Title: Newbie mistakes???
Post by: Deemed on April 22, 2008, 10:47:40 PM
Sa guitar central may top 40 newbie mistakes, sa pag drums ano ano ba ang mga mali na nagagawa ng mga beginner?
Title: Re: Newbie mistakes???
Post by: FINGERZAP on April 23, 2008, 12:04:50 AM
1. Not having the patience to learn rudiments. Gusto nila drum set na kaagad.
2. Not practicing with a metronome.
3. Not using ear protection
4. Using old beat-up sticks (may cracks/dents/chipped parts, halos napuputol na). Sticks are your main tools, so they shouldn't get in the way of learning the instrument. You're gonna have the best chance of success possible if your tools are working properly.
5. Not loosening up. Tense up your grip and you risk injuring yourself.
6. Learning how to play but not learning how to tune the instrument itself.
7. Hitting cymbals directly on the edge thus causing them to crack.
8. Over-filling. Inserting fills where it's not needed or appropriate. Sa desire nilang magmukhang magaling, puro fill na lang ng fill.
9. Practicing their hand technique but forgetting to practice their foot technique.
10. Spending more time posting here in Pinoydrums when they should be practicing their chops!  :-D

*Which reminds me, I gotta go log-out so I can practice!

Dagdagan nyo na lang...

i used to be guilty on 3. not using ear protection. my damaged my ear(thanks to z customs crash and hihats). Doctor suggested  I quit drumming but I would never do that! now I'm using isolation headphones :)

Masasakit ba yung mga pinagsusulat ko?  :-D Don't worry, tinatamaan din naman ako sa mga pinagsususulat ko dito!  :lol:

O eto pa: Wanting to learn drum solos right away! E double strokes at 120bpm nga lang, kandahirap na, drum solo na kaagad? Before taking up integral calculus, you should know differential calculus muna.  :-D This is akin to guitarists wanting to learn fast solos right away when they haven't even practiced their hammer-ons, pull-offs, bends, vibratos, etc.
Title: Re: Newbie mistakes???
Post by: dasplinter on April 23, 2008, 10:44:53 AM
So far eto yung mga mistakes na lagi kong ginagawa..  :-D

2. Not practicing with a metronome.
well, tingin ko kasi wla nman akong problema sa timing eh..? thats why i dun use metronomes.

3. Not using ear protection
parang s*x, mas masarap when u do it naturally  :lol:

6. Learning how to play but not learning how to tune the instrument itself.
hndi ko tlga malaman pano i-tono ung drums ko sa bahay.. well sa tingin ko ok naman yung tunog.. kya hndi ko na pinapakialaman.. baka mapunit yung heads eh..  :lol:  :lol:
Title: Re: Newbie mistakes???
Post by: rimshot601 on April 23, 2008, 01:04:04 PM
Too many cymbals and cowbells but so little chops.

Jumping to soon on the double pedal bandwagon when one hasn't mastered the rudiments on upper limbs yet.

Inclined to ask questions (open new thread about an old topic) instead of doing research on his own first.

Buying/using inappropriate gears to the style of music his band plays.

Copycat syndrome.

isa pang common mistake eh nagmamadali lalo na pagkatapos ng fill. biglang bumibilis at nawawala na sa tempo.
Title: Re: Newbie mistakes???
Post by: compvr on April 23, 2008, 02:33:30 PM
eto siguro worst mistakes, dinaanan ko din yung iba dito hehe(not implying na magaling ako ha, im far from being magaling  :-D).

-playing too loud, di na madinig ibang instruments.
-double pedal agad ang binabanatan kahit nadadapa pa pag single pedal.
-advance na beat at chops agad ang gusto gawin.
-tadtad ng electrical tape yung dulo ng stick, maling hawak ng stick.
-maling pagpalo ng cymbals, at drums.
-feeling magaling kahit nagsisimula pa lang mag drums.
-"rudiments? ano yun?"
-hindi gumagamit ng metronome (ako din minsan lang gumamit, kaya naiiba beat pag nag fi-fills hehe)
- mentality na: a.) mas malakas pumalo, mas magaling. b.) pag nakakaputol lagi ng stick mas astig. c.) mas magandang drumset, mas magaling yung drummer.
-walang ginagamit na hand at foot techniques.
-hindi nag aaral ng basics.


ok to mga bro lalo na pag i pi print tapos ipopost sa mga rehearsal studio.

