Lesson objectives.
1. To be aware of straight and swung grooves
(Teaching objectives: to explain the difference between straight and swung. only play to 5:40)
Quantise to 8 and 8 triplet.
Question 1. Where can you count 3 and what is emphasising the swing?
Question 2. What Instruments are playing?
Question 3. Count the beats in the bar, What beat is the main emphasis on?
Question 4. What is the percussion doing in relation to the groove.
Question 5 What type of reverb is on the percussion; plate or spring?
Within logic create a swung rhythm and quantise it to the correct Value.
