Notice

Important explanations: A drumset mainly consists of shells (Toms, Bass- and Snare drum) and cymbals (Ride, Hi-Hat,...). Sometimes it has some exotic stuff (chimes, percussions,...) which good drummers use. The Bass drum (35/36) is used to support the bass guitar; or, how I say: it tells stories. They are used with a pedal (you play it with your foot). Drummers often have "double basses" so they are able to play fast bass lines. The Snare(38/40) drum is used to underline the rythm: it kicks your ass! The Toms (50/48/47/45/43/41) are needed for fills (short stuff you play for variety). The cymbals (42/46/49/51/52/53/55/57/59) are used as ride and accent parts of the drumset. Drummers use the Hi-Hat, Ride or other fitting cymbals as "ride": You hit them permanently in the rythm (you beat the regulary track beat). Some cymbals are used as accents. They push or accentuate beats. A special cymbal is the Hi-Hat: It is put up on a stand with a pedal. A drummer is able to push the Hi-Hat (two cymbals) together or open them. Cymbals have a "bell" which is bright and soft. Especially the Ride's bell is used as for riding. (understood?) -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- I often use the drum kit 0 because it is a basic drumset. The others (16 or 24 for example) have other sounds. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- How you see in the introduction, I show you the different parts of a drumset. It's much opener if you give an own line to every instrument (of course, it is given to you)! In bar 5 you see two different Crash cymbals. You can see one of them as an accent cymbal (49) and the other one a ride cymbal (57). In the example I show you two patterns in which I used all "stuff" a drummer plays in four bars. It's just there so that you see a drum pattern in that way I (will) teach you. In the Hi-Hat-Using you see how to use a Hi-Hat. Played with one hand or two you are able to create a funny, pushing and maybe lazy rythm. Everything you want... what you can see in the second part pf H-H-U! The using of cymbals: Some are made for riding, others for accents (I told you). The ride cymbal is made for riding only (the name sais it)! It would sound loud and bad if you play it as a crash!... The Splash is often just as an accent. Sometimes it sounds terrible as ride. The Crash'n'stuff are suitable for both. The Snare: It's a pushin' and kickin' drum. It lets you feel the rythm and it supports. Some guys use it like a ride-cymbal (as in a march or death-metal,...). And the Bass: It is used for "guitar-like" stuff. Some drummers play the same stuff (bar 41) in every song (Wolfgang Petri,...)... Some drummers "tell stories". You see I used the Tremolo Picking for a drumset !? It's just laziness (sometimes it's confusing but it works)! The Toms are used for fills and sometimes as rides (solos and fast pushing stuff like "Know" - System Of A Down"). -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- At inquiry I would tab a 2nd part of "Drum-Tabbing For Newbies" with more stuff (inclusive Guitars,...). -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- I hope I help you to tab drum tracks! Questions and/or comments are totally welcome! Search for the Composition-Artist "Slippy" with the searching machine on MSB and listen to some songs (for example "Faces", "Ab Geht Die Muddi" or "Get It") ! Or see in my profile which songs I already tabbed for bands ( for example the song of my band Mind - Men In New Dresses)!
