Calvin Rodgers Drum Clinic at Musicians Institute pt.1

[@johnniejames9799]

Thousands of songs and he can remember every lick and change like he only played one song in his life. This is why he is the absolute BEST DRUMMER in GOSPEL right now!!

[@ChristopherDillman]

The tightest and finest single pedal bass drumming I've heard in a very long time. Well done CR.

[@teddyondrumz]

That kick pattern on "Free Indeed" is soo Dope!!

[@sidbigman8567]

The cleanest drummer I know

[@Chyuuch]

The best drumming I’ve watched live or on video in a long time

[@shikabane444]

His ride cymbal work is just awesome🥺

[@yup466]

Keeping time fast with the hi hat.

[@iantouzel638]

The boss is behind the kit, magic touch, incredible.

[@determined2praise]

I hate how they EQ’d his drums man….but as always Calvin killed it

[@davidwalton3367]

One of absolute favorite drummers

[@calebkayyeboah893]

Even though the toms aren't tuned to perfection, Calvin brought beauty and life to everything. Bludo Jnr fan

[@morbidmanmusic]

bad engineering, and mixed to loud. Not the tuning.

[@calebkayyeboah893]

@@morbidmanmusic I see

[@RasNaaSay]

You right

[@benjamincentgraf3222]

I'm so gratefull for this course video!!

[@RasNaaSay]

This guy is from another planet.. 💪🏾💪🏾

[@myjojobrown582]

Praise the Lord!!!!!! For he is worthy to be praised! 🙌🙌🙌

[@drummerdae5102]

Anyone know what ride cymbal that is ? And what hi hats those are ?

[@JeremySmith-sx9oe]

the man that has drum skills

[@dennisford8416]

calvin rodgers is Kicking the Hardware off that kick drum forreal

[@sowegarailproductions4089]

Anybody know what that stack is? I know the top is an ozone splash

[@dray4393]

So professional. I love his approach.

[@sauceboss3916]

That snare sounds so good

[@agdrummer2610]

Sauce Boss his tom sound is what I try to go for when I tune. And the snare tuning is no less amazing as well.

[@chukwuvictory2982]

My mentor, much respect Calvin

[@TheBassman0327]

to all the haters out there who clicked thumbs down grow up and give this man props hes a beast and you guys know it

[@jonathanmelendez23]

Hi guys, Thank you for posting this. Amazing! By the way, Calvin’s last name is spelled “Rodgers.” Thanks again guys. Be blessed.

[@drumprogram6511]

Thank you for catching that. All three videos have been updated. Enjoy.

[@15sagnew]

I'm trying to figure out who gave this legend a thumbs down? 🤔🤔

[@adamstixx7365]

15sagnew right

[@tonyprendergast5194]

just when I think I've watched enough of Calvin Rodgers to know what his limits are he shows me tall his ceiling is

[@hdfloyd]

greatness, just effortless.

[@ryanspeed4671]

Always enjoy his playing..

[@RodZilla11]

Either the mix is off in the mics or the heads are not tuned right. The snare and hi hat sound good, but the Toms, bass, and the cymbals, sound really bad. His drumming is still Top Five on the planet though despite that.

[@kingvixen1991]

David Rodgers the toms didn’t really blend with the music to me,maybe too high at the mixer

[@Michael_Clark_II]

David Rodgers Finally... A true sound 🔊 engineer that can hear 👂 that there's a sonic problem. Just left a full comment on the distortion coming from a set of guitar 🎸 amps not muted. I'm truly debating A.) did the engineers for the performance understand what they were doing. B.) Was this comical relief :0) for the gospel performance dude (CR). C. Just a complete screw up from not paying attention & monitoring signals from the desk. Totally unacceptable 😡

[@andreasbreitwieser1449]

...typical high tuned clear 1-ply heads without a processed/eq´d filter.....

[@MrAVGNdude]

Man the drum tech is getting fired after this lol Calvin still killed it tho🔥

[@joshedwardsOTR]

It’s just the mic placement. You can see the Tom mics are printed straight down and they’re too close to the head.

[@morbidmanmusic]

@@joshedwardsOTR too loud, bad eq choice and mics could be back, but they are fine like that, they are 2 plus inches of the drum pointerd towards center.. , but that wasn't the biggest issue.

[@gabrielcortinas2521]

This guy is amazing! What was not was the sound quality.

[@angelhamskey2866]

respect Calvin Rodgers !! what's the song at 9mn42 please???

