Play a practice routine, and see how far each style has come
Each style's practice routines now play in the player one exercise after another, with the minutes counted while you play. Signed in, each style's page shows how many of its exercises you've played clean at their goal tempo.
Every page of exercises, Metal, Rock & blues, Acoustic, Classical, Fundamentals and Bass, ends with ready-made practice routines: a short one and a longer one, a few exercises with minutes for each. Until now you had to open them one by one and keep the time yourself.
- Play routine. A button under each routine opens its first exercise in the player, with a bar over the score: which routine and step it is, the minutes left and the exercise after it.
- Minutes you actually play. The clock runs only while the score is playing, so stopping to retune or look at the tab doesn't use up your time. Reload the page and it carries on where it was.
- Nothing cuts you off. When the minutes are up the bar says so and the Next button lights up, but the loop you're playing goes on until you move on yourself. The last step's Finish button takes you back to the routine.
- How far each style has come. Signed in, the top of each style's page shows how many of its exercises you've played clean at their goal tempo, with a bar: "3 of 21 at their goal tempo". Each section's heading has its own count, routine steps you've already mastered say "at goal", and the Exercises page shows the count on each style's card. A goal tempo you've set yourself counts as the goal.
