One Simple Exercise To Better Your Single Pedal Speed - Drum Lesson (Drumeo)

[@Yoyoman835]

Needed this big time! Single pedal speed will impress anyone who knows anything about drums and even those who don't. When you can play faster and more controlled single pedal than some guys can double pedal...you stand out.

[@crimsun7186]

It's only impressive when you can do it in softer dynamics. Everyone can play loud.

[@Yoyoman835]

+Crimson Sunrise That would make it more impressive! Having the speed and control single pedal is pretty impressive itself. If you've got the dynamics, and you can groove...you'll draw some eyes. Definitely.

[@franksarabia9579]

meeeee tooo this will be the next level for me !! luv it

[@ambroulard]

It’s a great exercise- I also recommend practicing a single note in place of the two notes so one note then 3 notes etc. and then going back and occasionally inserting 2 notes-- I found this was effective for building up faster and faster tempos by giving my leg more time to rest and recover.

[@knowyourenemy50]

this is an excellent example for those who think you need to do heel up or heel-toe to play fast. great that you're facile with both up and down techniques.

[@rolandgomes9675]

I agree with David Rogers And Gavin. Practice practice practice. Even one exercise! Because you build off of it. This particular single foot exercise is great because after you master it? at different tempos? It opens another door and another. Just keep opening the doors and master them. Just opens up alot of stuff you never thought you can play! Just work it!! You gotta love it you gotta live it.........

[@FusRoDah2]

I've got to be honest, this is the one channel that keeps me coming back to KZbin. Thank you guys for taking the time to bring joy into other peoples lives!

[@MattDeloff_Online]

Eric, your playing has always been crazy awesome. But man, you look incredible. Congrats on your new health my man.

[@stevefranchini4980]

Wow, this is one of the few Drumeo exercises I didn't have any problems with. Thank you for what you do!

[@HereIsmarcus]

led zepelin's communication breakdown has that foot pattern in it. I played along to it for a few weeks and got my foot speed right up. Never though about trying to up the tempo even more though. Thanks man.

[@Coastfog]

Yeah man, no short cuts ✌️ practice what you can already play, but *really* practice what you *can't* play.

[@judahenjoyseducation4549]

Good lord, Thank you so much for adding in that part with the heel down. I play heel down and Every drum tutorial I find hardly touches on it. Thanks so much

[@THEUNHINGEDSANITY]

Jared and the rest of the drumeo guys better watch out for their jobs. Eric's charisma is infectious and lessons are fun! haha. cheers.

[@rogerwelsh2335]

I find dropping my heal after the 1st gives me the 2nd hit. If I don’t tense up I can make consistent ghost notes on the 2nd hit doing this too. I struggled and struggled keeping my heal up high and just using my toes. My calf would cramp, I lost consistency and dynamics too. The key is to relax and keep you heal almost touching the peddle. Lift you leg to get your heal up a little and then just drop your heal as you use the upper half of the foot to strike. The key is to not tighten your calf or foot. Just relax and don’t let the adrenaline, speed or intensity of the music get you lifting your heal high. I don’t know it’s been working for me. I used to struggle with that 2nd beat you find in zeppelins Casmir. I couldn’t figure out how to do that ghost note type beat. This technique has gotten me there. I’m definitely going to be practicing this though.

Expanding this exercise to your other foot (if you have a double pedal) is great to get both feet in shape!

Playing correct and steady is the base of speed.When you know what you play and hold a ritme,speed will follow.

[@anttigeier3035]

I was wondering this exercise like this :o -For examble if you would have this comfy to play as 60bdm. -you would play this in 50bdm like as a warm-up/making sure that it goes right -20 seconds break -then speeding up to 60bdm and playing it for 2 minutes where you change back and forward from kkskkks to kkkskks regularly. -20 seconds break And last 2 minutes and 20 seconds you would play one half 65bdm (1min and 10 seconds) and other half/last half in 70bdm. Apologies if theres some grammar mistakes but i was thinking does this kind of exercise plan make any sense thank you for this video :)

[@SoundBarrierEntertainment]

What about your mallet height and tensions and distance setting on your pedal. can you explain your settings and such.

