which the tempo changes also increases as the tempo continues to increase.
* When the tempo of the metronome is changed, it begins at the tempo closest to
one of the predetermined starting tempos.
This is the Speed Check. With Speed Check, if you play correctly for eight measures,
the RMP-5 will acknowledge this and advance 5 BPM faster.
This continues until it reaches the metronome’s maximum tempo.
The exercise begins after a two-measure count-in.
* When you play the passage accurately, the indicator flashes four times in the
display, and the tempo increases by 5 BPM.
If you do not play accurately, the indicator flashes twice, and remains at the
same tempo for another eight measures.
What is BPM?
BPM is an abbreviation for
“Beats Per Minute” (number of
quarter-note beats in a one-
minute period). Also means
“tempo.”
This helps you to discover the
tempos that are challenging for
you.
When Speed Check is selected,
the timing of the notes being
checked and the degree of
difficulty are determined in
accordance with the Time
Check settings (p. 14).
