Rhythmic Transitions

 Rhythmic Transitions

One thing that drummers (and any musician) needs to be able to do well is anticipate and precisely execute differences in rhythmic note values.  More specifically, drummers need to be able to transition between a quarter note pulse, eighth note pulse, sixteenth note pulse, triplets, etc.  The following videos are a good step in training your ability to jump between some different rhythmic note values.

This page shows up at different stages of the BecomeADrummer.com's free lessons, so check which ones I reccomend doing at each stage:


Rhythm/Hand Training - #3:  Work on all quarter notes videos.  You would also be able to do 8th notes to 16th notes!
