Re: rim shot

[Robert Schmaus]

Actually, I (not a drummer as well but a bassist, so close enough ...) would 
suggest not to translate this at all. I've never played with a dummer (german 
speaking) who didn't call a rim shot "rim shot". I've never heard of a 
"Randschlag" or indeed any German word for this percussive element ...
