Best Answer

for the most part, YES:a drummer is a human metronome for himself and others

the drummer:

1. keeps the beat/pulse of the music piece

2. drives the band/music along

3. and adds "some"fills wants in a while-to add flaver, color, tone to the music-as well as the other musicians too-and well performed fills show the others of an ensemble that the music piece is changing-moving on to something else now and than he'll play it again to show movin' on again ECT.....

A metronome can be difficult to hear when playing a loud instrument such as a drum set, however that doesn't mean to not use one!! ALWAYS use a metronome when you can! It helps build a strong sense of rhythm. If you are having trouble hearing the metronome, maybe look into buying a vibrating timekeeper. Many companies make metronomes that vibrate on each beat. Or, as I do when I practice, you can simply plus headphones into you metronome, slip the met into your pocket, and rock out!!