Hehe! Kailangan talaga metronome. When I started drumming, I didn't even know what metronomes were. Back then, when I would practice playing along with my CDs, sa dinig ko, hindi naman ako nawawala sa beat. But it's very possible kasi na within the context of a song, maaaring di ka nga nawawala, pero pag sinabay ko na sa song yung click ng metronome I discovered na most of the time slightly nauuna or nahuhuli ako sa click ng metronome. Hindi mo madi-discern ito kung puro background music lang sinasabayan mo. Pero with the constant click of the metronome, it will become obvious. What's more, if you're practicing rudiments, kailangan talaga ang background click ng metronome. You're not gonna practice rudiments with music as your background because, like I said, with music as your background possible pa rin na mauna ka or mahuli ever so slightly sa beat.

With metronomes, magiging SPOT-ON yung timing mo.

oo nga, akala ko tama lang tempo ko, bumibilis din pala ako konti, at nawawala talaga ako hehehe, pero pag rinig ko yung backtrack, nakakasaba ako, pag di masyado, nawawala din ako hehehe :-D
Title: Re: Newbie mistakes???
Post by: daemonite on April 24, 2008, 11:30:22 AM
1. Not wearing Ear Protections (Kelangan talaga ito)
2. Metronome usage
3. Too much cymbal notes
4. Bad timing on fills, bumibilis tuloy ang tempo.
5. Carry over tempo from a previous song
6. Having time for practice
Title: Re: Newbie mistakes???
Post by: rockizta123 on April 24, 2008, 12:26:37 PM
add ko pa:
-walang pakialam sa gitarista
-di nagaadjust ng tempo kahit off beat na siya
-masyadong malakas ang palo, akala niya magaling siya pag malakas pumalo
-masyadong mahina pumalo (mahinhin) :lol:
-nagmamadaling gumaling magdrums :-D

2. Pinapalo ang crash sa dulo ng bawat stanza.

10. Spending more time posting here in Pinoydrums when they should be practicing their chops!  :-D

I extend emphasis on #2 and #3. (I have to admit I fall under #2 still)

#10 is a different story! That should be acquitted of all charges! :-D

Usually I notice newbies trying to attain that "show-off", speed oriented drumming instead of quality.

Rarely do I see newbies which really sit down and master the cleanliness of sounds they produce from a kit and really discipline themselves on the basics first.

As we always hear "we had to learn to crawl before we walked then ran," same goes here.

ehem maraming ganyan. mahilig magtanong ng mga tips, exercises at kung anu-ano pa pero di din naman gagawin yung kahit ano dun. maraming excuses. hehe. if you want to get better, lay off the keyboard and get on with your drumming. gusto kasi ng tao ata yung madaliang (at madaling) solusyon sa problema e.

@akira jumbo
tama ka diyan sir. recently ko lang na-appreciate yung "mastering the cleanliness of sounds" pati yung inuna ko yung basics (rudiments, et al.). siguro kung nagmadali ako nung newbie ako at inunang pumalo at magaral ng kanta kagad mas bulok ako ngayon pumalo. frustrating sa una kasi parang ang bulok kong drummer at wala akong alam na kantang paluin pero nung tumagal mas na-reap ko yung payoff. salamat sa teacher ko. haha.
Title: Re: Newbie mistakes???
Post by: Helmet on April 25, 2008, 04:44:19 AM
1. Uneven volume ng pagpalo around the kit.
2. Inconsistent timings. Tama, dapat nag-me-met (hindi metathione ha, metronome).
3. Not learning how to tune the drums.
4. Has more time practising hand tricks rather than rudiments.
5. Learning the notion "Faster is better". Paatras kung matuto.
6. Pag may composition yung banda, hala sige kung anu ano ang pinag-gagagawa, quarter-fills lahat!
Title: Re: Newbie mistakes???
Post by: Bammbamm on April 25, 2008, 12:37:02 PM
Obsessed with high end gears too soon instead of instructional materials or formal lessons.

