— Practice Path

The hat opens

Open the hi-hat with the foot and close it on the beat: on the 'and' of 4, then a bark at the end of every bar with the kick moving, then open on every 'and', the disco hat. By day 5 the bark moves onto the 'e', a sixteenth after the beat. The beats sit at the top of novice, so take the time it needs. A song to play along with every day (three tracks).

This path is self-guided practice: each day you work against a reference the app plays and judge your own progress. DrumShed does not listen to your playing, score your accuracy, or measure your timing. Enrolling is an All Access feature ($5.99/mo, or lifetime with Founding Member); free members can browse the whole plan in the app first.
