I woke up this morning at 4:00 because I couldn't sleep so I went down to the studio and spent the next 3 1/2 hours practicing. About 40 minutes was with the Nitro working on Groove #1 slow in the Tommy Igoe's Groove Essentials. I was using the metronome on the Nitro at a speed of 76. I will eventually get around to making a video demonstrating the metronome on the Nitro as well as a review of the set that I will post on the other site but what I have come to really like about this is that the display on the control module will show whether you are playing on the beat, ahead of the beat, or behind the beat. This morning I was focusing mostly on variation B in the exercise because my instructor has made it clear that my overall set drumming progress will be much faster once I master the kick drum sixteenth notes on the last quarter of the second and third beats in this variation. I then proceeded to work on various sections of the Bach fugue (#21) in Bb. I still don't have it memorized completely but after working on it for around 2 1/2 hours I went back to sleep. Later today I decided to begin using the metronome with it so that I could iron out places where I have some rhythmic inconsistencies and identify the sections that have the most problems. I am now working on it with the quarter note set to about 54 as that speed is the fastest I can reasonably execute the right hand passage in measures 24 and 25. That was essentially my practice for today although I did play through the first page and a half of Satin Doll from memory.
