	Message Drums
		Message drums are actually large slit gongs, usually constructed from hollowed-out logs, that are used to send messages over considerable distances.
		Small groups of students will each develop a code consisting of several messages that can be sent using two drum pitches, and will demonstrate their code to the class by using it to successfully send messages across a classroom.
		Messages could be relayed from village to village, but if the message travelled to an area where a different language was spoken, it might not be understood anymore.

	Encyclopedia :: encyclopedia : Drum (Site not responding. Last check: )
		Drums consist of at least one membrane, called a drumhead or drumskin, that is stretched over a shell and struck, either directly with parts of a player's body, or with some sort of implement such as a drumstick, to produce sound.
		Drums with cylindrical shells can be open at one end (as in the timbales) or, more commonly in the Western tradition, they can have another drum head.
		The sound of a drum depends on several variables including shell shape, size, thickness of shell, materials of the shell, type of drumhead, tension of the drumhead, position of the drum, location, and how it is struck.

		The bass drum was sometimes kicked to produce a sound, and is occasionally still called a ''kick drum'', though bass drums are now nearly always pedal-operated, and sometimes even played with two pedals to allow for greater speed.
		In a drum kit, the bass drum is much smaller, most commonly 20" or 22" but sizes from 18" to 24" are quite normal, 26" is not unusual in a big band, and extremes both larger and smaller are sometimes seen.
		Originally two identically tuned bass drums were used for this, but a double beater (twin-pedal) on the same drum using an extension mechanism (see illustration) is now more common, although in a live show nearly all metal bands use two bass drums, as the effect is much more impressive.

	Drum (communication) (Site not responding. Last check: )
		There are different communication drum types, although they are all commonly known in Central Africa as "talking drums" or "message drums" and are capable of producing different toness as well as rhythms.
		The message-sending logs are not drums at all from the technical point of view, since they do not have a skin or membrane that would vibrate as they are beaten.
		The drum often has a narrow neck between the drum heads, across which stretch the sinews holding the skins; the drum will be held under one arm, which is squeezed down on the sinews to vary the tension in the drumheads and therefore the pitch of the sound.

	Telephone voice frequency response system for message recording - United States Patent 4,122,307
		The proposed device is such that, upon automatic initiation of the operation of the device, the outgoing message tape operates for a predetermined period and then automatically ceases to operate and, upon cessation of the operation of the outgoing message tape, the incoming message tape automatically initiates its operation.
		Thus, when there is a message error such as a shortage of money which is disadvantageous to the information receiving party, the receiving party will make a claim against the information transmitting party and request correction of the amount on the basis of the record.
		Such a message signal is applied from the message editing unit 15 to the telephone line 19 via the trunk 18.

	Talking Drums
		Message drums, or slit gongs, are huge log drums that can be heard miles away, and their messages are usually in some kind of code, although the code may be based on spoken sentences.
		Message drums were invented independently by several different cultures around the world.
		The player holds the drum between his upper arm and left side and uses his arm to squeeze and relax the cords while he is striking the drum with a curved stick in his right hand.

	[trikes] drum brake maintenance and setup (Site not responding. Last check: )
		I think in general, drum brakes are excellent (I'm more than happy with those on the W/C), but they have to be installed correctly and adjusted correctly.
		For me, the worst thing about the cable operated drum brakes on the W/C is the way that the cables deteriorate.

	Drum
		Drums with cylindrical shells can be open at one end (as is the case with timbales), or can have two drum heads.
		Drums with two heads covering both ends of a tubular shell often have a small hole halfway between the two drumheads; the shell forms a resonating chamber for the resulting sound.
		The sound of a drum depends on several variables, including shape, size and thickness of its shell, materials from which the shell was made, type of drumhead used and tension applied to it, position of the drum, location, and a manner in which it is struck.

		We have drum monitors at two IRIS stations at state park visitor centers, and although they may not know what the wiggles mean, they jump on the phone when they stop.
		But live drum recorders make great station monitors; even when everything is digitized, you don't have to manipulate a display to be aware that there is an event or a problem.
		So if the live drum is quiet, the visitors can look at past activity while they wait for their cave tour (in Onondaga cave: the CCM sensors are in isolated Cathedral cave, 3km west of it).

		Participating in drumming sessions may help people defend themselves from the stress and burnout that can cause them to leave their jobs, according to the findings of a new study.
		When staffers at one Pennsylvania facility participated in six drumming sessions with their coworkers, however, they experienced nearly a 50-percent improvement in mood, including a decrease in feelings of fatigue, anxiety and depression.
		In the drumming sessions, participants performed a series of exercises, including beating the drum to the rhythm of their own name, copying the rhythm of others' names, representing their feelings via drumbeats, playing along to music, and discussing ongoing stresses with the group, if they so chose.

		To have a CD of all drum jams would be the best thing that ever happened to me. That is one of my favorite parts of shows and festivals and such.
		It would be neat to do that soon and advertise the Live CD, the tour and a drum CD (if even as a "coming soon") all together.
		One thought, the release of a drum jam album is an interesting move, because it seemed through Root's recent music that the band was moving away from the drum jams.

		We're probably going to be putting some acoustic treament behing the curtain where the drums are; the curtain covers the brick work for the whole stage.
		The sound also reflects into the drum mic's, causing the drum signals to be much less clean, clear and percussive.
		I was actually playing drums last sunday (the first two services with the screens) but I had good comments from the FOH guy that day, and also from congregation members.

		I used a pair of 4006's overhead and an RE20 on the kick and a 3529 (matched pair) behind the drummer in one session.
		I believe in commitment but I also know how it is to mix some else's recording that was very minimalist and did not nail it and then caused way more trouble than the extra amount of time it would have taken for the extra tracks to be printed.
		What you wind up with is something that sounds like the drum vibe of "When the Levee Breaks", and it makes any room sound bigger than it is because the kick and snare have a pretty radical decay now.
