60 bars, 3:15, at 72 BPM: slow enough that every note is exposed. Crash, ride, hi-hat, snare, high tom, floor tom, kick and hi-hat foot and nothing else.
45 out of 100, a step up from a first song, and the work is in the independence between the hands and the feet.
silence through bars 1-4, kick and crashes through bars 5-12, hi-hat through bars 13-20, toms through bars 21-24, hi-hat through bars 25-32 and ride through bars 33-36, and 3 more changes after that.
The beat the song is built on is one bar, played through bars 33-36, 45-47 and 49-51, and 2 more places -- 23.6% 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 20 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.
72 BPM, in 4/4, with the time kept in sixteenth notes. Slow enough to hear every mistake, which is why the room lets you sit at the written tempo rather than under it.
45 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 20 out of 100; the rest of the number is everything around it.
60 bars, about 3:15 at the written tempo. The course breaks it into 20 exercises over 6 sittings, about 24 minutes each.
crash, ride, hi-hat, snare, high 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.
