~ *Punch RIMSHOT* ~


There are many drummer-a new drummer, even a long playing drums do not know the blow is called rimshot.

One day when I became one of the assessment team at the time of audition drum festival (music) in 2000, I saw 2 or 3 people drummer who played with a hard blow, but why his snare sound still does not sound (sound is, but sound slow and not sharp). And it seems he tried to hit snare loudly to be heard, but in vain. Then I saw who it turns out he did not use the technique Rimshot on his snare so that his voice was slow and not sharp.

Many drummers are hard to find a good snare sound, to the extent that they replace the head, to tune snare with different tension and some even to buy a new snare. They do not know the key to get the snare sound is sharp and nice ... that is Rimshot!

Actually it would not hurt you are not using a rimshot. Hitting technique commonly used in country songs, pop. But if you play rock, fusion, funk, latin, jazz and metal that you need you are the RIMSHOT!

If you do not already know about the rimshot, look at the picture below....

This is a normal punch. Drumhead stick only hit the tip alone, the sound is not really focused much less if struck hard and fast drumhead will be concave.

This is a blow Rimshot. Stick on the drumhead and the rim on the snare at the same time, so that the sound produced by a loud, full and sharp, with a blow like this then the drumhead, rim and the shell will be 'voiced' sounds so much character snare drums. Get used to play using this technique. This technique is a must if you want to record. So, make it a habit to use this technique on every song that you play....