Focusing on fast double bass chops instead of mastering the basic rudiments and dynamic playing.

Plays too L O U D with wrong techniques which eventually lead to broken gears, then questions the quality of the gear but never himself or his wrong technique.  :lol:

3. Not using ear protection.
4. Using old beat-up sticks. (wala kasing pambiling baong sticks, im poor!)
10. Spending more time posting here in Pinoydrums. (whahahahahaha, No Comment!)

Ayun! Sapul ako! Whahahaha!  :-D :oops: :roll:

Pahirit pa nga!
1. Malakas pumalo,  hindi makontrol ang palo. dahil sa gusto magmukang magaling.
2. Hindi alam ang tamang paghawak sa sticks. (laking connection nito sa number 1. kung mali ang hawak mo sa sticks, hindi kontrolado ang palo mo at ang labas nito ay malakas ang palo and may risk na makasira ka ng gamit.) na-experience ko na to. ask nyo na lang kay kuya jardy(Jamstreet). hehe..
3. Hindi nagppractice sa bahay, sa jam lang ngpapractice. "kahit walang gamit . kaya gumawa ng paraan. make your own practice pad".
4. faster = better > WRONG! be accurate first!

correct me if i'm wrong, wala kc ako masyadong alam eh. hehe. pasensya na.

Bro it's not advisable to hit cymbals directly on their edge. See #1 here (http://www.zildjian.com/EN-US/support/productcare.ad2). Newbies tend to think "anything goes" pagdating sa pagpalo ng cymbals.

playing as loud as he possibly can
playing all over the place (just saw a dude hit every tom and cymbal on every line of STP's Plush just to do the same fills in all the songs in their set)
- doing fills after every line in a verse an chorus
- doing the same fills for every song
inappropriately playing double bass
not bringing his own set of sticks
borrowing other drummer's gear
no water supply on stage
clipping flingernails just right before a gig

and...

no extra shirt to wear after the set..  :-D

Nabobored mag-start ng mabagal, hindi nya alam hindi nya pala kayang gawin yung ginagawa nya pag mabagal ang tempo! :-D

Umaasa madalas sa adrenaline.

Walang dynamics, laging malakas ang palo!

Limited ang pag hinga habang nag da-drums.

Nalilimutan mag warm-up bago tumugtog.

pagsunod sa gitara kapag tumututog, its a bad habit...
always remember ikaw dapat ang sinusundan, never skip the neccessary fills at covers, and dont add unnecceassary fills especialy at mellow songs

there are rich kid type newbies who buy really expensive equipment but not knowing what they are for, its a waste of money and a bad image, carrying around double pedals when you cover songs from hale and mellow types

there was this kid who once thought i was showing off to him during our set, nagmadali syang umuwi kinuha nya yung stock pedal nya chaka sya nagpaparinig na main pedal nya daw yun.

yung isa naman naka gibraltar intruder sya na double peds pero hale yung covers nila, he never used the slave pedal and consumed too much time setting up

to the newbies; never try to show off, maraming humahanga sa ganung tipo

there was this kid who once thought i was showing off to him during our set, nagmadali syang umuwi kinuha nya yung stock pedal nya chaka sya nagpaparinig na main pedal nya daw yun.

yung isa naman naka gibraltar intruder sya na double peds pero hale yung covers nila, he never used the slave pedal and consumed too much time setting up

to the newbies; never try to show off, maraming humahanga sa ganung tipo

Nuff said bro. di na mapapaganda pa yang sinabi mo. sobrang totoo.

nawitness ko an yung tungkol sa double peds, nagdala nga, kaso di alam gamitin at lalo lang sumagwa ang tunog.

meron pang isa, ginaya yung ginawa ko, kasi pumalpak.

advice lang sa newbies, nanggaling din kasi ako jan. May kanya kanya tayong style at genre. kung simple lang ang kaya mo palang talagang gawin. dun ka nalang muna, hahanga pa ang tao sayo kaysa pilitin mo magpasikat, malalait ka pa. Okay? piece of advice lang naman to, nasasa inyo parin ang decision.

hindi naman sa pagdadamot, pero nakakainis din ung ibang drummers na nanghihiram ng drum gear (usually double peds at cymbals)...ultimo sticks hihiram. ang masama pa dun, dun lang din kayo sa gig na un unang nagkakilala...may pagka-makapal din pala ang pes eh noh.

