Hmm, nice drummer! But what I don't like about it, is that he plays the first element of each character on the 'one' of each measure, which automatically gives it emphasis. However, when I hear or send morse, I hear the emphasis on the first dash of the element. I find this much more intuitive.
An example may make things clearer. Let's look at the character F. The drummer plays: DIT dit dah dit While I think of F as: dit dit DAH dit
If I could play drums, I would have played those first two dits in the previous measure (I think the English term is: in the upbeat). But, alas, I cannot. So I will keep quiet now :)
