Warm Ups - Roland TD-25 Parameter Manual

Practicing in Coach Mode

WARM UPS

In this mode you'll successively practice steps 1–3, be graded on your performance at each step, and
then receive a final evaluation.
You can choose one of three courses, ranging from easy to difficult. You can also adjust the tempo
according to your level of skill.
MEMO
After you've started WARM UPS, you can press the [F3] (PAUSE)
button to pause the WARM UPS.
To resume practicing, press the [F3] (START) button once again. If
you're finished with WARM UPS, press the [F1] (STOP) button.
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 metronome reaches the upper limit; then the tempo will continue
slowing down by 1 BPM until it reaches the initial tempo; this change in
tempo will be repeated.
* 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 tempo.
* The current tempo value will be the lower tempo limit.
MEMO
While practicing, you can press the [F1] (SET MAX) button to specify the current tempo as the upper
limit; if you press the [F1] (CLR MAX) button, the upper tempo limit will return to 260.
Step 3:Time Check
At this step, the accuracy of your playing will be checked against the
metronome. You can see in the screen if you are ahead, behind or on
the beat.