Natutuwa ako mga sir sa mga nililista nyo dito ah!

Ako tingin ko pinaka common mistake ng mga newbies eh masyado sarado utak nila to different kinds of music. If you just stick to one genre, yeah gagaling ka nga dun. Pero you don't really add anything new to it. You simply are good with what other drummers have been doing for the longest time. Pero let's say you a rock drummer, with a show band background..isipin mo ang bigat nyo pero ang ladkit ng tunog..Sarap!

not learning the basics of drumming... just playing anything he/she can... oo nakakatugtog ka nga kulang pa rin kaalaman mo.. yung mga drum exercises, etc... madali lang tumugtog... pero siyempre kailangan rin talaga ng formal drum lessons... drummer namin ngayon may lessons sa tatay ni drumbi... i forgot he's name, eto drum video niya sa youtube (yung tatay niya ang nagtuturo sa drummer namin ngayon baka kilala nyo hehe)
(when he was 7)

Ang pinagka iba natin sa mga gitarista ay di tayo swapang sa kaalaman natin sa pagtambol.  Hanggang ngayon, pag nagkikita kami ng mga kaibigan kong drummers, excited sila maki bahagi ng kaalaman nila sa iyo.  At excited din silang maka alam ng bagong technique galing sa iyo.

Ang sakit ng newbie na drummer ay ang katamaran nya mag research.  Tulad nga nang nabanggit ninyo, sobrang sarado ang isip ng newbie sa isang uri ng tugtog.  Yung iba naman, sobrang taas na ng lipad at di na maka absorb ng tuwid na payo mula sa mga beterano.

Aaminin ko na ang dami kong palpak na pag uugali nung nagsisimula ako.  Matigas din ang ulo ko noon. 

Nag bago ang pananaw ko sa pagtugtog nang pahiyain ako ng isang beteranong gitarista habang nag ja jam kami.  After the jam session, bumanat ang gitarista nang ganito... "hetong si Paco, mahusay ito tumugtog ng rock!  Maladkit pumalo!"  Syempre... palakpak tenga ako!  Sabay sundo't ulit sa lahat ng mga beterano na nasa studio... "...pero wala syang kasing BWAKAW!"

Andoon ako habang sinasabihan nya ko.  17 years old ako nito.  Dream come true na maka jam itong mga "legends" na ito.  Finally, bumanat ulit si "guitar hero"... nakatingin sa akin....  "alam mo Paco, parang basketball ang jamming!  kung ikaw ang point guard at nagdadala ng bola at nakita mong open sa loob ang team mate mo, dapat ipasa mo ang bola!  Hwag kang BWAKAW!"  Sabay dagdag... "ganon din sa pag tugtog.  Pag narinig mong guitar adlib na... pumoste ka.  At kapag kumakanta na, pumailalim ka.  Kapag climax na, bumanat ka!"

Gusto kong umiyak noon pero pinili kong lunukin ang pride ko.  I learned.

Kay Mar Dizon at Benjie "bagets" Mendez ko naman napulot ang ugaling pag re research.  Sabi ko dati... idol ko sila.  Sabi ni Bagets "idol ko si Colaiuta, bakit di mo i-research kung paano sya tumugtog."  From that moment on, tuwing may mapapanood ako or maririnig akong drummer, inaalam ko kung sino ang influence nya.  Papakinggan ko ang influence nung drummer na iyon para pag na absorb ko ang influence nya, ibang mutation naman ang execution na magagawa ko.  Iwas "cloning" kung baga.

Again, ang isa sa pinaka importante na na stress na din sa thread na ito ay ang pagsasanay sa metronome.  Hindi mahirap sumabay sa metronome!  Mindset lang yan.  Bakit ang gitarista, bahista, keyboardista, bokalista at kung sino sino pa... bakit sila nakaka sabay sa iyo?  Ano ang meron sila na WALA tayo?  WALA!  Naka ulgalian lang nilang sumabay sa atin.  So, kung iisipin natin na kailangan nating sumabay sa isang metronome, kailangan lang natin itong pakinggan at sabayan.

