesa ok na, di na kailangan halos ng MP3 o ano pa., i pray makapagpractice uli ako how to read notes faster....pray 4 each other to be as good like the others , GDBLZ & MERRY XMAS

lil.drummerboy · « **Reply #21 on:** December 25, 2006, 05:35:33 PM »

para sakin hindi naman talaga importante as long na marunong ka pumalo. pero reading notes kasi advantage na yun sa isang drummer. lalo na kung mabilis ka mag basa. pag may gig na biglaan, pwede na diretso tugtog wala ng practice practice. hindi pa ako masyado marunong mag basa ng note. marunong ako koti pa lang . mga basic pa tapos medyo mabagal pa ako mag basa.

Jim Ayson · « **Reply #22 on:** December 25, 2006, 05:39:12 PM »

One reason why I've always wanted to (and still aspire to) read drum charts is to be able to play all those licks, patterns, and transcriptions in Modern Drummer and drum books. Learning to play by ear is one thing but it would be cool to able to play (and write out) charts.

rasta_gopz · « **Reply #23 on:** December 25, 2006, 10:54:25 PM »

pag dating sa nota d ako ganun kabilis mag basa ginagamit ko lang to pag sobrang hirap ng pwesa at d ko masundan sa cd or tape mas detalyado kasi pag naka notes n kailangan alam mo bilang ng bawat nota para kahit alang tape kuha mo yung tyming

Chopstix · « **Reply #24 on:** December 26, 2006, 03:44:04 PM »

i guess its good to know how to read your drum notes. i tried playing the drums 15 yrs ago and i was just listening and trying to play based on what i hear. may mga fills or patterns na d ko magawa then so i gave up drums and took up another hobby (i.e. drinking, gimik etc) pinapanood ko na lang yung mga magagaling na drummer dyan sa atin habang umiinom.

after 14 yrs, last year, i enrolled in a class and surprisingly, i can play them na when i'm reading the notes. parang mas dumali gawin yung pattern or yung mga fills pag nababasa mo na. mas madali maintindihan kung san papasok yung fill and parang mas dumali gumawa ng sarili mong version ng mga fills since makikita mo kung pasok ka sa bilang o hindi.

pero syempre, iba rin yung magaling ang tenga mo. d rin naman cool kung masyado kang dependent sa drum tabs. so kelangan mo rin i-balance.

my 2 cents..

Merry Christmas guys!!!
