Dogg when I saw this during prelims in the lot it was the most insane thing I've ever seen. It was literally a completely different league than what is here in Colorado. Thank you for this

[@difficultkill3r636]

Please do one of these again for some other licks or anything if really helps explaining what is best to do to push through it. I like these a lot!

[@Zackatar]

Haha now I've got more tips on cleaning the video I did but with the real version now! You're awesome, post more stuff like this please!

[@0Aquamelon]

I like how you made this *after* I figured out the quad feature by myself. (It took so long 😖😖) oh well, this is going to help

[@DrumlineAV]

Beats are sooooo tasty!

[@paulchoi1076]

can you break down the blue devils 2017 quad feature

[@Woodenrex-vl2tq]

Yes that would be lit

[@jordanharwood1920]

Did you add laminates to the pad? I have the same pad and am wondering what the difference makes

[@TheQuadMethod]

I tried it out a long time ago. I don't recommend, it's not worth the trouble. I thought it may help reduce friction a bit when doing scrapes. But after playing on the pad without laminate I found it works just fine.

[@averybondeson3322]

Would you recommend this pad? I'm thinking of buying it

[@TheQuadMethod]

Yes! Great chop out pad. For a more realistic feel you may need to add some laminate to it, but the build quality is solid

[@averybondeson3322]

@@TheQuadMethod Awesome thank you!! I'm either getting this or the Vic Firth Heavyhitter Quadropad Large

[@braedenmanalo6791]

I have a question. Did you help write this show? I thought this because when referring to the purpose of individual parts, you use the word "we".

[@TheQuadMethod]

The members have some input when adjusting the music. Quads typically have more freedom because of the arounds, so with this feature it was a combination of our tech's input and the members' input. It works very well, and allows us to make the book our own. It helps that Sean Vega was a tenor player and understands our need to adjust arounds when need be.

[@Dylan_T_]

Any chance that you’ll break down the part from the trumpet/tenor duet? I’ve attempted to transcribe and learn it before, but watching this opened my eyes to so many things I wasn’t even thinking about. Thanks for all the great work!

[@OneEyedKing710]

love to see more breakdowns

[@Allison_Chaynes]

Nice.

[@philipmartin1498]

Golleee!!!

[@razor1106]

what kind of pad are you using?

[@TheQuadMethod]

Prologix vortex pro! It's an awesome pad 😎

[@Jacob-wy3xx]

Are you gonna buy the new Tenor Kicks from Xymox?

[@TheQuadMethod]

Nope! Happy with the Prologix pad I currently have

[@therickster8020]

Crazyyyyy

[@jaycobpavlovic]

Did anybody else say "ugh" during the rest in the beginning

[@hectorcantu6023]

What sticks are those???

[@alexgaeckle1540]

Ms3's... good choice.

[@salvadorvilla7326]

Could you do some quad warmups?

[@TheQuadMethod]

Any suggestions?

[@salvadorvilla7326]

@@TheQuadMethod well. I was in band in high school, and was mainly a snare and timpani guy. Now that I have graduated, tenors or some thing a wish I would have gotten more into sooner. How about some basic stuff like triplet diddle, some Blue Devils stuff, or excersizes for cross overs and figure eights?

[@mylesragas5150]

Can you do a video on suicides

[@Ebidle]

That lot clip you stuck in there... holy shit... not a single rim

[@Tetrahedr0l]

So what is the hardest tenor break you’ve ever played

[@TheQuadMethod]

I would say it's between the 2017 BD quad feature and my junior year solo I wrote when I was in high school

[@ryanbishoop]

You're core

[@TheQuadMethod]

:(

[@philipmartin1498]

Golleee!!!!
