Newbie mistakes???

[Deemed]

Sa guitar central may top 40 newbie mistakes, sa pag drums ano ano ba ang mga mali na nagagawa ng mga beginner?

[FINGERZAP]

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! 

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

Dagdagan nyo na lang...

[Deemed]

awts sapul ako sa ibang nilista mo ah. ahaha

[CDodrummer]

foot technique. letting the beater press against the batter after the note

[Ralph_Petrucci]

8. Over-filling. Inserting fills where it's not needed or appropriate. Sa desire nilang magmukhang magaling, puro fill na lang ng fill.

guilty as charged!!

evven until now!

Guilty on a few counts!

3. Not using ear protection

nah!

[CDodrummer]

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

[peeves24]

watching too many videos instead of practicing 



ouch

[rhanen28]

bili ng bili gear pero hindi nagpapractice



hehehe 

[rockizta123]

ako nagaairdruming instead of investing on a good kit at least fernando

wala kasi akong kit eh! but im good

[FINGERZAP]

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

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.  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.

[dasplinter]

So far eto yung mga mistakes na lagi kong ginagawa.. 

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 

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..   

[rimshot601]

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.

 

[DumDrum]

guilty as charged!!

evven until now!

me too!

[Chopstix]

ouch!!

isa pang common mistake eh nagmamadali lalo na pagkatapos ng fill. biglang bumibilis at nawawala na sa tempo.

[compvr]

eto siguro worst mistakes, dinaanan ko din yung iba dito hehe(not implying na magaling ako ha, im far from being magaling  ).

-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.

[ushuaia]

akala ang music ay pagalingan,pabilisan at pagandahan ng gamit.

inuuna pa pogi hindi ang musika.

NICE thread!

mga kapatid, nagdrums na ulit ako kanina, napagtanto ko na kailangan ko nga ng metronome hahaha! nawawala rin pala ako sa timing pag di ko na marinig yung tinutugtog

boom! andaming ganyan dito at nagsasalita ako ng tapos. period.

[rastah]

hehehe 

OUCHHH!!!!!!!!!! sapul na sapul ako...

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
