FDP Forum / I'd Hit It! - Drums and Percussion / Drumming dynamics

flatdog US	Jun 26th, 2010 02:25 PM   Edit   Profile   Print Topic   Search Topic I use a drum program (Jamstix)and I am just starting to use a volume envelope in Reaper. I'm not a drummer but I do realize drummers don't play at the exact same volume throughout a song. And don't play all drums equally during dynamic changes. I know there are a million variations, but for a standrd rock song with verse and chorus, just as a starting point what should an envolpe look like. I can guess the obvious - chorus louder than verse but do drummers typically swell the end of the verse? Does the chorus start strong, diminish a little and then swell to a big end? Do they emphsize the cymbals and keep the kick and snare the same volume? Again I know there are a million ways, but for a standard top 40 pop/rock song what would a drummer typically do? Sorry if this seems like drumming 101.
