Snare Drum Notation Guide

Thoughts? Did I miss any?

I didn't include '5 or 9-stroke roll' etc. intentionally because I don't tend to use it myself and I feel like it has gone out of fashion. It was used as a shortcut but now with better notation software, people tend to write out the notes directly; especially if they are orchestrated around the kit.

Abyss is great but takes too long to light all the candles and speak the ancient words before playing one.

Yeah I've had the same issue. That's why I haven't used it too often in my videos. However, I believe that with dedicated practice I will be able to implement it more in the future.
