Video Transcript

"On behalf of Expert Village my name is Pat Louis. Here in Miami I'm going to show you today how to set up a drum kit. Now what would a drum set be without Tom Tom's well you have to have a place to anchor them so these are the holders for the Tom Tom's. They go into a section right here on the top of the bass drum. Now you can angle them anyway you like of course it's nice if you have them towards you so that the bass comes, the Tom Tom will be sitting there in front of you. Then they will lock into place you'll notice that there is a certain shape that you can actually adjust it to either an angle closer or away from you. You want to give yourself a little room so that when you put the Tom Tom's on there they will be separated not touching and not to far away from each other. So that's the key there you'll lock them into place and your all set to go once they are in place. Now you do have a key a drum key which is very important to the tuning of the Tom Tom's as well as setting up the actual position of the Tom Tom's, as you'll see when we put the Tom Tom's on the holders."
