Swing makes room to move
Swing delays every second pad by a little. Nothing else about the rhythm changes, and it goes from marching to walking. A little is hip-hop, a lot is a shuffle.
As you raise the swing, every second pad slides to the right: that distance is how late it plays.
That is the idea.
Swing is a dial, not a switch, and most music you like has some.
