Product music Drum

The drum in fact various things. There is snare, Tom-Tom, bass, conga, tymbal, mondo, bedug, tabla... etc., they in fact was the drum, because of playing him by means of being stricken. But that was discussed by us was DRUMSET, that could be considered to be most modern by the form of the drum. Drumset personally in fact consisted of 3 drums, that is Snare, Tom-Tom and bass the drum. To Tom-Tom still could be bisected again, that is: Mounted Tom and floor Tom-Tom (depended on the laying and the diameter). From the three elements still had several elements again important, that is cymbal, hardware (the pedal, hihat the stand, cymbal the stand, snare the stand, Tom holder/Tom the stand) and drumhead.

Tom-Tom consisted of various good measurement sorts in his depth and his diameter. The measurement of a drum of his ray was written 12x10 that his intention was his depth 12 inchi and his diameter 10 inchi. The Tom-Tom diameter varies, usually Tom-Tom was smallest berdiameter 6, and continued to 8, 10, 12, 13, 14, 15, 16, 18 and 20. The Tom-Tom measurement 14 above could be classed as floor Tom-Tom, but depended on his laying also. Tom-Tom used 2 drumhead, upper and low, except during the 70 's where Tom-and bass the drum only used 1 drumhead, and his voice was very ugly. The Tom-Tom body or that normally is mentioned with shell was made from wood. For the drum of the beginner's class usually used Mahogany wood and for the professional class usually used Birch wood and Maple. Birch wood and Maple more expensive because of producing the voice or tone that was round and clear. Wood in Tom-Tom usually had the thickness from 4 to 10 mm. It was increasingly thin that wood then the voice that was produced increasingly rich and sensitive. Whereas increasingly thick voice wood that was produced increasingly hard, but his voice was not too rich and not all that sensitive.

Bass the drum too much not be different from Tom-Tom, only bass the drum had the bigger diameter, 16, 18, 20, 22, 24 and even 26 or more. And bass the drum was stricken by using the pedal and being placed was supervised. But the voice bass the drum unlike Tom-Tom that was speaking "Dung..." But tended speaking "Dug..." (more died his voice). Wood bass the drum tended thicker to produce the louder voice and for the drum endurance personally.

Snare the drum was the drum that was most different around other (from the form and his voice). And snare the drum was the main element from drumset (that most often was stricken). This drum usually measures 10 to 15, but that was most normal was used was the measurement 14. That made the difference in snare the drum that is in this drum underside.

Beneath it used wires that had the shape of the spiral or actual was named Snare Wire/Strainer. The object so that made the difference in snare the drum. If you struck head on him then snare wire was supervised immediately responded, by means of 'struck' came back head low and produced the sharp voice. Therefore, in fact the 'life' from snare the drum was located in snare wire him. If snare wire him was released then the voice that was produced almost be the same as Tom-Tom.

Cymbal, again and again was the 'life' for drumset, because almost was not possible to play the drum without cymbal (for example as eating rice without rice, not ate donk... ). Cymbal consisted of their 4 kinds that is:

1. Hihat cymbal: 'Jantungnya' cymbal and the drum. Was useful to maintain time/tempo. consisted of a pair cymbal. measured 8 to 15. The measurement standart 14"

2. Ride cymbal: was the same his function with hihat but with the form and the different voice. Only consisted of one cymbal but measuring big 18 until 22". the measurement of the standard 20"

3. Crash cymbal: Useful to give phrase/the tone to a song. It was measuring that 13 to 22 depended on the player's appetite.

4. The effect cymbal: the Effect cymbal consisted of Splash, bell, china and swiss. Was useful to give the special 'colour' to a song. Splash and bell usually measured 6 to 12 and to china and swiss usually measured 16 to 22.

Hardware consisted of various form sorts and the function:

# the Pedal: Useful to strike bass the drum, also was available double the pedal, that is the pedal that used 2 pedals and 2 hammers or beater to get the vote that more in bass the drum.

# Hihat the stand: To place hihat cymbal that consisted of 2 cymbal so as you could open and close the two cymbal that with foot left you.

# Cymbal the stand: To place all the kind sorts cymbal except hihat.

# Snare the stand: To place Snare the drum and you could change his position sesuka you. # Tom holder/Tom the stand: Useful to put on Tom-Tom.

Drumhead had the measurement, type, the function and the different thickness. Drumhead consisted of 3 parts; First Batter head, that is drumhead that was drafted especially to be stricken. Secondly, Resonant was only placed in the Tom-Tom underside and the front bass the drum. Head this not to be stricken, head this was useful to give the 'life' in Tom-Tom and bass the drum. And finally was snare side, especially only to be placed dibagian low snare to get the vote snare wire him. Snare side was head that was thinnest. Remembered, not to be stricken.
