Limb independence is a term commonly used by
hi-hat (sometimes on another bass drum if double bass drums are used), the right foot on the bass drum, and the two hands on other cymbals and drums on the drum kit. Limb independence allows them to play different rhythms, without having to consciously focus on each one individually. This is especially important in jazz and Latin
based drumming. It is also one of the more difficult parts of learning the drums, since it is harder to process.
