Thanks. I really wish I could post the picture.


The piece I want to play is of a funk/neo soul style. 


 It comprises 4 sets of 4 beamed 16th notes ie 4 groups of 4. 


What is challenging is that all are muted except:


Group 1 - 3rd note is unmuted


Group 2 - 2nd note is unmuted


Group 3 - 1st note is unmuted


Group 4 - the 3rd and 4th notes are unmuted.


This means that 2 noted muted are followed by  1 note unmuted followed by 2 notes muted for most of the bar. 


I am struggling with the timing or synching of unmuting/remuting  such a piece .
