Reuben is the drummer for Austin TX metal bands MEYVN, IZRAFEL, and WITCH DIARIES. Surrounded by music his entire life, Reuben began taking snare drum lessons at age 15, and excelled in marching, symphonic, and jazz bands during high school and college. Nonetheless he developed most of his drum set abilities on his own, listening passionately to classic rock and metal, and practicing an extreme number of hours per day. As a result, he is able to manipulate complex time signatures, and has achieved levels of speed and accuracy rarely seen. His musicality, dexterity, and smooth execution have been considered impossible to duplicate. Striving to reach the boundaries of musical possibility, Reuben continues to push his limits on the instrument to astonishing new levels.
Just the video I was looking for - thanks man! I’m putting together a system, slowly, and couldn’t find a single video that wasn’t 7.4.5.666.69 when I just needed to learn what 7.2 was. You showed me all I needed 👍
Thanks so much for the demonstration and recommendation of the Tama sizzle clutch! it's exactly what I was looking for when it came to playing hardcore and metal.
My problem is with my Pearl Excalibur the left pedal is hitting metal to metal on the round nut directly below it, attached to the base. I adjusted the chain back a little but it lost its sound. Is there another way to stop the collision of the pedal to the bass
I am not familiar with a Pearl Excalibur pedal. Never heard of it! However, on most pedals there are adjustments that would help with the issue you described. Usually it would be a pedal height, and/or beater angle adjustment.
Thanks a lot, i re-start playing drums and found out that when you dont know the product is very hard to make your mind into which one will be the best. This kind of videos are must needed.... Respect
What many people don’t realise is that it’s relatively easy to remove the folding legs from a standard hi hat stand. The one on your video 0.53 has a grub screw holding the stirrup which can be removed and the legs slid off.
Oh, I was looking for how to plug electronic drums into a computer to record the drums with the computer. I guess kinda like this video but in the opposite direction with the signal.
i don't have a double bass pedal, but always have in mind of cutting one of the legs off my hi hat stand, the legs swivel but when i had a double bass pedal, i always had issues
Depending on what module you have, there are usually jacks labeled Master Output R & L(mono). Just plug your speaker/amp into the L(mono) output, and that's it!
Thank you. My dad was a drummer. He recently passed. He left me a set of drums that I took apart to transport. I couldn't remember how to get this on. He also had the double bass pedals. So it makes sense now. Really appreciate the video.
I can get a good deal on a set of these but would only buy them to convert to an acoustic kit for backline rental for local/regional opening acts. I'd like to have a kit I can add internal mics to so I can just hit them with an XLR cable and ditch any needed stands for kick and toms. Thoughts? Suggestions? I'm open to ideas
I've never tried using it as an acoustic kit, but I think it'll work fine. I'd say go ahead and try it if you can get the kit cheap enough. If not, then just get a cheap Pearl Export kit.
I am about to possibly buy this clutch. Does it give a tight sounding closed hi-hat when engaged or does it sound more washy no matter how toght you put it?
@@mattchase2112 The Tama Sizzle won't keep your hi-hat closed tightly, you'd still need to do that with your foot. It only lets you control the amount of wash, or sizzle when engaged. Hopefully that helps!
I'm a new self-taught drummer but long time musician. I don't know any of the additional hardware outside of my $200 craigslist trash set but this is totally a nifty little piece of equipment. I'm glad you showcased. Going to pick up one of those high hat bass drum clamps.
Does the mounting with H830 work pretty good until i can maybe invest in a two leg stand? My new double bass set came H830 and need a month or so to save up for a two leg stand.
I need help, I have a snare drum Gretsch - Silver series maple 14 x6,5, a few lugs have damaged thread inside and is losing after tuning, do you know where can I find them for replacement ? I tried everywhere to all music shops in Norway and they don't have it. Thomann also doesn't have it, any advice will be good for me. I am not a specialist in drums, my son is the drummer.
You need to replace the Swivel Nut Inserts. They are designed to replace missing or stripped swivel nuts on toms or a snare drum. These fit with most snare drums and toms, and help keep your drums tuned up and working properly. gibraltarhardware.com/products/sc-ln-small-swivel-nut-inserts-for-snare-tom-drum-lug-12-pack
Its great that you have number to tune too....thats most of the battle...Go to tunebot Artists tune guide...and find a favorite drummer sound...and copy there numbers to your drums...THEN FINE TUNE TO YOUR TASTE..😊
Hi Srumner Reuben I searched everywhere for a solution/tutorial/instructions on the internet as well as in the install guide. But as I plug in my cable in both my phone, and my Donner DED-200 nothing happens - my phone doesn't recocnize the aux input device (which it does, when I connect it to my over-ear headset). I'd really appreciate if you had any suggestion for this. Thanks in advance.
Unplug the cable from both ends, restart the phone and drum module, then plug back in. Make sure both ends are plugged all the way in. If there's a case on the phone, try removing it. If you've already tried all that, I can't think of any other fixes. Never heard of that happening before! Let me know if you find a solution.
