How to Find Good Drum Tabs

Video Transcript

"How to find good drum tabs? This is what good drum tabs look like. They are incorrect musical notation. They actually have notes with basses and stems on them. They have proper time signature. These are tough to find. Here's another example of good drum tabs. The best places to find good drum tabs are not on the major websites that have tabs for every instrument but actually on the website of someone who is a fan of a particular band and really likes transcribing. So, a transcription like this is going to be much better than what you'll find on a lot of sites where people just upload tabs for every song that they heard of that they ever played on drums. If you get poor drum tabs the problems will be number one, they won't be nearly as easy to read as these are. Number two, it's going to be harder to learn the music because the time signature may not be right. The timing may not add up properly. So, good drum tabs are basically transcriptions. It's actually better to search Google or whatever search engine you use for song, band name and drum transcription instead of drum tab and you are much more likely to find items like this rather than basic drum tabs written on notepad."
