Also, head over to the Transcription Library in the General forum to get my transcription of the entire book.

Anyway, it doesn't look like a hard fix, just go back to playing eights for a bit and focus on really making the sticks straight.

for your left youre gonna have to put your right stick vertical to the pad, and just play lefts all day long and not hit the stick, then do doubles with your left and not hit the stick etc.

Also, there's an error in the opener transcription, too, but again, too lazy to change it.

i dont know...i guess im overly critical of myself and expected more stuff wrong than what was said about the slicing, i always think im doing something wrong and i always see other people play and think theyre much better than i am even if i can play what theyre playing...wierd

from what i can tell, if you have any sound quality issues then it should be fixed by fixing that slice. post another vid after youre done fixing the slice and we'll be happy to give more feedback.
and also try playing other styles of music like BD/ RCC choppy stuff to see what you can do.

btw, Im asking for constructive critisim b/c i want to become the best I can be...so i dont mind at all for people to just open up and tell me whats wrong, its better to learn now and fix it before auditions then to learn at auditions.

A/T = accent to tap. so basically your tap and accent heights. but you usually start with the biggest problems then start refining. cause when you teach somebody, you dont spit everything out all at once or they will have a hard time fixing everything at once. but if you give them one issue at a time, then they can focus on that one problem and get it dont then move on to the next one instead of multi-fixing all the problems at once. know what i mean?
