First part of 3-16 hi-hat groove pattern. Download PDF: davidoromaner.com/wp-content/uploads/3-16-hi-hat-grooves-Drum-Set.pdf 3-16 simply refers to a grouping of three 16th notes. So for example, if we play continuous 16th notes in 4/4 time and accent every third sixteenth note we get an underlying pulse or phrase that resolves itself every three measures. This video demonstrates that idea by accenting every third 16th note on the high hat while keeping an underlying basic rock beat. Try counting out loud when practicing these exercises so you can hear the three note pattern in relationship to the time in four. The accents will always fall in this order: "downbeat", "a", "&", "e" creating an over the bar line 3 measure phrase. This video is a great introduction for this type of playing.
