Stay tuned to see what
Thomas Lang has to say about
his new Drumometer!

"A great tool to measure your progress and build your speed and endurance."

"Wow...was I ever wrong! For whatever reason, I was under the mistaken impression that the Drumometer was most likely one of those one trick pony inventions, designed only for the type of drummer whose sole musical interest was just to play fast and faster. But since I started practicing with one and using it with my students, I now realize that the Drumometer is an unbelievably versatile learning and teaching tool. It not only helps develop speed, but it does so much more as well. It truly aids in developing finesse, endurance, relaxation, mental concentration, control over dynamics, evenness of strokes, proper hand and foot techniques, and it also does wonders for one's timing. On top of all that, it's a total blast to play with, and because it's so useful, well designed and fun, once you start playing with it, it's almost impossible to stop! When used in conjunction with the totally inspiring and enlightening "Insights" DVD, one can't help but improve their drumming skills. Bravo!!!"

"Fantastic!!!! I teach master classes at The Royal School of Music (Glasgow) most weeks and I actually took it in there to do some classes on it. Firstly, the Drumometer really becomes such a challenge for the individual but more than that.... it is a great tool for group teaching. Because everybody can measure exactly how they perform, it sets benchmarks for each and every drummer to match and better! I now take it to ALL of my master classes and workshops, and I do master classes every week in one part of the world or another."

"I think the Drumometer is a great tool to check your speed and control. I think everyone should look into it. Its a lot of fun!"

"The new Drumometer II is like any other hardware upgrade. It does more fun stuff. This device allows for more technique development because it includes a metronome and a 900 second counter great for warming up."

"The Drumometer is a very good machine!"

 

Jim Chapin
Legendary drummer, Author, & Clinician

"I'm delighted to have the Drumometer as a tool to progress as a musician and technician of my instruments. To focus on the evenness and consistency of one's playing is crucial, and to be able to log this in a systematic way is terrific. The Drumometer can be used for many different percussion instruments, not just snare or bass drumming, and therefore it is up to the musician to keep exploring its potential."

Dr. Evelyn Glennie
World Renowned Solo Percussionist & Clinician

"I was surprised and humbled by the Drumometer because it re-taught me a lesson. Relax !! when you play the drums. Relax when you want to play fast and hard. Don't tense up. The Drumometer will show you the way."

"The Drumometer is a great practice tool that will benefit everyone's playing, and as a retailer, will keep customers coming back into your store to try and better themselves. A great ego booster!"

Glenn Noyes

"At first, I must say I had no interest in the idea of who's the fastest drummer in the world etc. etc. But then I saw where the Drumometer can be useful as a working out device to keep a record of your hand's & feet's workout. Can you execute a difficult rhythm at a fast tempo for 20 minutes effortlessly & relaxed, or are you sweating & tense? I believe in your quote 'a drummer's ability & musicianship are not gauged by speed alone', and it brings to mind something Coltrane said once, 'To master your instrument is to eliminate any barrier between your hands and mind'. At any tempo, what ever you musically think, your hands can execute it! MAN, I just talked my self into practice! Where's that DRUMOMETER!"

"It was GREAT! That thing is really really good. I really enjoyed it a lot."

"After working with the Drumometer for just a short time, I began to already notice the improvement in my hands. I can just imagine what it can do if I were to use it on a daily basis. It will quickly show you the importance of having to relax while playing - something that I'm always drilling into my students. As a drum instructor I can't wait to introduce my students to the Drumometer and start incorporating it as a regular part of lesson time and practice time. The Drumometer will also be a great tool for strengthening the weaker limb and correcting bad habits i.e. students who use to much arm motion."

"THE DRUMOMETER IS THE BIGGEST PRACTICE MOTIVATOR I'VE EVER SEEN!
What a great idea! Now the visual learner can see which hand is slower and can take the necessary steps
to make his hands work evenly."

Charlie Herron

Kingsport, Tennessee

"I am the owner of Pensacola, Florida's only full time drum instruction facility. I'm writing to you because
I witnessed first hand the awesome potential of your invention - the Drumometer. I must tell you, I see this invention as an excellent teaching tool for the hands and for the feet."
