no, you one hand on and hand holding the mallet and hit it in between the direct middle and edge of the base drum.

hey, I play a vintage Ludwig kit and finding the exact bass drum has proved futile. It really depends a lot on what you are hoping to do. If you want the "look" from a dbl bass kit, i'd say get the same bass drum if you can. If you want it for the practical use, i would invest in a dbl bass pedal. if you use another bass drum that is different you may have a headache getting them tuned to sound exact (though this can still be an issue w/ the exact custom bass drum if you get two). With a good dbl bass pedal, both beaters hit the same drum for the same sound. Not sure if this helps. Either way, keep hittin' away! Hey thanks so much! I am the questioner but what set do you have? Hey i am also looking at adding more toms on.... Have you added any on your set? What brands are they? Ludwig is a great brand but they just don't have much extra drums to add on... I got my set from my dad for Christmas from the biggest drum shop on the east coast! I am mainly adding on for both look and practice. I am not the world's best drummer but I practice all the time and I am really improving... Can you upload a picture of your set so i can get some ideas? Do you have a dbl pass drum or pedal???? thanks so much!
Both of them will get you to a similar point: being able to play bass drums with both feet. Advantages of a double bass pedal over two bass drums: lower cost, one less bass drum to move, one less drum to tune, and it keeps your kit smaller--very important if you play in bars with small stages. Two bass drums? They sound better--you can position the beaters for each drum so they play the sweet spots on the drums. You can mount four rack toms instead of just two. Two bass drums make the instrument look more imposing. And I've always wanted to try using two different-sized bass drums, so I could play bass lines with two different tones. That would sound cool. I've seen people build a double bass kit out of a standard kit and a fusion kit, which has smaller toms than does the standard kit. This also gives you a second snare, which you need onstage just in case you break your snare drum during a set.
For a simple rock band you will need 1 electric 6-string guitar, 1 electric bass guitar (most common is 4-string) and a drum set (including bass drum, snare drum, toms, and cymbals), and then top that all off with a vocalist(lead singer) .
No way man....res heads need to vibrate to produce a full sound, the batter heads are made thicker so they won't vibrate.
A wood block is kind of a drum "accessory". The Essentials of a standard drum kit are the following: Hi hat,Ride and Crash cymbals and mounted tom toms, floor tom, bass drum and snare drum. Of course with that you also need the bass drum pedal,Hi hat stand, Cymbal stands, tom holders, and etc. A wood block would be added if needed but it is not essential to a standard kit.

I need a drum in order to play the drums. Why do you need a drum?
The electric drum set is becoming more and more popular these day because of it's versatility how quite it is and it's ability to record. Most electric drum sets these days come with a kick pad that reads the double bass. However there are some that you have to buy a different pad in order to play double bass.
Yes you just need a headphone splitter then put the splitter in the bass slot and plug both bass pedals in
Double Bass Drumming Explained is a good book for techniques and equipment adjustments (plus its really inexpensive), and Encyclopedia of Double Bass Drumming is good for lots of different beats if you already know how to play but need something to practice.
