TMEA 2024-25 snare etude "24", Dr. Brad Meyer (performer)

[@Its_CircleZ]

Truly, thank you so much for making all of these videos! I'm a senior in high school and have been watching them all for the past 4 years. The JamTracks and the tips are all super helpful. Yesterday my audition went the best it ever could (Wind Symphony and qualified for AREA) and it's thanks to you!

[@OdieDrums]

Thank you for the kind words! I'm so glad they were helpful for you!! Way to go on your audition!!!!!

[@stormhypertusk5055]

I am having so much trouble with the 32nd notes also thanks for putting this video out - love from klein collins

[@OdieDrums]

I have my "helpful tip" videos coming out soon, and the one on "feel/groove" will hopefully help you with the 32-note section. For now, I would recommend and pulse to the 8th-note and mark in your part where all the quarter-notes pulses are in those sections. Hopefully, that'll help! Best of luck on your preparation!!

[@BradMeyerPickleball]

Does anyone have a timestamp for the end of measure ten I keep getting lost😂

[@Mekaels_Music]

This will be fun to learn. for sure.

[@adamb6680]

Really enjoying these recordings, any advice on software or apps that could slow it down? Perhaps to be played at 1/2 speed.

[@chro.]

youtube has this feature

[@adamb6680]

@@chro. It does but anything slower then .75 gets distorted and hard to follow. Looking for a clean recording.

[@OdieDrums]

If you go to the “gear icon” (top right on a phone, or bottom right on a computer) you can select “playback speed” and adjust it as you need. Hope that helps!

[@samstevens2108]

What snare drum/heads did you use?

[@OdieDrums]

Yamaha 5" x 14" CRS Series with Evans Strata Staccato 1000 on top and Evans Orchestra 200 Snare Side. Best of luck on your auditions!!
