Syncing up to a Kick Drum Beat

Yeah, I cut some corners here by using my own old system and not firing up a notation software to properly write out the drum track… but, I really only wanted to convey the kick-snare pattern here and since it was only 8 bars…

In any case, @Vik, if you intend to transcribe drum tracks more regularly, I would certainly advise you to follow @JoshFossgreen’s recommendation to stick with the DrumMag version or use a good notation software that “knows” where to put the different drums into the five line grid. While I don’t use Sibelius, I am sure MuseScore (which is free) also supports the official drum notation clef.
