Listen to the pattern. After the count-in, reproduce it while the quiet pulse keeps time. Tap only at note attacks.
Tap at quarter-note positions 1, 3.
Listen to the complete bar before responding. During your turn, tap the attacks and keep rests quiet while the pulse continues.
Count 4/4 at 80 BPM. Attacks occur at 1, 3 in quarter-note beat units. Rests take time without an attack.
Tap at quarter-note positions 1, 3, 4.
Count how many attacks each example needs, then locate them. Equal total length does not mean equal tap positions.
Count 4/4 at 80 BPM. Attacks occur at 1, 3, 4 in quarter-note beat units. Rests take time without an attack.
Blocks show durations in quarter-note units. R marks a rest; > marks an accented attack. Numbers below each bar are quarter-note positions, which differ from the main beat in 6/8.
Check the idea: A clean retry shows correction on a familiar question; the new-question check records a separate attempt.
After the count-in, reproduce the rhythm. Use the feedback to locate one missed or extra tap before a slower same-question retry.
Echo each new rhythm at the selected tempo. Each first response remains your independent result even if a retry succeeds.
Echo two freshly generated questions after the set. Check the new rest and subdivision positions before tapping.
Each session starts with two guided questions, then your chosen practice set, followed by two new questions at a different tempo. First answers, same-question retries, and the final check have separate results.
