FINGERDRUMMING METHOD with hand position techniques *(ft. the Yamaha FGDP)

- In addition to going over how to quickly acclimate yourself to the FGDP pad layout, I go over all of the various hand positions and approaches that I personally use to do fingerdrumming (as well as share my philosophy of the instrument itself).

I love you Tory! 🥰
Okay I want to learn how to do this because this is the best I’ve seen on the fgdp layout wow!
Better than Superior Drummer, that's for sure!
This comment is not supposed to sound weird, but there’s no other way to say it. You have incredibly talented fingers. Both on the guitar and on the tap drummer.
That was normal 😅
Incredible!
Fantastic! Both this and your guitar stuff.
I have followed David for years .
You are one of the best finger drummers Ive seen.
I use an akai pad, but this looks really interesting.
Thanks, finger drumming is one of my favorite things to do, especially when I'm just kind of unwinding, maybe after practicing guitar all day or something I'll just play some drums for the next day or two... I like it also kind of gives you a different set of ideas that kind of cross-pollinates your compositional concepts and writing... I'm actually thinking of releasing just a drumming album, something kind of similar to maybe what Nate Smith has done, although I might use different kits and even write some, sort of late 90s drum instructional video type tunes... Not really anything that showcases guitar playing for solos, but you know it's just really kind of interesting piece to drum on, that kind of thing... Definitely going to probably wait until this channel gets bigger before I jump into that though
wowwwwwwww
Outstanding finger drumming tutorial and demo. I used to play real drums before moving to guitar. The Yamaha FGDP ergonomic layout looks to have solved the lack of stick bounce feel by mirroring the pads for both hands - Smart design. I've tried pads with a uniform grid layout, and found them totally unintuitive and no fun to play.
The Yamaha FGDP-50 looks like it might be worth the extra $100 just to make navigating the menus easier.
Your prowess on the guitar is alive and well on the finger drums. Impressive! 😎
Yeah, I'll probably pick up the fgdp50 at some point too. Although, I like the compact size of the 30....
@@FusionFingerDrum In doing research on the Specs, everything was looking good until I saw this Sample Format: "WAV, AIFF (44.1 kHz, 16-bit, mono/stereo)." Wish it had an option for 48kHz, 24-bit. 😥
Yes, thank you! I actually ended up getting this after seeing you vouch for it, I fell in love with it the moment I got it. As a guitarist who has no space for a drum kit, and as much as I love my sampler/sequencers/drum machines, it's not the same, this was a proper game changer. I'll go through this lesson now :)
Please tell me, Yamaha paid you dearly! And if so, ask for extra! You are the hottest seller of gear, period! And I mean this businesswise, in case anybody starts to choke. Your talent is beyond money or any of the usual. 🤘
Nope, not sponsored
@@FusionFingerDrum Well, I bought a Squier tele, an AKAI drum pad, and a Boss GT-1 as a GP-10 surrogate, all down to you. Gear makers, are you out there?
Agreed, if you have slender female fingers. But if you have craftsman's shovels like mine, then you don't need to try to play triplets on the small hi-hat pads on the 50. A pair of sticks is worth its weight in gold.
Shovels. 👋😂... However it gets done, whatever works for the individual, I say... I obviously like listening to acoustic drummers quite a bit....
Been waiting for a tutorial like this! Thanks
☺️👍
Thank you so very much. That is very helpful! Now I can get a good start on my Yamaha FDGP- 30.
The guys at DRUMEO should invite you Tory 😊
Amazing as always.
Everybody else do Qwerty, Tory does Steno...
Fantastic technique!!!!
Fantastic tutorial & amazing playing Tory , i cant believe how good it sounds , i really like the layout on this device its much better than the other drum machines with their linear layouts…
I agree
Hey Tory, this super interesting stuff, thanks for sharing! I've been playing the FGDP units since last October and they really influenced my playing style (finger rolls, which were harder to do on other devices which you mention as well I think) as well as my practicing (with the easy access, just turn it on and play). Very curious to see how all of this develops. Rock on! 🙂
Hey! Thanks for chiming in, love your channel! ... As for the sensitivity, I think I really bang the hell out of the things with my fingers in general, lol, I probably play a bit too hard, to be honest.....
Oh my lord, how are you this good?
Practice
@@FusionFingerDrum 😎😎😎
Holy shit! Thank you algorithm for recommending this channel. Subbed! 🤣
👋☺️👍
Amazing!! thanks
this is the thing that Yamaha is missing, a real artist to layout his approach to this layout and showcase how to use it like it should.
can you go over you're modification and favorite kits for the FGDP30?
Well, I used to do it on my keyboard - but, now you are sharing a better idea to play drums using our fingers. Hoping the long pad can be made positional pad sensitive like the Roland R70 by Yamaha. Cheers!
its all nothing without DYNAMICS, but unfortunately thats the hardest to get. good luck!!

Hi Tory and thanks for all your videos an tutorials, very useful.
I found this new device just a few days ago and I´m evaluating if buy it or not.
I can't say why, but I feel that this is the first step in the instrument and that if FGDP is commercially successful, surely there will be a second version that incorporates everything that the users are suggesting (feedback)... Maybe it is my intuition, but I have a feeling that this instrument needs to be improved in some functionalities. I would like to know your opinion since you play it every day.
Also, I was thinking and wanted to ask you, why did you choose this model and not the FGDP-50? Thank you very much again and greetings from Buenos Aires, Argentina.
Most likely. It's kind of niche TBH
Hi
👾👾
A couple of things I was wonderin':
Is there a provision for an additional foot control
Is the device velocity sensitive and
Do you ever swing with it (?) (and thanx in advance)
No foot control. Velocity yes. Swing..... did you watch the video entirely or anything else on my channel?
@@FusionFingerDrum I found you with your tapping guitar which profoundly blew me away...
I don't tap and I write my drum stuff on a sample piano roll sequencer...
...but that don't stop me from digging you, girl... most inspiring/entertaining I've seen in a while
Thanx Do you ever gig in L.A.?
