The Pad – Exercise 9: Ghosts
This weekend is Halloween. It's only fitting that this week's pad exercise focuses on ghost strokes.

Mastering your dynamic control will allow you to make even simple beats sound great — and, the way you choose to express your dynamics defines your personal style as a drummer. Don’t let the dynamics happen by accident. Gain control!
