I have an image in my mind of an effect I'd like to achieve: I'd like to shoot with a long shutter speed to get his drum sticks and high-hat as blurred - but use a strobe to freeze the drumstick in the middle of it's arc. I don't have a clue about how to set the strobes to get this. Maybe it's not possible but I have to think it is and I'm just not knowledgable enough to make it work. I'm going to try at different shutter speeds and experiment around of course - but I thought someone may have done something similiar in the past.
