right and left hand independence

[Cannabassist]

Are there any ways that you know of to improve independence with both hands?

Im trying to tap an ostinato on the higher register with my left hand while tapping a melody with my right in the lower register and I have zero coordination.

what exercises do you know will help me get better at this?

less "canna" and more "bass".

When it comes to coordination between hands for tapping, the only way I can really imagine improving your skill at it is to do it often. Maybe start out with less complex things, or playing a bit slower at first as well. Hopefully that helps out.

I learned Linus and Lucy once; that was my first experience in tapping. Then I forgot it because I rarely ever tap in my bands, so I'm in the same boat. Very little independence.

From what I remember, I would practice both hands' parts separately, slowly then a tempo, until I could do either without many mistakes. Then I would go super slow, counting each beat subdivision out loud as I lined up the parts. After doing this for freakin' ever I would get the metronome and start slow, then increase the speed gradually. I'm sure there are better ways to do it, but it worked back then; just took a lot of time and concentration.
