simultaneously to enter the coach mode. Both 
[PATTERN] and [TEMPO] LEDs light up.
The display will show:
In Coach mode, press the numbered buttons [1-5] to 
select one of the 5 Coach types.
There are 2 states in coach mode (except for Beat 
Check mode).
•  Preparation: adjust parameters, get ready to 

practice.

•  Practice: practice in the selected type.
Press the [START/STOP] button once and the 
module prepares itself to start practicing (except for 
the Beat Check type).
Press the [START/STOP] button again and the 
practice mode begins. Your hitting accuracy will be 
indicated by the 6 LEDs at the bottom of the drum 
module.

Judging your Timing accuracy by 
Indicators

GOOD (On the Beat)

If your hitting accuracy is right on the standard 
beat, both the [3] and [4] LEDs will flash green for a 
moment.

FAST (Before the Beat)

If your hitting accuracy is earlier than the standard 
beat, the [5] or [VARIATION] button's LED will flash 
red for a moment. You need to slow down.
1.  The [5] button's LED flashes to indicate that you 

were playing a little ahead of the standard beat.

2.  The [VARIATION] button's LED flashes to indicate 

that you were playing a lot ahead of the standard 
beat.

SLOW (After the Beat)

If your hitting accuracy is later than the standard 
beat, the [1] or [2] button's LED will flash red for a 
moment. You need to speed up.
1.  The [2] button's LED flashes to indicate that you 

were playing a little later than the standard beat.

2.  The [1] button's LED flashes to indicate that you 

were playing a lot later than the standard beat.

OUT OF BEAT

If none of the 6 LEDs flash, it means that you were 
playing out of beat, so you might need to practice 
more and try again to do better next time!
