Triplet Short Fills
Because triplets are phrased in threes (as the name "triplet" implies), playing them in groups of two creates a syncopated feel. In the examples below, the toms change every two strokes (i.e. groups of two) within the triplets.
All of the examples use a high tom, middle tom and low tom pattern, but experiment with introducing new patterns to create new sounds.
