How to Play Mijam Drums
- 1). Play solo to acclimate to the sound buttons. Plug a pair of headphones into the Mijam control puck. Press the buttons on the sticks toward or away from you as you whip the sticks to a sudden stop in the air. One stick can play a Tom-tom drum or cymbal sound. The other stick offers bass drum and high hat with a side button to throw in a drum roll for a break.
- 2). Play along with a rhythm track. The Mijam unit has a rhythm track that can be adjusted for slow or fast tempo. You can hear the track through headphones plugged into the Mijam along with the sounds you create by whipping the sticks through the air.
- 3). Play along with your favorite band. Use recordings on an MP3 player or any other music reproducing device that offers a 1/8-inch headphone port. Plug the 1/8-inch jack from the Mijam into the headphone outlet on the music player. Plug headphones into the Mijam. This brings the music in through the headphones along with the sounds you make with the Mijam sticks.
