Whop,

There are now eight notes to the bar, so all is well.
How you swing it depends on the music

Alright, so they are all eighth notes then. I will play around with it and most likely make up my own variations on the theme.

Whop, Dice, Amber

Thanks for the comments. Yep, I did added a couple of notes to make things work. This is a cool little tumbao that seems to fit depending on how you swing it. Also, once you get it, you'll realize you can modify it to work with a 3 drum setup pretty easily, which is what I do. Glad I could contribute for a change instead of just offering words :;):

Oo tsths oos otstOOtso
R r lr ll r l l r . rl rl RR lr l



Is it like this (divided into 4 bars) :

O-o-ts-t h-s-o-o- s-ot-st- OO-ts-o- ?

Hi CT,
thanks for the rhythm. It would be helpful to indicate the handing i.e RL
Are the triangles indicating heel/toe bass/fill? I'm not very familiar with that notation system.
cheers
