68 bars at 180 BPM -- fast, and 1:31 of it without a break -- on crash, hi-hat, snare, high tom, mid tom and kick.

silence through bars 1-15, snare through bars 16-24, hi-hat through bars 25-28, snare through bars 29-32, hi-hat through bars 33-36 and snare through bars 37-40, and 5 more changes after that.
The beat the song is built on is one bar, played through bars 18-20, 22-23 and 58-60, and 2 more places -- 24.5% of every bar the kit plays. This one moves around more than most: the beat is where to start, not the whole job.

68 bars, about 1:31 at the written tempo. The course breaks it into 10 exercises over 3 sittings, about 24 minutes each.
crash, hi-hat, snare, high tom, mid tom and kick. That is most of a full kit; the part moves around it rather than sitting in one place.
