cascra with both hand - how it goes?

[Raymond]

Andre,

Hard to do but go slowly about it. First make sure you dominate the cascara with your main hand. (Get that out of the way and then try the "double'). Then continue "filling" the "gaps", to create that "double eighth notes feel"....Eventually, you will be able to do it fast and in the right tempo. (Get a sense of the sound you are supposed to do...Not always recommended, because there could be a possiblity that although you might get the sound you will do some beats the wrong way but is one of the best way to go about it)....

Don't be amazed about the amount of responses but sometimes the most simple things have the most complicated answers or way to do them....That gives you the idea that simple things should not be underestimated....

Saludos!

guys,
forgot to mentioned the other hand on top of the hembra on 2 and 4 beat. not to mentioned the side of the other paila.
..2...4. ..2...4. these are eight notes, ok. remember the first beat on top of the hembra is close. the fourth beat is open. on the fourht beat , you can strike both the ''fouth beat'' and the ''and beat'' like this ..>...oo of course there are other method for the left hand. my best, franc
