184 bars of 6/4 -- not four -- at 170 BPM, 5:41 of playing on crash, ride, hi-hat, snare, high tom, mid tom, floor tom, kick and hi-hat foot.
47 out of 100, a step up from a first song, and the work is in the independence between the hands and the feet.
snare through bars 1-4, ride through bars 5-7, snare through bars 8-10, ride through bars 11-13, silence through bars 14-28 and hi-hat through bars 29-36, and 17 more changes after that.
The beat the song is built on is a 2-bar phrase, played through bars 29-31, 33-36 and 89-91, and 3 more places -- 15.6% of every bar the kit plays. This one moves around more than most: the beat is where to start, not the whole job.

It cuts the song into 49 exercises -- the grooves, the fills, and the joins between sections, which is where players actually come off -- and puts them in the order a teacher would. Each one opens on a reduction you can already play and adds the notes back a rung at a time, with a tempo to reach and a gate to pass before the next.
170 BPM, in 6/4, with the time kept in sixteenth notes. At that speed the sixteenth notes are the whole difficulty, so the room will take it down to a quarter of it and climb back.
47 out of 100, a step up from a first song, and the work is in the independence between the hands and the feet. The beat itself is 36 out of 100; the rest of the number is everything around it.
184 bars, about 5:41 at the written tempo. The course breaks it into 49 exercises over 13 sittings, about 27 minutes each.
crash, ride, hi-hat, snare, high tom, mid tom, floor tom, kick and hi-hat foot. That is most of a full kit; the part moves around it rather than sitting in one place.
