OTHER MODES
TIMER
You can set a timer from 1 to 60 minutes to designate a period of time to practice. You can enter other
modes or use all other pad functions while the timer is running. The timer will go off when it runs out. To set
the timer, hold down GAME for three seconds until the "Time" MODE INDICATOR is shown. Use VALUE +/-
to set the amount of time. Press START / STOP to start the timer.
GAME MODE
In this mode, you can learn to play various rhythms by following visual prompts on the LCD. On the left and
right edges of the LCD – the GAME NOTE DISPLAY – horizontal bars will move from the top of the display to
the bottom, toward the drum icons. When a bar reaches a drum icon, strike the actual pad with your
drumstick.
(The bars on the left and right side of the screen represent your left and right hands,
respectively.) When you strike a pad at the correct time, an "L" or "R" will appear next to the drum icon on
the LCD. There are three different ways to play this game in Game Mode. Press GAME / TIMER to toggle
through them:
GAME: Pressing GAME / TIMER once will enter Game Mode. You will be able
to hear the pattern you are supposed to play, but you will not be scored.
GAME 1: Pressing GAME / TIMER a second time will display "GAME 1." You
will not hear the pattern you are supposed to play and you will be scored.
GAME 2: Pressing GAME / TIMER a third time will display "GAME 2." You will
not hear the pattern you are supposed to play and you will be scored. If you
score at least 60 points, the "OK" icon will appear on the LCD and the pattern
will change. (There are 60 patterns for this game, which become more difficult
as you progress.) Press START / STOP to begin the new pattern.
To exit Game Mode, press METRO, TRAINING, or RECORD.
TEMPO MODE
In this mode, you can set the tempo of a pattern. Press TEMPO to enter Tempo Mode then use the VALUE
+/- buttons to adjust it.
You can also enter a tempo by tapping the TEMPO / TAP button. The E-Practice Pad will automatically
detect the new tempo from how quickly you press it. To do this, hold the TEMPO / TAP button for three
seconds. The "TAP" icon will appear at the bottom of the LCD. Tap the pad four times at the new tempo you
want to set. (Note: You can not tap a new tempo while in Game Mode.)
RECORD MODE
In this mode, you can record a pattern of your own to play back. Press RECORD to enter Record Mode.
To start recording, press RECORD (while already in Record Mode). If a pattern is selected, it will play as you
record. You can play along to this pattern if you want, or you can mute the background pattern by setting the
metronome volume to "0." (See CHANGING PARAMETERS for more information.)
To stop recording, press RECORD again or START / STOP.
To play back your recording, press START / STOP while in Record Mode.
SETTINGS
E-Practice Pad will automatically save your current settings (beat and rhythm settings, metronome sound,
tempo values, etc.). To return E-Practice Pad to its original factory settings, press and hold both VALUE +
and VALUE – buttons while turning it on. All previous settings will return to their original state.
