the drums are, Spock (6) Drum One (8) Drum Two (10) Drum Three (12) Drum Four(13). If you have any questions ask me, I never mind helping out another percussionist. A few things a I will point out is, get better heads, the stock heads are not good at all. I recommend the Evans MX2. Also when you are going out to drum 3 and 4 don't twist your wrists out, use your elbow's and very little and only when going over from drum 3 to 4 with one hand or on the other side of the drums is the only time you ever will need to use your shoulder to move. when sweeping, think like carving out an egg. I see you are just trying to go straight across with out lifting the stick up. So carve an the outside of an egg when doing sweeps. For rim ticking, Take it slow. So JIG 2. If you play that a lot, it's ok if your working on endurance on going faster, but use a metronome and go slow like the original tempo is 169. Take that down to 135 to 140 where your comfortable. And progressively get faster with tempo when you can do it flawless with no rim ticks, no missed notes, or hit a wrong drum. And go all the way up to 169. This is the one thing you don't want to rush. If you rush this it's hard to learn it the correct way. I found that out on a cadence my school plays. But the most important thing to remember always use a metronome. The Drum Tech told me to and made my life 100x easier. Also the harness isn't to low. Your arms are slanted down you want them to be almost straight across with a 90 degree bend in your elbow, and have about a 1 inch gap between the head of the stick and the drum head, makes it easier to gock, so its just straight down rather than having to do something weird with your arm to gock, with time it get's easier. If you have questions, ask me, if I don't know I have the internet or people if I have to ask I can ask them. Also invest in these sticks, my favorite sticks to play with. (Vic Firth Multi-Corp Tenor Tom August). Look those up and take a look. But that's all from me, Have a good day. Keep working and you can be great by your junior or senior year, with practice comes greatness.
I would switch out the drum heads for a better ones, get the Remo suede tan drum heads or the yellow ambassador coated, yellow tanner, drum heads. Also, you have your drums in the wrong order. Drum 413 belongs in the very left, drum 312 belongs in the very right, your 8 inch spark drum should be in the middle betweendrums three and four, drum one is the top right and jump two is the top left.
@@Official_emdog22 thanks for the suggestion and I got this thing in reverse order so I just had in a weird order in the video but right now it’s in the correct order
That’s good Also, I would invest in a good pair of multi Tom/Tanner mounts. I would also invest in a Vic firth marching stick bag to hang on your drum.
You should try to switch drum 3 and 4. They will be backwards but at least they will be set up correctly. You should also switch drums 1 and 2 because you had them backwards when you played them outside
I did switch them to the correct order but when I got it I realized that it was reversed order so I put it in the reverse order for the video but after I recorded it I put it in the correct order
thats jig 1
Get some tenor sticks
me da de presente tô precisando

Stock heads on mine are actually pretty decent
