Yo guys. So what I did was I imagined the placement of a high hat, snare, bass drum with dual-pedal, 1 rack tom, 1 floor tom, two crashes, 1 ride, and 1 china and practiced playing those imaginary drums with real drum sticks for 1 hour a day, 7 days. Here's the song I was trying to learn the drums for.

Yes, I wrote it. ^_^
Then I went to a practice studio and practiced it on real drums for one hour and then made this recording of my progress.

I was pretty satisfied for my first real practice after just 1 week of air practice. although I was kind of annoyed that stomping on the bass drum pedal feels completely different from stomping on the floor. Thus, I didn't have very smooth bass drum hits. Also, there was no china at the studio so I hit one of the crash cymbals. I couldn't play the two "problem areas," even after mastering them on the air. I suppose I could have picked a much easier song as my first, but I had fun anyway.
Check it out.
