I love that I grew up drumming 10 years before I heard of controllerism :}

helps with with beat matching and making sure your cues are on beat and what not

This video was great, could you do more in sense of timing? Particularly internal clocks... They screw me over evey time

it was super hard to actually hear the click track in the studio- so I was having a hard time talking, keeping the script in mind and following a tiny click all at the same. Extra challenging! :)

"Make sure you're breathing" Ohh, thank god he said that.

another great thing you can do is just double the grid of the track and activate the quantization...if you want more you can do it 4 times the original so this is 2*2....the quantization will work perfect for you as well...

What's the maximun latency "allowed" to do this extreme controllerism while staying in time?

no matter what type of music you listen to it always goes by a count of 4. if you know how to read sheet music everything is seperated in measures of 4. i understand the concept in which your wondering because i have wondered the same thing. i always push to be different in my sets and sometimes you just have to give into the basics.

a great way to practice the 16th with crab fingers (or walking) is playing paintball (walking the trigger)

I noticed the drummer used the musical esoteric term "Triplets" which they are not. In general terms....TRIPLES they may be, but a true "triplet" (with equal value) is ddd, ddd, ddd, ddd [123/223/323/423] (examples: "The Way You Make Me Feel"/"Everybody Wants To Rule The World"...et.al.) The so-called "triplet" pattern he actually described is: d*dd, d*dd, d*dd, d*dd which in reality, is a 16th note without the "e' when counting "1-e-and-a-" in each beat. I would LOVE to do a presentation on DJ rhythm pattern identification and how to really capture that recurring pattern visually, and how DJ's can utilize that visual to identify such patterns and layer those patterns for 'tighter' mixes. I would start with the high hat focus because there is so much up there.... and it's a homogeneous texture. Silver, chrome, metal, and steel is easy to hone in on. Open/close high hat, staccattos, triples (d.dd...or dd.d) Love to do this with a premiere DJ. I don't have the facility. Can anyone assist me? (hmu on facebook: Mark DJ Zimmer) I was a DJ in the 70's that was first to use BPM, musical identification....and then rhythm pattern matching technique.
