Re: it's being long

2008-05-17 by Nick Carroll

Yes I splashed out on Jack Bennett's UDS2007 DVD set, and the discs 
are crammed with lessons. Stuff I only half-learnt when I took up 
drumming years ago (a great way to revise the basics!) plus 
instruction that I never had before on playing various patterns 
around the kit. Very useful indeed!  And the best thing is being able 
to connect the audio-out from my PC straight into my DTX module: I 
can play along with everything Jack does and, at the same time, see 
on my PC monitor exactly how he is doing it. There are probably other 
good instructional drumming DVDs out there, but this guy really 
speaks my language. He doesn't waste my time trying to impress me 
with how well he plays, he just gets on with explaining how to do it. 
I think you would find having interactive feedback is not necessary - 
Jack explains everything extremely well and, if you miss something, 
you just rewind the disc and go over it again. And you can, in fact, 
email him with questions if you need to.
