How is your bass drum pedal set up?

Welcome to DerekRoddy.com
I don't really change anything from the way they ship from axis. I tighten the spring as tight as it will go. I use a felt danmar beater. I like the felt because... I like my bass drum to sound like a bass drum, not a trigger. (This means.... when I show up to do a jazz gig, (say a wedding) a quarter taped to the head and a wood better just doesn't cut it when the band leader is telling me to "play softer"!!! (when I'm ALREADY playing with brushes).

How do I choose a good drum head?

Mapex Drums :: The Drummer's Other Voice
When you buy the drumhead, before you put on drum, check the rim of the drumhead and make sure is even through out. Make sure also that where the connecting part of the rim with the glue meets, is not disconnected.A good drumhead you can strike with your thumb or finger and almost get a tone out of it. If it's to flappy without a tone, I choose another.

Is it possible to record the drum track or a bass track on the audio track?

FAQ menu
It is possible. Using the bounce function, you can record the drum/bass track to any audio tracks. At this time, you should mute the other audio tracks. Also, an effect also can be used on the drum/bass sound. A rhythm pattern is stored in memory for each project. After saving an original rhythm pattern, you can import it into your new project. With a digital mixer, the appeared fader position can be different from the actual parameter value.

Which Lake in Mexico is the "BEST" for bass angling?

Mexican Lakes Our Most Frequently Asked Questions
Well, that's a really tough question to answer unless we first define what one considers the definition of "BEST" might be.

How long does it take to learn how to play bass?

Guitar Teacher - Sydney: Guitar and bass lessons; FAQ
It is less complicated than guitar where you need to play chords, melody, fillers, riffs and solos. When you play bass, you play bass lines which are one note after the other rather than chords. Also, you can get away with just a bass and an amp without having to add sound effects like guitarists do. Nobody has time if they don't make it. The same goes for money, you won't have any if you don't work for it. So, if you want to achieve something you have to make time and work for it.

WHY EXACTLY DOES SHE PLAY THE BASS GUITAR?

Gea: faq
In the beginning, in the first draught, Gea played the electric guitar. Then I chose to make her play the bass because I believe it's an instrument which reflects her character better.

The bass player stays in the background but often holds the whole group together rhythmically.

Will The Principles help me if I play bass guitar?

The Principles of Correct Practice for Guitar by Jamie Andre...
Most definitely! In fact, the technique you need for bass is really the same as for guitar; it especially resembles classical guitar technique.

The Foundation exercises in The Principles are ideal for the development of this strength and stretch. Further, the right hand technique for bass is exactly the same as for classical guitar right hand.
