The challenge is to express the pattern in the shortest/simplest notation for ease of #livecoding

The "Doin' the Do" drum loop was a bit more difficult to express as #strudal #mininotation because I haven't been able to find the 16-step grid pattern documented anywhere, so had to match the pattern by ear, and my ears ain't so good in my old age

How close did I get?

Can you improve on this?

Tried to transcribe the #AmenBreak in #strudel using drum patterns that came up in Internet searches. Comparing with the original sample, there seems to be other instruments that were not expressed in the pattern.

Might sound better if I used the correct instrument sample names for rides and cymbal crash
