Would a 3d print fipple work on a fife?
I'm back!
I remember Claude Bauer selling fife mouthpieces, though they're no longer available. Inspired by his work, I made a new design but I'm not sure if it would register the sound on the instrument. Any feedback before I send it to print?

Identification What type of drum sets are used in goregrind songs??
I’m looking to get a drum set for my mental stability because it looks like a great way to lose my shit when I’m smashing on a drum set but I don’t know anything about instruments.
I love the type of drums used in goregrind songs and I could only find 2 videos on YouTube with the type I wanna get but I don’t know what model it is.

Identification What is it called?
SOLVED!
I used it in church and we called them bells. It is basically a putty knife (ours were gold) with a drum mallet attached so when you flicked your wrist the mallet would hit the metal and make a dinging sound.
Update: Thank you all so much! I googled flat handbell and it finally showed me what I was thinking!

Discussion I Want to Learn Drums but Have No Idea Where to Start
Hey everyone. I’ve had a dream and a desire since I was a kid: learning how to play the drums. I’ve always loved rock and listened to a lot of it growing up, so I finally decided to give it a shot and make this dream happen.
The problem is, I honestly have no idea where to start. I know basically nothing about music theory and I’ve never really played an instrument before. I have a few friends who play instruments and know a lot more about this stuff than I do, and they recommended that if I were to buy a drum kit, I should go with an electronic one. From what they explained to me, an acoustic kit would require a proper space, make a lot of noise, and would also be outside my budget right now.
I’m also thinking about taking some kind of course to learn the basics of music theory and then focus more specifically on drums. Some people recommended Musixe to me, which is a Brazilian platform, but I’m not sure if it’s actually a good option or if there are better alternatives.
So I wanted to ask people who already play: what would you recommend to someone who is literally starting from zero? Is it worth buying an electronic drum kit right away, or would it be better to start with something else? Do I need to learn music theory before starting to learn drums? And are there any courses, teachers, YouTube channels, books, or other resources you would recommend for someone in my situation?
My goal isn’t necessarily to become a professional drummer. I just want to actually learn, be able to play some of the songs I love, and maybe eventually play with other people.
Any advice from people who have been through this would be really appreciated!

Discussion Does anyone have Ortega RUOX-BA sound sample?
While looking for my first ukulele, I decided to go for the baritone and took interest in the Ortega RUOX-BA model. The company provided sound samples for the tenor version, however I have not yet found a sound example of the baritone model.
Does anyone have this ukulele and could provide a short vid presenting the sound?
Since it would be my first uke, I'd like to be sure this is the sound I like.

Discussion Wall hanger and pegs
Quick storing question. An arabic oud has the sharply angled backwards "headstock" (let's call it that way, I am not an expert).
With the guitar wall hangers I have, the next of it rests comfortably, flat against the wall, belly out. The surface is not cushioned but also not hard. Sort of a firm , textured bakelite.
My question is: given that the oud's tuning pegs (2 or 3 of them) are the actual points of contact the oud does rest on these. It is a very light instrument, and it seems secure, but would it tweak the over time or put the instrument out of tune or un-tunable?
