Hi 
Heres a animation on how it works...

Make sure you set the thing on repeat otherwise you will only see 2 
strokes.
in my last post i had a link to a text describing it.
Its actually striking the drum down and before you lift your arm 
strike it again... its very well described in that text.
But i guess most of you already using that technique :=)  but for me 
it was a real eye opener !
