Drum Set (or drum kit or trap set is a collection of drums, cymbals and other percussion instruments arranged for convenient playing by a percussionist (drummer), usually for jazz, rock, or other types of contemporary music.

History of the Drum Set

A drum set from the player's perspective, showing a crash cymbal, hi-hat, high tom-tom, ride cymbal, snare drum, floor tom-tom and bass drum. Developed in the United States, early drum sets were known as trap kits (short for contraption) and usually consisted of a bass drum, a snare drum on a stand, a small cymbal and other small percussion instruments mounted on the bass drum or a small table, all played with drum sticks or brushes except for the bass drum. The bass drum was sometimes kicked to produce a sound, and is occasionally still called a kick drum, though bass drums are now nearly always pedal-operated, and sometimes even played with two pedals to allow for greater speed. The term - Trap set survives in the term trap case still given to a case used by a kit drummer (or any percussionist) to transport stands, pedals, sticks, and miscellaneous percussion instruments other than drums and cymbals.

Modern Drum Sets

The exact collection of components to a drum kit varies greatly according to musical style, personal preference, financial and transportation resources of the drummer. At a minimum a kit usually contains a bass drum sitting on the floor and played with a pedal, a snare drum on a stand, two or three tom-toms, some of which are mounted on top of the bass drum and the largest typically free-standing alongside it (on the floor - hence the word "floor tom"), a hi-hat (sometimes known as a 'sock' cymbal) comprising two small cymbals played by means of pedal with the left foot, a ride cymbal and a crash cymbal arranged on stands on the right and left.

Playing position

The drummer generally sits with the snare drum between the legs, the left foot on the hi-hat pedal and the right foot on the bass pedal. A left-handed drummer will usually have the drum set horizontally inverted. The drummer will usually play with sticks, but may also use brushes, mallets, hands, or any of a variety of "multi-rod" sticks.

Drum Set additions and variations

Some drummers may add a second bass drum (played by the left foot), additional toms, more cymbals, tambourines, woodblocks, cowbells, electronic pads that trigger sampled sounds, or any of a whole galaxy of accessory instruments. Some drummers, such as Billy Cobham, Neil Peart, Terry Bozzio, Keith Moon and Mike Portnoy have gone to extreme lengths and built massive drum kits including features such as ranges of tuned tom-toms, allowing them to contribute melodically as well as rhythmically. These huge sets reached their peak in the arena rock of the 1980s, and the trend since then has been towards a smaller drum set configuration.
