"Here, I'll demonstrate playing dotted quarters on a snare over the ride symbol pattern. Now dotted quarters over four-four time, which I'll keep the time between my bass drum and the high hat. One, two, three, four. And that with dotted quarters. Now what we're going to do is we're going to take the ride symbol pattern of swing and we're going to play these dotted quarters over that. One, two, three, four."
