  Rhythmweb reviews: Djembe Dundun Drumset by Maarten Schepers
Maarten is a drumset player /percussionist who has been immersed in the phenomenal French/African djembe/dunun scene for years, and he has done his homework.
After a bit of historical and cultural background, given for each rhythm at the beginning of the section, the rhythm is then treated in detail from the viewpoint of the original instrumentation, with basic patterns, variations "chauffes" [loosely translated as 'heating up'], and solo material.
It might be better to know the basics of drumset and drumset reading in order to be able to really use the material presented..

  Dummies::Deconstructing the Drumset
A drumset commonly has at least two, if not three, of them (some drummers, such as Neil Peart from the 1970s rock band Rush, have dozens of tom-toms, so go wild if you want to).
The typical drumset usually has one or more crash cymbals used for accentuating certain parts of the music, usually the beginning of a phrase or section of a song.
These cymbals were really popular additions to drumsets during the stadium rock era in the 1970s when drumsets were huge and drum solos were a staple.

 drumset glossary
Drumset / Drum Kit - A collection of different percussion instruments generally including but not limited to bass drum, operated with a foot pedal, snare drum, cymbals, and toms.
Rototoms are toms with a single head and no shell they are tuned normally but the pitch can subsequently be changed by turning the drum around a central threaded bar which tightens or loosens the tension on the head over the bearing edge.
It is commonly referred to as 'kick drum' or simply 'kick', especially in the rec.pro.audio arena, so as not to confuse it with bass guitar during mixing, recording, etc. The bass drum is mounted with the head vertical to the floor and is hit by a pedal operated beater.

 DRUMMER CAFE - Djembe Dunun Drumset by Maarten Schepers   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-02)
It is clear that author Maarten Schepers is well versed in the French/African drumming tradition, with his knowledge of drumset and percussion allowing him to connect and apply the Djembe and Dunun with the modern-day drumkit.
After the thorough explanation of the traditional dunun and djembe patterns, the parts are superimposed step by step so that the reader can interpret and apply the rhythms to the drumset.
The book will definitely be a little overwhelming (at first) to the individual who doesn't have much experience (newbie) with music notation, let alone drumset notation.

 Dummies::Miking the Drumset in Your Home Recording Studio
You'll probably have problems with a few other mics on the drumset picking up the hi-hats, particularly the snare drum mic and overhead mics.
The most common types of mics to use for overheads are large and small diaphragm condenser mics because they pick up the high frequencies in the cymbals and give the drumset's sound a nice sheen (brightness).
To mic the drumset with overhead mics, you can use either the X-Y coincident technique or spaced stereo pairs.

This performance follows the structure of a traditional Indian tabla solo in which the original tabla strokes are precisely translated onto the drumset, performed over a repeating 16-beat cycle.
In order to best unify the tabla and drumset, I have taken the repertoire which my Guru has taught me and applied it to the drum set in a completely classical and traditional Indian manner.
Dan Weiss' understanding of the Indian rhythmic tradition, his transposition of the tabla compositions for drumset, along with his incredible playing of the drumset, all make for a beautiful and very inspiring album.

 Drumset FUNdamentals
Drumset began to evolve in the 1890s—the result of the popularity of John Philip Sousa’s music, the lack of enough drummers, the inclination of music contractors to hire too few drummers, the lack of space in orchestra pits for enough percussionists, and the emergence of urban music (especially from New Orleans)
Dee Dee Chandler is generally considered the first to play with a pedal in the late 1880s or early 1890s.
Once the bass drum pedal appeared, the drumset began to evolve.

 The 174-Sound Electronic Drumset. at Hammacher Schlemmer
The kit's seven durable rubber pads and two foot pedals can be assigned to any of the sounds, and the bass drum pedal provides dynamic volume control; the harder you press with your foot, the louder the kick sound.
The hi-hat pad is located to the right of the snare pad, and allows traditional crossover players--right hand over the left hand--to practice without having to change their technique, and also facilitates transition to an acoustic drumset for beginning players.
The kit has a hand percussion mode that allows the pads to be played with the fingers and palms, providing a more realistic feel while drumming.

 Practice pad vs drumset workout
Because they spent far too much time practicing on a pad as opposed to applying their technique to the drumset.
I suggested to WFD founders/Drumometer inventors, Boo and Craig, that they wire an electronic drumset so that each of the three drum pads (snare, rack tom, and floor tom) could be measured on a single Drumometer.
If you're using an acoustic drumset, plug some headphones into your metronome and use that to work your pattern through the entire range from slow to fast.
