ok , my experience on e (dn) a(dn) m(dn) i(dn) i(up). dont know the answer ,didnt get too much thought to this .I think my 5 stroke (eamii) rasgueados,are smth like a 3 2 ,e a m .. i i .I pause intentionally a little between the eam and the ii,i didnt study like this ..just like to start the rasgueado slow and then the last i i strokes to do it fast(it's like i dont know ...smth like (what's the word) ritardando). I guess that it's aplyable to tremolo and this is a good point ...probably this will be what some call it "letting it breath" . good continuous rasgueado would be nice too ...I mean two 5 stroke rasgueado without feeling the interruptions between the first quintuplet and the second one would be cool too. ,I cant do this very properly ...cause I dont study this at the moment,but in the Dennis Koster's "keys to flamenco" he says to practice like this : Eam Iie Ami Iea Mii.So practice 3 five stroke rasgueado, like 5 three rasgueados(the capitalized letters shows how the accents must be placed).This should help u to be able to accentuate with every finger.I tried that and it is getting better,so that's good advice to me.But there is another catch if u really want to have it the sound continuous. for example this solea example (the first bar of a soleares ) X 0----0--------------------0----0------------------------------0- 1----1----1-----1----1---1----1----1-----1----1------1-----1- 2----2----2-----2----2---2----2----2-----2----2------2-----2-- -----3----3-----3----3---------3----3-----3----3------3------- -----------0----0--------------------0-----0------------0-------- ---------------------------------------------------------------------- e a m i i e a m i i and i i If u succeed to hit the strings like that ....he says u'll get more continuous rasgueados.That's his advice and I believe him but I also believe , u got to spend some time to polish this rasgueado...and I dont wanna do that now.
