Operation of the RM-2
Time Check ( )
Time Check mode is designed to help develop timing skills with the goal of playing exactly
with the beat of the metronome. The beats played on the pad are measured against the
timing of the metronome, and the result is displayed.

2. Push the [METRONOME] button to begin the exercise.
You can change tempo during the exercise using the [ ] or [ ] button.
Quiet Count ( )
Quiet Count mode is a timing exercise designed to develop and learn “internal” timing. In
this mode, the metronome will play at the set volume level for the first eight measures then
play the second eight measures at a reduced volume. The eight measure cycle of loud and
soft counts will continue until stopped.
1. In the Coach mode, use the [ ] or [ ] button until ““ is displayed.
2. Push the [METRONOME] button to begin the exercise.
You can change tempo during the exercise using the [ ] or [ ] button.
Speed Check ( )
Speed Check mode is very similar to the Time Check mode in that the goal is to play exactly
in time with the metronome. With Speed Check, when a rhythm is played for eight measures
with the correct timing of the metronome, the RM-2 will acknowledge the performance and
advance 5 beats per minute (5 BPM) faster. This will continue until the metronome’s
maximum tempo is achieved.
1. In the Coach mode, use the [ ] or [ ] button until ““ is displayed.
2. Once the [METRONOME] button is pressed, there will be a two measure count in before
Speed Check begins.
If you've played it with the correct timing, the indication in the display will flash
four times, then the BPM will be increased by five. If you were unsuccessful, the
display will flash only one time, and the unit will remain at the same tempo.
On the beat (perfect timing).
Behind the beat (too slow).
Ahead of the beat (too fast).
