In 1949 the first electric drums were created.

Not traditionally, but there are a few pieces that call for one. Usually something with Irish or Celtic themes.

The basic beginner drum set usually includes (to the far left) a cymbal called a hi hat which looks like two cymbals on top of each other. The cymbal (in the diagram) at the top in the middle is called crash and comes in many sizes from 13" to 19" usually. The cymbal (in the diagram) to the far right is a ride and is usually bigger than the crash. the flat drum beside the hi hat is the most used drum on the drum set and is called a snare drum. The big drum on the bottom is called a bass drum. The two drums on top of the bass drum are called rack toms and the drum on the ground is called a floor tom.

Now that's just the basic drum set. As beginner drummers progress and get money perhaps they tend to want to expand their drum set to mach their talent. Some othe cymbals are the china or Chinese cymbal and almost looks inside out or wavy. Splash cymbals are small ranging from 4" to 12" also there are cymbals called accents that look like splashes but have a very ringy high pitched sound. Cowbells, wood blocks and tamborines are sometimes added to sets to add different dimentions to the sound.

That's about it but there are other unusual peices of equipment that are sometimes added to drum sets.

well it depends on what kind of drum you are talking about. if you are talking about a snare, the bottom head shuts off all the ringing sound and adds a surface for the springs to "buzz" up against. without it it will sound like a tom.

it's a symbol, part of a drum kit and makes a clang-like sound when stuck with a drumstick.. it's a thin, mostly flat piece of metal that is suspended in the air on a pole...surely you've heard one, unless you don't listen to music at all

The bass drum generally provides a strong beat for the music. Mostly played on a downbeat, or the other strong beats in that meter (Time Signature)

You tighten or loosen the head, the drum's membrane, (very carefully). A tighter head will give a higher pitch. To avoid shearing stress on the head, you want to make sure that tension is as evenly distributed across the head as possible.

It all depends on what you want to call a drum kit. So I guess it's anything with at least 2 percussion instruments of which at least 1 is a drum.

Some drum kits (if we're talking about non live players) have big drum kits on their harddrives. I personally like each of my kits to contain

10 kicks

10 snares

10 hi hats

10 open hi hats

Etc...

The melody controls the feel which dictates the rythms of the accompaniment.

No it is not. The oldest instrument would be the bone flute. It is made out of bones from a bird. It is estimated to be about 40,000 years old.

it is used in almost, if not all, reggae songs

a surdo is a drum and it has leopard skin materials in it

Drums -Dw drums custom snakeskin wrap and black hardware: 8"x5" tom (not in use on tour), 8"x7" tom, 10"x8" tom, 12"x9" tom, 14"x11" tom, 16"x14" tom, 18"x16" tom, 22"x18" bassdrum (x3) and a 14"x5" snare with chrome hardware and 14"x6,5" DW bronze metal snare drum series with black hardware. Jimmy uses differents DW rack parts including DW Super Main Rack, DW Side Rack, many clamps and boom stands for microphones and cymbals. -DW Pedals: DW 9000 PC Single Pedal(x2: The Rev only uses 2 single pedals because he doesn't use his third bass drum since it is only used for esthetic. A third bass drum is essentially pointless in this case. Also, The Rev uses black Roc-N-Soc Nitro drum throne. == -Sabian cymbals: 14" AAX-Celerator Hi-hats, 18" Sabian Signature Jojo Mayer Fierce Crash, 19" Paragon China, 19" AAX Metal Crash, 22" AAX Metal Ride (x2), 19"AAXtreme Chinese, 10" AAX Splash, 10" Chopper Effects Cymbal, 11" Signature Max Splash and a 10" HH China Kang. In the studio for the last self-titled album, The Rev used also Zildjian cymbals: he used an 18" Oriental Classic China instead of the Paragon, two 21" Zildjian Z-Custom Mega Bell Rides instead of the AAX Metal Rides and an A-Custom Projection Crash instead of the AAX Metal Crashes. -Drum Sticks: Pro-Mark TX5BW Signature Model(5B) and Easton Ahead 5B for self-titled album recording - Evans Heads: Batter/Resonant Tom:Evans G2/Evans G1 Snare: Evans Power Center Reverse Dot/ Evans Hazy 300 snare side Bass drum:Evans EMAD/Evans Resonant Black (excepted that for the third bass drum it is a DW 22" Clear/Coated batter head because it comes with the kit and he stills not uses this bass drum.)

The timpani is a pitched instrument. You adjust the foot pedal which changes the tension of the drum head. This is what changes the pitch.

In African drumming, the title of master drummer is given to a drummer who is well known by other masters for his high skill and knowledge. It is a title passed down from a master to his pupil, after he has learned all there is to know about the African drum.

In general, a master drummer has given his whole life to the djembe and dunun. He is able to play any part of any rhythm for his ethnic group and neighbouring ethnic groups, in any ceremonial situation. He also knows the songs and dances that go with each rhythm. A drummer can play for twenty years before he or she is given the status of 'Master'.

Another type of master drummer is a person who leads other drummers in playing drum rhythms, e.g. in the French Caribbean styles, the master drummer may be called "kamande" in French Creole.

From my personal experience, both are pretty equal using the stock heads and rims, but when using higher quality heads (remo, evans, etc) and tune them well I think the export's tone is significantly better.
