Rock Band Shows People How to Play The Drums
Video game consoles have really advanced since we first played Pong, PacMan and all of the other classics. Who could have imagined decades ago that computer gaming would be used to teach new skills?
Guitar Hero is one video game that is fun to do, but it has been said by Harmonix Music that if you can play the Rock Band drum set on the 'hard' setting, you can pretty much play the drums for real! But really are you really drumming, or just copying the pattern you see on the screen? If you are able to play along with the video game, that does not translate into the real world and does not mean you will be able to play a real drum kit. To play real drums you need to be able to read music. which you won't learn playing a game; excellent coordination and rhythm. If you can't read music you may never be able to be a professional unless you are musically gifted and able to hear what to play. Bands today don't use electronic drums like were so common in the 1980's . Real drums give the musician more control over the volume, pitch and duration of the drum note and cymbals.
At least your real drum kit will never need is Guitar Hero cymbal repair cable, because there are no cables that are so badly made that they always break.
Even a basic drum kit is far more complicated than the Guitar Hero or Rock Band drum kit. For those wanting to make the switch, I'm sure the mental image of a real drum kit is a little scary! Imagine sitting on stage with your drums, knowing that you are responsible for setting the rhythm for your band and they all rely on you. If you get to that point you are obviously a good drummer, but for a novice even the Rock Band drum kit can be too much.
The basics of playing the drums is as simple as keeping the beat. So being able to tap your feet means you're a drummer? Not reality, no. Great drummers should add to songs with their skills as well as just setting the rhythm for everyone else to follow. You may not always think about the drums, but if you were to remove them out of the song I think you would notice for sure!
Can GH World Tour games actually teach how to play drums? Doubtful, but it can't hurt to practice. Learn drumming basics through the Playstation games, practice your counting out the beat, and you will be starting your one way journey to the top! Make sure you pick up a new Guitar Hero World Tour cable before one breaks!
