I hope, my explanation helps ???

I've fixed so many of my students sense of rhythm with this system! Rules: Ta is always on the downbeats and Di is always on the &. Round 1: Clap on all downbeats while verbally saying the syllables. Round 2: Clap only one 2 and 4. Round 3: Replace claps with foot taps while playing instrument. The Syllables: Quarter Note = Ta Eighth Notes = Ta Di Eighth Triples = Ta Ki Da Sixteenths = Ta Ka Di Mi Quintuplets = Ta Ka Di Mi Ti Sextuplets = Ta Va Ki Di Da Ma Septuplets = Ta Va Ki Di Da Ma Ti 32nds = Ta Ka Di Mi Ta Ka Di Mi Quarter Note Triplets = Ta Da Ki

Awesome exercise Paul! I've been playing guitar for 32 years and I'm a performing musician and the better I get the more I'm realizing it's all about the RHYTHM in music! I put the metronome on 70 and I was able to do it on the 2nd try, which isn't bad. I think I'm going to incorporate this into my practice and make sure I nail this exercise. I've been working on quintuplets a lot lately as it's such a cool & different sounding grouping of notes & it's a fun challenge to keep increasing the speed with it. I'm actually considering writing a song in quintuplets as well as that would be totally different. Anyway, always great to watch your videos bro! I've been putting in about 4 hours every day practicing my lead playing for the past 2 months and I'm definitely enjoying the process as that is most of life. Thanks so much for all you do as it's great to watch your videos and learn from you as you are an AWESOME musician and seem like such a genuine person as well! You deserve all the recognition & having so many people subscribe to your channel! BTW I saw that your friend Rotem Sivan is playing at The Blue Note in NYC as I went there last night with some friends to watch some live music as John Popper (Blues Traveler), Paul Schaeffer, DJ Logic, and friends were performing.

I'm more of a guitar player than drummer, but I was taught this exercise on drums. There the object was to go alternately between hand and foot, stepping though the divisions. First the right hand and foot, then reversing to the right foot then hand. Then the same thing on the left side. The thing with doing no note value or staccato things to a metronome is to "bury the click". It's very easy for the brain to fool itself reacting near instantaneously thinking that it's simultaneous. If you can hear the click then you aren't on it. Another trick is to play in between the clicks. Start with playing quarters on the ands of the metronome. With no noise going on, you'll find it's much harder to keep together with the metronome. Then you can try playing quarter notes on the various "e's" of the count. The crazy good guys can go though this kind of quarter to triplet progressions against each sub division of the beat. That's how David Garibaldi comes up with some of his insane patterns. Now I'll have to try some of this on guitar. 8-)

A nice warm-up I like to do that is somewhere between Level 1 and Level 2 is to pick a left-hand position and play finger 1, 2, 3, 4 in quarter notes on the lowest string, then subdivide into eighth notes (11223344) on each fret of the next string, triplets on each fret of the next string (111222333444) and so on until you are playing sextuplets (111111222222333333444444) on the last string, then do it backwards, starting with 6 notes per finger/fret and ending with single quarter notes on each fret. Going backwards/slowing down is harder but sounds cooler.

They serve different purposes and are not interchangeable. The quotation marks used in the title for this video are correct, as Paul was quoting a title of a tweet by another person. Punctuation can be a nightmare, but that is no excuse to not get it right; or even worse, avoid it altogether.

Well, I'm a keyboardist. Playing this exercise is a bit different on the keys...you can play it as scales, or on a single note, which gives you a couple of different options - you can alternate between hands using a single finger on each, shifting to two fingers on one hand for the odd-numbered figures or sticking with alternating one finger on each hand, or you can play what's called a "single-note trill" (at least, that's what *I* call it...) where you use one, two, three or even four different fingers in succession on the same key. How hard this turns out to be is certainly related to how fast you're playing, of course - but if you spend some time learning how to do it, you can eventually work your way up to some fairly breakneck tempos. However, I think I'd rather just practice One Note Samba. ;-)

As you said it comes down to practice and for me as a drummer & guitarist it is quite easy to switch from binary to tertiary rhythms without counting it in my head most of the time I just feel it. HOWEVER I never played a lot of quintuplets and for me they feel neither binary nor tertiary rhythm. So when playing quintuplets I always start with counting 12312-12312... and so on in my head just to get into the quintuplet-feeling. After a while I can do it without counting but it never is just as easy to switch to quintuplets like it is to switch to triplets or sextuplets. Maybe this helps some people when they try to play this.

I did it every day for about a year and found it to be a great sort of centering excercise, if only because it's difficult to be thinking about other things going on in your life while you're doing it. :-) I still occasionally pull it out just for fun.

There were no quintuplets in the conservatory exercise, but we did do it with arpeggios for all the chords in a tonality, within a single position on the neck. Tricky stuff. This was the lesson from Leendert on Codarts if I remember correctly :) Very cool video, also the advice on slow bpm metronome practice is great, 30-40bpm, wish I'd started that earlier.

Love you videos Paul...most I don't even try. I am a hacker at strumming, just love watching people who are really good at what they do!