WAKAS...   :-D

more on memorization. as in kung ano lang yung pinagaralan na kanta yun lang ang alam.Feeling nila magaling na sila dun. pero kapag hinalo sa ibang banda or pinapalo ng simpleng kanta di na makasabay. kasi hindi talaga inalam yung fundamentals kung kelan gagamitin yung basic fills at beats (4th, 8th, 16th notes). saka hindi pinapraktis yung musicians ear.

I do really hate people who dont have the guts learning to tune their instruments..!! ive already encountered persons that do always want me to tune their instruments(drums & guitar)

i really dont know how to tune Drums...  i read all those instructions, watched tutorials in youtube... wala pa rin.

what i do now, is that i make sure all the lugs are equally tight and i follow that "star pattern" ... i dont care for pitch, i just make sure it sounds good and it doesnt have huge sound discrepancies like "tog" sa left side and "pang" sa right side *lol* ... they pretty much do a "tog" pero hindi ko talaga sila kayang i same sound on all lug corners.

the drum sounds OK to me naman... its not perfect but its good.

is this right? or chances are my drum sound is just WAAAAAYYYY out of tune?

am i in the right thread? *lol*

Post by: stryffe_20 on February 09, 2009, 04:35:19 AM
Hmmm, after reading SOME OF THE posts here... Here's what I thought..

-Overlooking one's self development on drums and while playing drums..
-Watching too much drum lessons that cause one's self to be over concious on how good he / she looks behind the kit / while playing on the kit...
-Looking in to too much styles and implementing them all at once
-Taking a jump on too many foot techniques that cause sprains and all
-No concentration when practicing...
-Not spending time on listening to one's self and asking for other's opinion on how well one's self is playing
-Not understanding how one's body should move while playing drums
-Not accepting mistakes after being informed by others on how one's self would play.

====
I personally hit myself on all these aspects and I'm still correcting at least a few of them now, thankfully because I do record my self on a cell phone.

Remember practice makes perfect.
Too much practice makes one dumbfounded..
To eradicate that dumbfoundedness you need to expose yourself and have birds of the same feather listen to how you play. What you look like. And accept Comments wether it is good or bad.

No one improves by perfection alone.
Even people who think they are perfect make mistakes.

And dame kong narealize sa pinost ni ser Paco. Hindi ako newbie in drumming pero may mga traits din ako na sobrang related sa mga "mistakes" na sinasabi niyo. Like cleanliness in playing at pag gamit ng metronome. I realized na worth it buhayin tong thread para maging aware ang mga bagong register dito sa Pinoydrums tulad ko at ng iba pa. Madameng aral dito mga brad! I guess isa tong ginagawa ko sa mga nasimulan ko lang marealize, ang "pag research". Kaya I kept on reading old threads e, laking tulong talaga sa mga may walang hangganang tanong tungkol sa pinili nateng instrumento. Keep on searching, never stop drumming 8-) o tara post pa ng mga "mistakes" :lol: para marame pang matulungan na nagsisimula pa lang. Malaking bagay ito para sateng lahat, newbie o senior man.

1. Not having the patience to learn rudiments. Gusto nila drum set na kaagad.
2. Not practicing with a metronome.
3. Not using ear protection
4. Using old beat-up sticks (may cracks/dents/chipped parts, halos napuputol na). Sticks are your main tools, so they shouldn't get in the way of learning the instrument. You're gonna have the best chance of success possible if your tools are working properly.
5. Not loosening up. Tense up your grip and you risk injuring yourself.
6. Learning how to play but not learning how to tune the instrument itself.
7. Hitting cymbals directly on the edge thus causing them to crack.
8. Over-filling. Inserting fills where it's not needed or appropriate. Sa desire nilang magmukhang magaling, puro fill na lang ng fill.
9. Practicing their hand technique but forgetting to practice their foot technique.

No sense in all with the rudiments and all techniques of your drummer doesn't even know how to keep his beat in time.

....PRESENT!!dito sa bahay ok lang,pero nung 1st time ko nasa studio kahit audience lang ako tanggal tenga ko eh hehe kasi kung pumapalo ang bigat ng kamay haha XD..

