    Been rewatching these, wish you would continue the series - I think you're maybe the only drummer also doing these at different levels. I would more on this that's controller agnostic - basically the why's, and focus on what overlaps or doesn't with traditional drumming. Such as - why use different pad layouts? When and how to use 16? Is there a time and place for pedals?

    Liam, I'd love it if you could extend these finger-drumming lessons into some intermediate and advanced techniques and patterns. There are a fair number of "intro" tutorial vids to finger-drumming (albeit not as good as yours) on YT, but much less material for intermediate and above. You're well-positioned as an excellent tutor with real drumming background (a huge asset to programming/finger-drumming rhythms).
    I'm curious where you'd go next, what you'd hit along the way. Feel & swing? Poly-metric beats? time-signatures beyond simple common time? Classic foundational beats for different musical styles/genres? I'd love help simply with more fills, honestly, since those feel hard (to me) to figure out and then figure in to finger-drumming.
    thanks, appreciate your generosity!

    I got a feeling the MPC gang is going to blow your channel up if you keep posting great drum tutorials like this. Really good stuff. It would be great if you could show some sort of notation or even just take sec to slow down some of the more complex patterns, as it’s a little hard at points to tell what beats each hit of the “shabadoos” is landing on.
