164 bars at 200 BPM -- fast, and 3:15 of it without a break -- on crash, ride, hi-hat, snare, high tom, mid tom, floor tom, kick and hi-hat foot.
52 out of 100, a step up from a first song, and the work is in the independence between the hands and the feet.
kick and crashes through bars 1-3, silence through bars 4-10, toms through bars 11-18, snare through bars 19-34, toms through bars 35-42 and hi-hat through bars 43-48, and 10 more changes after that.
The beat the song is built on is one bar, played through bars 19, 23 and 25, and 14 more places -- 16.1% of every bar the kit plays. This one moves around more than most: the beat is where to start, not the whole job.

200 BPM, in 4/4, with the time kept in thirty-second notes. At that speed the thirty-second notes are the whole difficulty, so the room will take it down to a quarter of it and climb back.
52 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 28 out of 100; the rest of the number is everything around it.
164 bars, about 3:15 at the written tempo. The course breaks it into 54 exercises over 16 sittings, about 26 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.