5. Not loosening up. Tense up your grip and you risk injuring yourself.
...PRESENT!!HEHEnung una ung nagturo sakin ng twice lang nka traditional grip ginaya ko ang hirap haha tapos nag watch ako sa youtube tapos kumuha ko ng idea kung anong grip gagamitin ko,then I used match grip american and french grip..

6. Learning how to play but not learning how to tune the instrument itself.
....PRESENTO!!hehe..nagpapatono pa ko dun sa 1 drummer dito samin tapos nung kinalaunan youtube ulit ako ayun!alam ko na hehe kahit papaano :D

7. Hitting cymbals directly on the edge thus causing them to crack.
...sa cymbals ko ok pa naman siya wala pa namang punit hehe

8. Over-filling. Inserting fills where it's not needed or appropriate. Sa desire nilang magmukhang magaling, puro fill na lang ng fill.
..hmmmm d ata ako nagfills puro basa kasi ako ng tabs nung mejo natututo na ko,kahit ngaun minsan pag nagcocover.... XD

9. Practicing their hand technique but forgetting to practice their foot technique.
....AKO din eto hehe
heel up yung ginamit dito diba?gusto ko kasi matuto ng ganyan kabilis >.<

10. Spending more time posting here in Pinoydrums when they should be practicing their chops!  grin
...more on surfing,Facebook, MMORPG games, gym hahaha :lol: :lol:

Mahirap magturo ng Metronome dito via chat o PMs.. Mas ok kung personal.. Try youtube kung may makita ka baka mas maintindihan mo.. Tas paturo na lang pag may kakilala na kayong marunong na pwede niyong ma-meet personally.. Good luck :-)

@zachki ako din nahìhirap. . Nasasabayan ko lng kung dug pak dugdug pak yung beat hehe
@musician yung pag gamit nang metron0me together with the band di ko maintindiHan. Dba na babago yung beat sa isang s0ng? I mean pag 200 bpm yung yung biglang bababa sa 100 pano masasabaYAN sa menotron0me yun? Ex. Helena 200 ata yun sa intro at 60bpm sa chorus ty po

May mga metronome na magaganda talaga, yung tipong lahat ng program mase-save dun.. Halimbawa katulad ng sinasabi mong si Helena nasa 200bpm ang intro, pwede kang mag save ng 200bpm basta katulad lang ng kung ilang measures ang hinihingi ng intro ng kanta.. Tas biglang 60bpm sa bandang chorus na, ganun din may program na naka-save na yung 60bpm pag dumating na sa tamang bilang ng measure..

Mahirap talaga ipaliwanag dito.. Mas ok talaga kung sakali umattend ka na lang ng mga EBs ng Pinoydrums, marame kang makikilala na pwedeng magturo sayo..

Magandang metronome yung Boss DB-90 Dr.Beat Metronome.. Halos lahat ng pro musician yan ang ginagamit, lalo na ng mga drummer at percussionist.. Kung di ako nagkakamali mga nasa 8k yung mga ganyan.. Pinag-iipunan ko rin yan eh :lol:

@TOPIC:

Eto di nalalaos, yung mentality na "SPEED OVER SKILL" sa kahit sinong drummer (on non drummer)...
Yung school mate ko na di pa marunong nag-drums nagtanong "marunong ka mag-double peds???"
Sagot ko nalang sa kanya "Marunong pero hindi Chris Adler or Joey Jordison" sabay grin :-D
"Turuan mo naman ako oh, gusto kong mag blast beats eh" napangiti nalang ako sa kanya...

best to hit the cymbal where it would sound best and effective, as cliche as it may sound. here's an illustration as to where to best hit a cymbal depending on the sound your after:

(http://www.sabian.com/img/layout/anatomy-of-a-cymbal/anatomy.gif)

yung parang headphones pala na suot ni vic ay isolation earphones. as the name states, it isolates any unecessary noise giving the player a clearer sound perspective PLUS hindi ka pa mabibingi since it acts as your hearing protection from unecessary noise. certain models come with audio capabilities na pwede mo isaksak sa metronome to maintain proper timing while playing. :wink:
