Anyways, Ensemble this is the basic setup for a drum kit. ![]() The hi-hat usually somewhere to the left of the snare, with your left foot on the pedal. The bass drum under the tom or toms, with your right foot on the bass pedal. It tends to vary sometimes, I've heard stories of some proffesional drummers that place their hi-hat directly in front of the snare drum, so just find what suits you best. |

Some left-handed players set up their drums right-handed but play the ride cymbal with their left hand, they feel they have more control that way. There's also a left-handed technique called "open-handed", where you play the ride cymbal with the right hand and the hi-hat with the left hand.
However you start, you can always change your style around so it's really no big deal. |
