| What I should be working on? |
We'd love to help you answer that question, but we need some info from you! Head over to the Curriculum Thread and tell us your background and some of your goals. The more our staff and community know about you as a drummer, the more we can help you build a path towards becoming a better one.
You can also try working through some of Adam's Learning Paths!

| Where do I stream Practice Loops? |
Click here to visit the Loop Library. Here, Members can stream all Loops for free. This is not to be confused with the Loop Store. The store is where you purchase Loop Packs that you'd like to download and own; usually for the purpose of doing a drum cover. Remember, you can use the ODTV App on iOS and Android to download loops offline, so you can jam the library without internet.
| What are Masterclasses |
Masterclasses are long format video lessons, averaging 45 minutes in length. These lessons include as many as 12 exercises, and are for drummers of all ages and skill levels. Masterclasses cover a wide variety of topics that require a bit more time to explain and understand. The name Masterclass implies the level of depth that we study; not necessarily the difficulty of the content. Masterclasses range from extreme beginner, to much more advanced.
| What are Lesson Packs? |
Lesson Packs include 5 to 10 separate video lessons, covering a specific topic or skill set. (Grooves, Fills, Rudiments, Career topics, and more.) Lesson Packs make it easy to learn things “one at a time” rather than taking on a larger musical concept. You can also use Lesson Packs to test your skills and determine what areas of your playing that might need work. Lessons Packs are edited and constructed much like Adam's YouTube Lessons, but a bit slower paced.
| What are Single Lessons? |
Single Lessons are 10 minute drum lessons covering a variety grooves, fills, licks, and chops. These are your “rainy day” lessons. No heavy concepts; just quick explanations of the material, from an overhead view.
| How can I watch content without internet? |
Easy! Download the ODTV Mobile App. Once logged in, you'll have the option to save content offline, and you can playback this content anytime you'd like; with or without internet.

| How I do restore my Loop Purchases? |
Click the footer link at the bottom of this website that reads "Loop Restore". You'll be taken to a contact form. Fill out the form requirements, and we will restore your previously Purchased Loops on the new platform within 72 hours. You no longer have a "My Purchases" page as you did on the old website. Purchased Loop Packs are made accessible directly from the store page, and you may stream or download purchased products instantly from there.
