Nice groove again, Richard! I like the fill at the last 7/4 bar of the four-bar phrase starting here:Tracking with my beautiful yamaha maple customs. A fusion tune by my brothafumanuthamutha

For some reason I can't get the fill to meet the next '1'. I fall three sextuplets short. What am I missing?

Hi there again, thanks for your kind words. So I'm a big fan of parradiddle fiddles. Or at least they're comfortable for me. Basically, if I'm correct, the fill is made up of four parradiddlediddles with bass single drums in between the first and second. It starts on the last two notes of the triplets in beat 3 and goes RLRRLLB RLRRLLB RLRRLL RLRRLL. THE VOICING (oops I yelled) is the first two PDDls R=floor tom L= tom2 the RL on tom 2 and 1 the rest are on the snare. Pretty sure anyway. Try that and let me know. I wasn't thinking of it in the moment, just trying to do something that sounded ok and not get lost. Happy during. PS you can get mileage by playing the stockings your good at then stick in 1 or 2 kicks and voila, nice sounding and fresher sounding rudiments.Nice groove again, Richard!

I'm not great at reading drum tab but looks right. The accent is on the right I believe. Does that make sense?Ok, here's what I have from your comments:

Yes. Please refresh to catch my updates. Apologize for writing a thesis on your playing. LOLI'm not great at reading drum tab but looks right. The accent is on the right I believe. Does that make sense?
Yes indeed. I also like rlrllb as a series or rlrrllbb or rlrllb there really are endless combos.Ok, here's what I have from your comments:

All good. Glad you like it.Yes. Please refresh to catch my updates. Apologize for writing a thesis on your playing. LOL
Yep. Nice job!I'm not great at reading drum tab but looks right. The accent is on the right I believe. Does that make sense?
Thanks for sharing!Yep. Nice job!
I thought so too. The 12" tom is like a separate concert hall by itself. Just a bit to much gain on that one? Anyway, I'm glad someone had the courage to speak up. LOLOnly one tiny criticism - There's a bit too much low end mud in the two lower toms, and that prominence skews the kit balance a bit. Perhaps consider scooping those lows a touch to clean it up. The only reason I'm mentioning this is that everything else is so damn fabulous!
