DrummerMom Posted September 24, 2001 Share Posted September 24, 2001 It isn't as easy as you might think! My first try doing single strokes I scored 605 singles in 60 seconds. ------------------ Lori"DrummerMom"Henderson http://homepages.about.com/drummermom/drummermom/ Lori"DrummerMom"Henderson Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DrummerMom Posted September 24, 2001 Author Share Posted September 24, 2001 It's much easier with your feet! I only did 580 the first time though! Practice will make prefect! ------------------ Lori"DrummerMom"Henderson http://homepages.about.com/drummermom/drummermom/ Lori"DrummerMom"Henderson Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DerekDrums Posted September 25, 2001 Share Posted September 25, 2001 I'm getting mine VERY soon, for my birthday on the 19th. From rough estimation with a metronome, I can hit a little over 800. But I want to improve on that. Not really to become the fastest drummer, but it'll be great for progress. The faster I can play, the easier I'll be able to play faster things I play now. That's basically my focus, trying to stay as relaxed as possible behind the kit. This can only help! I can't wait to get it!

bb thomas Posted September 25, 2001 Share Posted September 25, 2001 DrummerMom, hahahaha! That's great! When did you get yours? A minute gets really long doesn't it? You are really making progress though. Keep us posted. How are you hooking it up to the feet? BD, Pad ?? What are you running in 1 sec. 2 sec. 3 sec 4 sec. 5 sec. does your 1 sec run hold up for 5 sec. in other words if you run 20 in 1 sec you should run 40 in 2 sec. 60 in 3 sec. 80 in 4 sec 100 in 5 sec. etc, etc, This is how Johnny Rabb trains.

Passeist Posted September 25, 2001 Share Posted September 25, 2001 What's the advantage of practicing with a Drumometer, as opposed to practicing with a metronome or drum machine? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DrummerCafe Posted September 25, 2001 Share Posted September 25, 2001 If you visit http://www.Drumometer.com , they have answers to all your questions. Someone should encourage them to start a forum of their own. There are so many people interested in the device, I'm sure they would get a lot of sales just by offering a place for WFD fans to chat.
