Metheny is my idol. It's amazing how he keeps getting drummers like Paul Wertico, Sanchez and now Ballard who go way beyond having chops. As a sax player I must have had a pretty wise teacher in College. I had to practice all my recital pieces at 1/2 tempo and then do a performance of them to him before I could perform them full tempo. It was a pain , but I did get better as a result. Too bad I don't practice that method as much in business. Seems like in the web if your are not in "cut" time you just lose. Wow Dave great find.

It's funny, in the old days, faster tape speed caught more information. Are we drifting into quantum mechanics versus the laws of physics? How far do you think bit depth resolution will go? Also now we're up to 196K sample rate. Personally, I can't afford more than 24bit/48K. Now get to work on those polyrythyms..... So….it’s like drumming in 24 bit rather than 16 bit eh?
