I've been wanting to get into photography a lot lately. You dont happen to have anyone around here that's a genius with a camera i don't suppose?

I should really go to a photography forum, but well, i don't really know any.

LOL Phil is a really good photographer... but as you can see he just left until he feels like coming back.

And Jay k*bang*thnx*came*bai

Damn. The only camera i have is an old film one, so i guess i should probably buy a digital before i start learning.

Old school cameras rock. They are more fun tbh. You never know what the picture gunna look like until you get it developed.

Thats true, but the price of developing is pretty harsh around here. Actually, it would be much more fun to set up a dark room.

I really need to learn to read sheet notation for drums.

Im determined to know at least half of the rudiments before i buy a kit.

much better

Why on earth do i have to install itunes to use quicktime.

Apple are getting as bad as microsoft these days.

just listen to the audio clips. once you listen and view the written music it will start making sense. the line the notes fall on will always be snare drum in drum sheet music.

the first thing to learn is whole, half, eigth, sixteenth and thirty-second notes.

Thanks.

I dont suppose you can make a thread explaining sheet music for me could you?

Basically which lines represent which peice, how notes fit into different time signatures and that kind of thing?

Dude, ignore different time signatures for the time being. When very first learning to read, stick with 4/4 imo.

Probably best. Despite previously owning a kit, i didn't really bother to learn any of this stuff.

DRUM! magazine has a pretty cool explanation of drum notation at the beginning of every issue.


Heres the most basic rock beat.

bottom notes are bass drum, top X's are hi hat.

Ahh, the basics of rhythmic theory isn't really THAT hard once you get going with it. Just gotta take your time.

Click on Lessons, the first 7 will really help you although they don't 100% apply to drums, you'll get the idea.

ah yes musictheory.net i completely forgot about that site. the flash lessons are great!

basic notation is probably the easiest thing about music.

Thanks guys.

This is more in depth. You've mostly gotta be concerned with note duration and the notation of rhythmic patterns and phrases. Basically, what a quarter note is or an eighth note etc etc and how it relates to the metric time. Really, it's all about equally dividing time.

Spend some time with these lessons. It's all snare stuff.

Then you've got a simple key for where each part of the kit belongs on the staff. Be aware that it can vary from chart to chart. Only slightly though, like in some charts, the hi hat will be above the top line (like in Kainen example) in others, the top line will be going through the note.

Don't worry yourself with that now. Spend at least a month on the top link.....

Sup guys

yo skinmasher. it should be skinflayer. =D
