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 acknowl-
edge this and advance 5 BPM faster.
This continues until it reaches the metronome's maxi-
mum 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 increas-
es by 5 BPM.
If you do not play accurately, the indicator flashes twice,
and remains at the same tempo for another eight mea-
sures.
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. 13).