[@goseeaboutagirl]

I'd recommend a beater length that hits dead center on the head or slightly longer for good leverage and momentum. for me personally I also like a fairly loose spring tension so I train my foot and ankle properly and don't overly on a super tight spring, esp for doubles. gives you room to try out heel toe or slide. If you notice JoJo's and some other guys' springs, they're so loose the beater moves a few times back and forth if you slightly pull on the spring. Hope that helps! Pls lemme know if you have any Qs haha. Happy drumming 👍

[@dude6966]

Jonathan Han my foot was going like insanely fast about 2 weeks ago. I was able to play immigrant song and shit and now it has stopped working but my heel-toe is really good now... Didn’t change any pedal settings. What is happening.

[@rogerwelsh2335]

Spicy boi that happens to me if I get what your saying. For me bass drum playing varies. It’s the only part of the kit where I can be awesome one day and the next it’s just not happening. I’ve seen less and less of it than I used to but it still happens to me. One thing that helped me was to keep the spring tension as loose as possible, play more of the middle of the pedal and keep your heal really close to the floor and don’t lift your heal high. I don’t know if that is the right technique but it helped me

[@chessdude67]

Excellent! Thank you. Thumbs way up!

[@drhambone1598]

great video Eric I'll practice this technique

[@evolutionarybeing7660]

I think the type of pedals play an important role in your playing.I own an Alesis DM6 since I'm a beginner I thought it was better to start of with that.But a friend of mine has a mapex pedal and I found it way more easier and comfortable to play doubles and triples on it.

[@kingtosinthe3rd766]

It's really cool to meet other drummers my age, how long have you been playing

[@jamestorres9012]

Playin since 12 yrs, although i've taken drumming much much more seriously in May

[@minkusink6]

running sprints helps your speed, control and strength immensely

[@keelan4886]

how so?

[@minkusink6]

in many ways. running (not jogging!!) builds muscle super quick, which helps with control; and it helps build speed cuz you're moving your legs as fast as you can. this is why squats actually do not help that much with building speed for drumming, because you are still just standing in place. and make sure to eat the right foods after you run! :D

[@TakisT888]

Im able to play straight sixteenth notes with one foot at 105, but I lacked a lot of control. Hopefully this helps both speed me up even more, but also help me get some control of my spas of a foot.

[@nrichardevans]

If you don't have control at that speed its because its not comfortable yet. Start slower and just build up gradually. 2, 3, 4, 5 bpm more each time you feel comfortable. It will take time! Best of luck!

Does he bury the beater in the bassdrum when playing heel up?

[@aminadabguzman2]

Min 1:57 that was killin it

[@mick6915]

Can somebody help me? I never had drum lessons but I drum in a band for some time now. When I started to teach myself to play, I think I might have accidently taught myself to always synchronise my right hand strokes (hi-hat or crash) with my right foot. This means that I have lots of difficulty moving my right foot idependantly from my right hand. I now play a single-pedal double bass drum beat by hitting one additional stroke on the (for example) hi-hat, so that my foot automatically catches the extra kick on the pedal. Anyone else have this problem or have any advice?

[@DrShrimpTheOriginal]

Search lessons on drum independence.

[@mick6915]

Alright thanks!

[@amneenja5720]

Mick slowly do it, think it through until you can get it right consistently. then, feel the groove and build it up to a decent speed, with the help of a metronome. keep practicing independence stuff, and eventually you'll easily be able to play groovy stuff like its second nature!

[@shorpy3407]

Alittle late but I just started playing about a year ago and I had the same issue. Drumeo has some lessons on it, but what really helped me after that was learning how to play "All Right Now" by Free. One of the exercises I remember sounds like a Volbeat song. Kick, hi hat, snare, hi hat, kick, repeat. Idk that seemed to help immensely and it wasn't that hard to break it. I still on occasion synchronize hands and feet together but usually only when learning something new.

[@machete660]

I don't see why not, then you could practice this on both feet.

[@Olilolivier]

Yeah in my opinion you should start we both feet and then get into double bass

[@chindo88]

Yes, but before you begin to play the double bass, you must rub raw onions all over your feet and do yoga tantric breathing exercises.