[@jeremysuppey2675]

Angel Hamskey All the Way by Fred Hammond

[@swflracing]

Yeah. That song encouraged me when I needed it. I listen to him playing it more than the real song now 😂. Love it love it

[@drizzythagod6730]

Am i wrong or is the main hihat/snare pattern a PAradiddle mixed with a para diddle didle every so often around the kit

[@chrisarmstead6031]

Calvin Rodgers doc you kill it man

[@chrisrayner2172]

Welcome to meinl !! Hope to see some videos

[@dariusmitchell8427]

@13:05 Who else forgot he was grooving becuase we was watching the HiHat work?

[@GingerDrums]

HUGE pocket, like room for a small semi detached house and a Semi truck.

[@jhonjhon3450]

Great drummer great sound from drum kit

[@harrisjohnson2118]

I love his workshop overall. I learned at lot however the toms sound a little to high to me. It might of been how they had them mic'd because it seem like they turned them down they seem like they were tuned right but Idk. Overall great workshop I loved it.

[@maxgourdet4197]

I would like to know if any drums instructor available to teach

[@drumprogram6511]

[@edplaysdrums8435]

Maaaaaaaan hes ON the click

[@madefrom9]

The mans skills are awesome but those tom toms sound horrible.

[@kingdomdrums2006]

madefrom9 agreed. That has to be a back line set. That is not his tuning lol

[@abgmusic4973]

I thought i was the only one!!!!! That floor tom sounds horrible!

[@Drumsta0904]

madefrom9 hoorrrrrrrrrible

[@wynton765]

It sounds like the mics are distorted.

[@teedrumz2019]

LOL i thought the same. they mustve let one the students tune them. doesnt look like his personal kit. That small ozone cant be his doing lol I follow calvin, he used the 18 0r 20 back when he was with SABIAN

[@lesibamalebana1854]

[@Danielvailmusic19]

Calvin so clean man

[@fabiobigmu-p9v]

[@Uberhawg]

From left to right, It looks like a HHX evolution 18 (I might be wrong), then 19 HHX X-treme crash (natural) and the same expect it's a 18.

[@kaylenpowell3864]

Does anyone know how to play that snare roll he does at 6:24?

[@elonkennedy985]

Andrew Hogue sounds like a paradiddle. don't ask me about the timing tho lol.

[@DREWSKIBOY1]

Elon Kennedy Im thinking its more along the lines of the 6 stroke roll. Just really clean and fast

[@elonkennedy985]

Andrew Hogue whoa yeah you're right!

[@DREWSKIBOY1]

Elon Kennedy Yea. That roll is amazing. He does that same roll on the recording of this song and I'm like what in the world was that!!??

[@elonkennedy985]

Andrew Hogue inspiration to practice man!

[@nelskudler]

Wow

[@jamesbryce9605]

Sounds like Tony Williams toms.

[@BonnersCreate]

Somebody please fix the kick mic.

[@musicswap5691]

Demarques Bonner it’s the floor Tom mic!

[@musicswap5691]

The kick sounds good to me. Maybe you hear something I don’t though but that floor Tom mic! 🤔

[@Drumminsince89]

All the drums sound like trash. Minus the snare.

[@BonnersCreate]

@music swap it's definitely the kick mic. HEADPHONES. check 15:11

[@emilsoderteg6809]

Why so terrible drum mix?

[@andrewalton1987]

You can tell it’s not one of his normal kits

[@EmperorsNewWardrobe]

7:35 nice phrasing

[@noelghallager4672]

Calvin's pocket is as solid as it gets. And man, they butchered his tom sound... sounds like the wrong mic choice. In any case, wow! Amazing clinic.

[@hilariousclinton81]

Why they do Calvin Like that. Those drums sound like straight ass! Minus the kick and cymbals. #drumsmatterlol

[@joshedwardsOTR]

Agreed, though it's not so much the drums themselves, but an incompetent sound engineer who doesn't know how to mic drums properly. Especially the floor tom mic is pointed straight at the bearing edge, and the other two toms mics are pointed only an inch or so away from the bearing edge instead of towards the center of the drum. Kick, snare and cymbals sound great, but toms are awful.

[@pesto9]

My goodness, that is some goddamn SPINETINGLING music/drumming.

[@jakehill2010]

Calvin really looks like Rex Hardy!

[@jamesbryce9605]

A monster.

[@shootsbraw]

Gavin Harrison is the white Calvin Rodgers

[@MikeyH1996]

those first two toms are tuned way too high man!!!

[@teddygrant5416]

Nothing wrong with the tuning....it's the crappy EQ...Calvin's toms are always on point.

[@sachaschutz1048]

Sacha

[@TancrediLoCigno]

4:45 fuck yeah

[@tyrone31877]

Tancredi Lo Cigno you can't use that kind of language for a gospel song!!!! Well.....maybe u can!! Lolol.
