Best tutorial I've ever seen for the RAV and I've been searching for a year. Not only are these extremely informative but easy to follow. Even someone with absolutely no music background can understand this. Thank you so much.
Kay, I am very much enjoying your RAV tutorials. Learning much and having great fun. What a pleasure. I've seen #1 the sound library and hand to hand #2 so far. Thank you for sharing! From Larry in Indianapolis, IN USA
I am a drummer but always wanted to play a hand pan, glad I discovered the RAV because in my opinion they sound better. I am looking for one and wanted a good tutorial on basic rhythms and this video is perfect thank you so much!
Agreed with Cathy best tutorial one can learn much more and with a lot of sense Thanks so much keep giving us more now I really want to play and learn more. Thanks Kay!!!!
Really really good. I have no musical experience and just bought a RAV last month. This was so simple and clear even I could get the hang of this. The progress I feel from this video keep my interest high. Thank you very much.
6Deep6 thanks very much for your comment! im happy that its "understandable". wasnt sure if its too odd with the circle in the beginning.. great to hear that it works! cheers, Kay
It seems to me that the Rav drum lends itself to time signatures such as 2/4, 4/4 etc. However, what if the player wished to diversify and use time signatures such as 3/4, 6/8 or 5/4 etc.? What advice would give to such a player please?
Speaking just as a drummer, the Rav absolutely has no preference of time signature!!! Simply learn how to count whatever time signature you desire and structure around it. Sometimes it can be helpful to break into groups of two's and three's as well, i.e., 7/4 can more easily be felt as two groups of two and a group of three (or a group of four, then three) than simply as seven altogether.
Thanks you, if I understand well the mean thing is that the rhythm and melody repeat itself after 8 counts all the time, that is wat makes stabil and harmonious?
Great tutorials for getting started, not only as far as practicing, but even for beginning compositions. One question: what kind of stand are you using for your RAV, or what do you recommend? Thanks!
Hi Brandon That's great to hear! I would recommend the "multi-percussion stand" made by Sonor. It's quite expensive compared to a normal snare stand, but absolutely worth the money. Very stable and you can fix almost every percussion instrument with it!
Great tutorial thank you, the only thing is confusing at 3:52 you say your going to pick a note for the 7th marker but the 7th note is already taken up by the right hand, it has a number 7 next to it.
Thank you brother. Please keep the tutorials coming. I have just got my rav b Celtic and your videos are the best on TH-cam! Could u make one about timing and different rythms? Are there any rules to follow because I'm just making random patterns and it has no structure.

They don't seem all aligned...

Hallo, könntest Du mir sagen, welcher Stand passt?
Looking to buy my first RAV. What Scale are you in for your lessons here? And what scale do you recommend for a beginner?
please continue
BasketMall 3
which scale is this rav vast?
Great tutorials for getting started, not only as far as practicing, but even for beginning compositions. One question: what kind of stand are you using for your RAV, or what do you recommend? Thanks!
Hi Brandon
That's great to hear!

Thank you for making this video! It's really useful!
Btw, what's this Rav's scale?
for me it's sound like - B Onoleo scale
Hy Shou, its B Onoleo! thank you for your words!
Kay Rauber thank you for reply, it's beautiful!!
What scale is this in, I like the sound of this drum. This sounds very interesting and has a different flavor to it that’s mystical and charming.
I was wondering the same thing. Love the sound of Kay’s drum. I saw below in the comments that it is a B Onoleo.
Great tutorial thank you, the only thing is confusing at 3:52 you say your going to pick a note for the 7th marker but the 7th note is already taken up by the right hand, it has a number 7 next to it.
You are right David! It should mean number eight. I just recognized it now.
Thanks👍
