I've got to disagree. The simple matter is, you can't play a riff pulsed wrong as fast as you can if it's pulsed right. That's the point I was trying to make. It will be disjointed and uneven and generally slower, IMO right now. It'll probably change though and I'll see the wisdom of your words.

Probably in time and the more you play it, one will gradually begin to pulse it right by the natural learning process.. but I bet if you take the time to figure out exactly what you're playing and where the pulse should go, your playing will improve just that much faster.
