Managing multiplex sync siteswap brainstrain ([64],2)(2x,[6x4])(4x,2)*

 I'm starting to like it when there is a vertical [64] stack and a [54] split in the same pattern. Especially when different things happen to the two balls in the [64] and it feels and looks sweet when a ball goes through that [54] split also.
I had started the day with this great 4 ball pattern which seemed to be 23[64]21[54]1  which then turned into another one

Which had seemed to be 23[64]21[54]14522 so then I wanted to make some type of 5 ball model.
5 ball versions
I had the feeling for this next one without simulator so an extra ball but keeping some of the same idea. The main thing I wanted was the lower ball of the [64] to become a single 5 throw splitting a [54]. I pieced something together and after managing to juggle it at least a little bit tried to work out the siteswap for myself. That was a bit of a brain strain as I only worked it out when I switched my thinking to sync mode! I still find working out multiplex siteswaps in true sync mode can be quite taxing so I was relieved (some few long minutes later) to get it. Of course, I said, it's obviously going to be ([64],2)(2x,[6x4])(4x,2)* silly me!

Great to find this pattern but I have to keep the [64] throws straight and make it smooth. Depending on the height it can feel quite fast to juggle but a whole lot of fun.

5 ball Multiplex box training patterns

So having decided that I want to juggle a 5 ball multiplex box what to do? Nothing to understand about this just juggle it. ([44],2x)*  I tried it for a bit and realized it's harder than I thought.
I won't let go of the idea though so now I'm devising 'practise patterns' as stepping stones to the real thing. Today these patterns which should help and actually feel quite good anyway.
This first one is more like a multiplex version of 441 but you keep a hold of a ball when doing the pass so [21] or [22x]

  4[44][21]

Sync version

Siteswap ([22x],[44])([22],4)* if it's sync which boxes usually seem to be ?! But we could say it's 4[44][21] also maybe.  I'm having a lot of fun trying to understand which patterns are sync or async. It's kind of important for me to learn about it as at the moment I'm finding most of my new patterns from jugglelab generator.

Next pattern for instance could be reverse ([6x4],2)(4,[22]) or could also be [54]24 reverse. or we could even just say 'Gattoplex reverse' ! This is all quite new to me which is why I'm so into it.

([6x4],2)(4,[22])* from jugglelab or 'Sync Gattoplex reversed'

Another one is [44][44]13 where one side is the box then a normal crossing throw on the other side. But it's one sided so to be really box practise I have to be trying it both sides.

Now I have feeling that there will be more practise of these and also new funny patterns on this road to 5 ball multiplex box which may be quite long and winding.
