How to use the tempo trainer
Set a Start BPM and a Target BPM, then choose how much to increase the tempo by and how often (e.g. "+2 BPM every 4 bars"). Set the number of quarter notes per bar to match the time signature you're practicing in.
Click "Start" and the metronome will begin at your start tempo and automatically speed up (or slow down, if your target is lower than your start) as you play, without you needing to touch the settings.
Once the target tempo is reached the metronome holds there. Turn on Loop back to start BPM if you want it to reset and ramp up again automatically, useful for repeated practice reps without stopping.
This is a great way to build speed on rudiments, fills, or full grooves gradually rather than jumping straight to a fast tempo.
