Drum charting difficulty guidelines

So PS2 customs are now possible, I'm working on one right now that I can actually test in game. I'm looking for suggestions on guidelines for how to chart different difficulties for drums; I haven't spent much time on anything other than expert since I've been playing the game so I'm not sure what the best ways are to make it easier for the other difficulties and still make it fun. Any thoughts?

On Hard, simplify bass pedal beats and rolls across the pads.

On medium, there should be few to no off-beat bass hits and the rolls across drums should be simplified to one hit per drum
On easy, all bass hits should be on a major beat and should either have an accompanying note or should have plenty of space. Also, keep 'chords' to a low unless doing a pattern like Y-RY-Y-RY-Y-RY-etc
