Kick | Steps 1 and 9 | Start of beats 1 and 3 | Observed: __________ | Next decision: __________
Snare | Steps 5 and 13 | Beats 2 and 4 | Observed: __________ | Next decision: __________
Closed hat | 1 / 3 / 5 / 7 / 9 / 11 / 13 / 15 | Eighth-note pulse | Observed: __________ | Next decision: __________
Bass | 1 / 7 / 9 / 15 | Syncopated starting points | Observed: __________ | Next decision: __________

Review steps:
1. Open Pocket and set 120 BPM with swing initially neutral. Enter the drum rows from the worksheet and listen before adding bass.
2. Add the bass pattern and keep its level low enough to hear the kick. Change one row at a time so you can hear what the edit does.
3. After a stable loop, try a small swing change and compare. Keep a separate pattern note and verify any available stem or handoff route before relying on it.

Decision note: This is a written rhythm exercise, not a Pocket project file or an app-rendered beat. Pocket is a one-bar sketchpad with local storage; the pattern is not a full song arrangement.
