1, if you use it at ordinary times, the placement of drums is actually a very free thing, so you should use your most comfortable way to place them. However, it should be noted that the height of the drum pedal should ensure that you can pedal comfortably when sitting on your hind legs, which is probably a little more than 90 degrees between your calf and thigh.
The height of the snare drum should be the most comfortable height for playing snare drum. Different people have different habits. If it is too low, your arm may touch your thigh when you hit little snare drum. If it is too high, your arm can't be relaxed when playing the snare drum. And whether the snare drum is flat or slightly inclined varies from person to person.
2. If you are performing on the stage, first of all, you should make sure that it is the way you usually practice, and make sure that you usually feel the same way when performing and practicing. In addition, the drums should be behind the stage and the guitarist and bass singer should be in front of the stage. If possible, you can set up a table about half a meter high and put the drum on the table.

How to maintain drum sets?
1, drum installation and surface maintenance
Wipe all parts of the bucket before filling it, such as sweat, water, beer or other liquids, which will shorten the life of your bucket. The oil on your hands will corrode the surface of the wok and make it lose its luster. When assembling or disassembling the drum, you only need to wipe it with a towel, which can play a protective role.
Check all parts to make sure they are installed well. The cymbal gasket should be replaced frequently to ensure that the cymbal wire fixing the cymbal piece can be screwed on the cymbal frame well. Places that need regular exercise, such as stepping on the pot rack and the mallet pedal, should be lubricated every once in a while to maintain a good state of exercise.
2. Keep the drum skin elastic
"Lower drum skin" can generally be used for a long time, but "upper drum skin" is not necessarily. If possible, we suggest that you can change the "upper drum skin" frequently to maintain its elasticity and good feel. Often using worn-out drum skin will not only have no timbre, but also ruin your feel, which is very terrible.
Step 3 tune the drum
There is no need to emphasize this point, because it is too important. We have heard a lot of people playing very ugly sounds on a 10,000-yuan drum. This is because the drum set has not been carefully adjusted.
At this time, it is necessary to use the drum key to adjust the tightness of each drum screw. In fact, there is a similar relationship between drums and scales, and the sounds made by hitting different parts on the same drum surface are different. To achieve complete balance, it is best to let professionals debug it, and don't just debug it yourself to prevent the drum head from cracking too tightly or too loosely.
4. Maintenance of frying pan slices
The best way to maintain cymbals is to try not to hold cymbals directly with your hands at ordinary times, and you'd better wear gloves when moving cymbals. If you touch the cymbals to stop the sound, you should quickly wipe your fingerprints with a dry cloth after the performance. It must be a dry cloth.
Because everyone's hands sweat, several elements in sweaty hands are corrosive, and water is an absolute killer. After a long time, the water and oxygen in the air will gradually turn into green copper oxide, which is what we call patina.
5, the correct tapping method
The beating of drum set should have a standard posture, strength and scope, which is not only helpful for learners to improve themselves, but also an important matter for drum set maintenance. The intensity of the attack should be controlled to conform to the artistic conception of the track. If it's just a heavy blow, it will become an outlet on the drum group, with unpleasant sound and great damage to the drum skin.
The sound produced by different tapping positions on the drum surface is different. Learning to control the intensity and range can make music have a sense of hierarchy and rhythm, which plays a vital role in the maintenance of drums.
