Developing Internal Timing Sense (QUIET COUNT)
This lets you practice keeping the tempo with your body. For the rst
few measures, the click is heard at the specied volume, but for the
next few measures the click is not heard. This cycle of several measures
will continue until you stop it.
1. In the QUIET COUNT screen, press the [F5] (START)
button.
2. Strike the pad in time with the click.
5 The click will sound during the rst few measures. When you reach
the last measure during which the click will sound, the screen will
indicate “Ready..”
5 When the click stops sounding, the screen indication will change to
“Quiet.” Continue striking the pads during this time.
5 After the Quiet region, the proportion of your strikes that were
played at an accurate tempo are shown as a “%.”
3. Press the [F4] (STOP) button.

WARM UPS
In this mode you’ll successively practice steps 1–3, be graded on your
performance at each step, and then receive a nal evaluation.
You can choose one of three courses (5/10/15 minutes), ranging from
easy to dicult. You can also adjust the tempo according to your level
of skill.

Step 1: Change-Up
In this step, the rhythm type will change every two measures.
Starting from half notes, the note values will gradually become
shorter, and will then return to half notes; this change in rhythms
will be repeated.
Step 2: Auto Up/Down
The tempo will gradually be raised and lowered.
The tempo will increase by 1 BPM (beat-per-minute) for each beat
until the click reaches the upper limit; then the tempo will continue
slowing down by 1 BPM until it reaches the initial tempo.
* Auto Up/Down will be executed if Duration is 10 MINS or 15 MINS.
* Auto Up/Down does not let you use the [TEMPO] knob to adjust
the current tempo.
* The current tempo value will be the lower tempo limit.
Step 3:Time Check
At this step, the accuracy of your playing will be checked against
the click. You can see in the screen if you are ahead, behind or on
the beat.
Overall evaluation
This grades your performance at each step, and displays the overall
evaluation.
