this guy takes 7 long minutes to say something which effectively takes him 30 seconds to demonstrate, but it's still worth watching.

this technique doesn't directly translate to the 500 due to 12 pads vs 16 pads but with a few small changes (say eliminating the entire right hand row of pads and just relying on the same hits which he duplicates on the far left hand side) it can easily work.

well consider me officially sonned!

i was tired when I wrote this and obviously came across as blunt/un-thankful - it certainly wasn't my intention.

sorry if you read this and thought "what the f*ck does this guy know?!?!"

i can answer you and say "not much"!

no hard feelings.

but mr. vitamin, you know that we are hungry for action. how about a little show-off in the beginning as a hook? and then the young, restless ADD generation will listen.
