Work with a metronome. a drum machine is more fun to work with than your standard metronome because of the different insrtruments and rhythm patterns wyou can program into ithere is also a device called the 'Beat Bug' that shows you at what tempo you are playing in a Beats per minute

First thing is not to get hung up on the timing thing. What I mean everybody can keep a beat. First relax take a deep breath let it out and go with the flow. However if you are recording you may want to invest in a good quality metronome and work along with that. I find it really helps me in session work.

As much as we all hate it, nothing beats a metronome. Every so often I set my Dr. Beat to 56 - 60 beats per minute and play single stoke rolls (barely a roll at that tempo) doubles and paradiddles on the quarter note. You'd be amazed at how good you can get with timing when you practice so slow that it drives you crazy! Strive for even exact hits from both hands and no flamming with the metronome!! After a while speed up to 70 - 80 and so forth. There's no shame in doing these drills. You gotta go slow and steady every once in a while. Also, try concert rolls at 60 bpm. Try to get about six to eight bounces per stroke. Keep that even and your buzz rolls will sound amazing! Hope this helps
