A Better Way to Practice
Individual rhythm practice can be monotonous and boring. But with the RM-2 's
Rhythm Coach function, you can practice using 11 different exercises designed to
improve timing, speed and endurance. With the RM-2, your practice sessions become
more effective and fun.
Rhythmic Notes : Rhythmic Notes is an excellent warm up exercise that also teaches note values. In
this mode, the metronome plays through a series of beat divisions every two measures----starting with half
notes, up to 16th-note triplets, and back down.
module/metronome takes the
monotony out of practice with 28
realistic drum sounds and 11
onboard rhythm training
exercises. The RM-2 mounts
easily to the PCK-1 with the
included bracket.
RM-2
Rhythm Coach
Connect an optional
kick drum pedal for
practicing snare and
kick together.
*Please adjust the RM-2's internal settings and use an
optional monaural cable when connecting both the RT-5S
and KD-7 kick trigger. (Note that this disables rim shots.)
Time Chec k : Time Check mode is designed to develop timing
skills by learning to play exactly with the beat of the metronome.
Beats played on the pad are measured against the timing of the
metronome using a visual display for feedback.
*Note that the above examples represent only two of the 11 exercises available.
