Guitar Hero World Tour Might Just Help With Real Drum Skills
Video games sure have improved since the original days of Pong and all the old favorites of days gone by. Who could have imagined decades ago that a video game could be used to learn new skills?
Rock Band is not only a game that is exciting to do, but it has been said by Harmonix Music that if you can play the Rock Band drum set on the 'hard' setting, you should be able to play the drums for real! Question is though are you really playing the drums, or just following the pattern you see on the screen? If you are able to play along with the video game, that does not translate into the real world and does not mean you will be able to play a real drum kit. The real world of drumming requires the ability to read music, which is not taught in the game; fantastic coordination and rhythm. People that aren't able to read music you may never be able to be a professional unless you are musically talented and have the instincts to know what needs to be done. Bands today don't use electronic drums like were so common in the 1980's . A real drum kit gives you actual control over the sound of the notes, their length, volume and more.
At least your real drum kit will never need is Guitar Hero World Tour cymbal cable, as they don't have cables that are too short and breaks all the time.
The smallest drum setups are more difficult to play than the Guitar Hero or Rock Band drum set. For a non-musician, I'm sure the mental image of a real drum kit is a little scary! Ponder for a moment you're sitting behind a huge drum kit, knowing that you are responsible for setting the rhythm for your band and they all rely on you. If you're able to play professionally you might be a great drummer, but for a new musician even the Guitar Hero or Rock Band drum set can be too much.
Learning drumming starts with knowing have to keep the beat. If you can keep rhythm, can you play the drums? Not really. Good drummers need to add to songs with their creative touch as well as just setting the beat for everyone else to follow. You don't always notice the drums, but if you were to take them out of the song I think you would notice for sure!
So, can a video game teach you to play the drums? Probably not, but they can help you with the basics. Get comfortable with the drums through the Playstation game, practice counting to four, and you are on your way to stardom! Just don't forget to find a replacement Guitar Hero World Tour cable before it breaks!
