Are you facinated by one hand drum roll? then you must learn how to do a one handed drum roll. It is not at all very difficult if you apply the correct technique. There are two techniques commonly referred to as a hand roll, and should not be confused.

1. The first uses the drum rim lift the stick until the tip touches the drum head on both the Hand's Up and Down Swing Swing. This technique has limited use, it should be carify from the start that because this type with one hand drum roll is what this page is devoted. The second type of deployment uses the ability of the fingers to move fast enough to allow you to play a driving with one hand. And that's what we learn here.

2. The secret of the one handed drum roll is to use your middle finger, ring, ring and little fingers to propel the drum stick in quick successive movements. You can usually move those fingers a lot faster than your wrist or arm, and use less effort to do so.

3. To make the drum, you hit the drum with one hand using the handle matched. After bouncing the drum sticks for the first time, use three fingers to push the stick in extra quick rebounds. The fingers will be assisted by slight movements of the wrist, but do not use the power of your wrist or you will not be able to bounce the stick as fast as you wish.

4. With your finger, push down the lever. You can begin to practice these drumming by setting your metronome to 80 beats per minute and 4 beats per measure. Perform a roll 8 rebounds (eight sixteenths) in the first half measurement (from 1 and ending right before the click of the metronome 3rd), and rest for the second half of the measure. Repeat several times of course, and the use of a single hand at a time. And as always, if it feels too difficult, slow, and if it feels too easy, speed it up. Practice also longer (more shots) rolls.

It is very important to master this type of movement at the beginning of your career as a drum students, as it has many uses which do not fall within what is considered a drum roll, but the motion is the same. For example, you can use for fast play on the hi-hats and cymbals. Once you learn it, you'll see that you are using more and more in your everyday drumming.
