Changing the number of measures after which the rhythm
changes
1.
With “05:Change Up” selected on the training menu
page (TRNG1), use the [>] button to navigate to the
TRNG9 page.
2.
Turn the Data Dial to select 1, 2, or 4 as the number
of measures after which the rhythm changes.
In Pad Gate training, the pads will only produce a sound when your drumming precisely matches
a practice drum pattern. When you have finished training, your score will be displayed on-screen.
In addition, you will be able to view the individual hit ratios for each of the drum parts.

tern as in the song.
