Any tips on how to do triplet and 16th note Bass drum beats? I'm currently trying to get a handle on triplet and 16th note Bass drum beats. I've tried to place my foot various ways and from using the heel raised and more of the front/ball of the foot I've mastered double triplets (rest + 2 beats).
But I can't get the triplet beats out or maintain consistent 16th note beats. Either my lower back or leg/hip tire out too quickly, or the beats will be either too fast or peter out. I also find that foot position doesn't always ensure a consistent pattern and speed.
Any tips for how to approach and practice on these two techniques? |
