97 bars, 5:12, at 73 BPM: slow enough that every note is exposed. Crash, ride, hi-hat, snare, mid tom, floor tom, kick and hi-hat foot and nothing else.
57 out of 100, a step up from a first song, and the work is in the independence between the hands and the feet.
hi-hat through bars 3-10, toms through bars 11-12, ride through bars 13-20, hi-hat through bars 21-28, ride through bars 29-36 and hi-hat through bars 37-45, and 7 more changes after that.
The beat the song is built on is a 2-bar phrase, played through bars 53, 56 and 76-77, and 6 more places -- 18.8% of every bar the kit plays. This one moves around more than most: the beat is where to start, not the whole job.

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.
73 BPM, in 4/4, with the time kept in thirty-second notes. Slow enough to hear every mistake, which is why the room lets you sit at the written tempo rather than under it.
57 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 39 out of 100; the rest of the number is everything around it.
97 bars, about 5:12 at the written tempo. The course breaks it into 42 exercises over 13 sittings, about 25 minutes each.
crash, ride, hi-hat, snare, 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.
