Well welcome to ultimate drumming calm. I'm Jim McCollum. I'm going to show you this really cool 12 eight beat. First I'm going to play it for you. Then I'm going to break it down note by note and show you how it works a 123123123 when finding the 12 eight time signature You gotta be counting the eighth note, there's going to be 12 eighth notes in a measure. Now I'm going to play the ride pattern on all the eighth notes.
So I'm going to be counting 12 eighth notes in a measure, it's going to go like this 1-234-567-8910 1112 1345 678-910-1112 12456789 1011. Well, that counting up to 12 can be a real mouthful, especially when you get into the numbers that have more than one syllable. So a shortcut would be to count 123123123123. Of course, knowing that it's going to take four groupings of three to equal 12 1-231-231-2312 3131 231231 and this 12 a beat the point this can be placed on beats one and three, seven in mine. I'm going to coordinate it together with the ride pattern, it's going to go like this 1-234-567-8910 1-234-567-8910 12 1-234-567-8910 1112 if I'm counting in groups of three, then the bass drum would go on beats one and three of the first grouping of three and then one and three of the third grouping of three. So I go like this 123123123123 1-212-312-3123 1-232-312-3123 now we're going to add the snare drum.
The snare drum has gone on beats four in beats 10, or the second grouping of three on one, and the fourth grouping of three on one, it's going to go like this 1-234-567-8910 1112 1-235-679-1011 12 1235612 to 3122 312-212-3123. Now once you get comfortable with that speed, we're going to pick up the tempo a little bit, and a smart practice to play a couple measures with the ride pattern on the hi hat. A couple measures with the ride pattern. wanna ride cymbal and switch back and forth, it's gonna go like this 1-231-231-2312 There you have it another excellent sounding 12 eight rhythmic pattern that you can add to your drumming library at ultimate drumming calm. I'm Joe McCall. Thanks for watching.
I'll see you as soon as ultimate drumming.
