tabla players have syllables for different beats (i.e. da de de da de de da 
de de de ),,.

i knew a good one and he taught me a bunch of different ones with different 
syllables.

...i wound up using it as a memory system for all my rhythm patterns..

try that.

I am wondering if anyone can help suggest ways I can easily picture or 
remember rhythm patterns, such that I can make adjustments, and not repeat 
previous patterns. I am in awe of complex rhythm patterns, where the player 
modifies, riff by riff, or should I say verse by verse the patterns to 
create interest. I know it is a language, and yet I am wondering if anyone 
can offer up a fast track way of making these patterns, such that I will 
know where I have been and then know where to go next? Big question, but 
maybe someone can offer, off list, a solution, unless the secret is a 
destiny based reward, for the worthy :-)
