Alternating right hand and right foot is killing me!

[S100Headache]

I can go really fast when my right hand and right foot are going together, but when they alternate, I find myself fighting my foot. The more constant this beat, the worse I do.

I can 5-star Humanoid and almost 5-star Thrasher (no thanks to the fills), but anything faster and I drop dead. Unfortunately, a Pro Drums lesson ("Toms of Doom") is faster and is preventing me from unlocking my underwear.

Simply put, you're looking at a limb independence issue here. The only thing you can do is keep at it and eventually it'll click. Practice at slower speeds and work your way up.

Take something like Toms of Doom and do it at 100bpm a few times. Then bump up the bpm until you start struggling, and practice at that bpm and the bpm below it until you can 100% the bpm you were struggling with.

Then, repeat the process, bumping up the bpm one step at a time. Practice practice practice.

Okay, any songs other than the two I mentioned in the OP (to give you an idea of the speed I can just barely do) that have a similar pattern?

The lesson, I can handle at 85% speed, I managed to do 90% once.

I also plan on replacing the spring in my pedal with a lighter one, so my foot doesn't have to fight as much and I can focus on the motion.

I just found those today and did all the expert ones. Just keep trying at Toms, I kept screwing up but then randomly FCed it.

So I stuffed my pedal with eraser chunks and electrical tape - reduced the travel and the noise. Half of the problem is gone.

I then got around to calibrating again (I move my 360 between an HDTV and an old CRT). How I forgot to do that, I don't know. Must have been the combination of correct calibration and that moment it finally clicked. Now to go off and play this type of beat in the wild.

Apparently, it was only an accident of fate. I couldn't keep the beat on Thrasher, the song I used to practice separation. (Then again, Thrasher has the foot on 1, while the other beat had the hands on 1)
