About IPT - Inner Pulse Trainer
The defininitive tool, with the unique „Help Section“, designed to work your sense of time and your inner clock.
Whatever instrument, whatever style: With the "Inner Pulse Trainer" (IPT) you get the perfect tool to train your Inner Clock, and thereby perfect your Timing and your Groove. You train your senses for Subdivisions and Micro Timing, and you stabilise your Pacing.
You have two options to work with the IPT:
Option 1: You play and practice whatever you need to learn: Whether it is Technique, Scales, Rhythm etc. etc. etc. But with the IPT app, every practice session is at the same time, a Timing session.
Option 2 : You grab yourself a copy of "Your Inner Pulse Trainer" (order it at: www.inner-pulse-trainer.com)! This book provides a systematic method exclusively tailored to the IPT App. This will build and deepen your understanding of timing - no matter what instrument you play.
About the App:
The IPT interface is divided into 2 areas:
1 : The Click Pattern Selection.
Incl. Tempo Choice & Start/Stop switch:
Here you will find a choice of One, Two or Four Beat Click Patterns. Binary and Ternary. The volume is freely adjustable using the Volume slider.
The Sub Menu opens by touching the Note image.
2: The Help Section
The "IPT" helps your training and always keeps you on track. The switchable, volume adjustable "Quarters" mark the 4th pulse/beat and can be immediately muted when you feel confident. The switchable and volume adjustable "Guides" mark the "one" and thus help with orientation.
"Count In": For an easier start to the exercise, you can also leave a count-in.
In the book, or at www.inner-clock-trainer.com (The site goes online when the sale officially starts) you can find detailed, useful information as to how you can use the features of the IPT App.
More infos about the Click Pattern
The Click Patterns are divided into 4 areas.
Subdivision Clicks
For training Basic Subdivisions. Subdivision Quarters, Eighths, Triplets and Sixteenths.
Example:
Choose a Subdivision Pattern. Clap, speak or play the rhythm that you hear.
Be as exact as you can and prevent flams between the ICT and your playing.
Clicks displaced
Here you will find Clicks on all possible placements in the 16th, or Triplet grid.
Example:
Select a Clicks displaced" pattern, play to a simple Chord progression, an easy tune or rhythm, stick with it on the beat. Or simply clap Quarters.
Clicks with gaps
Here you will find Clicks that no longer lay on every Quarter, but are spaced further apart.You need to bridge the gaps yourself without losing the beat.
Example:
Choose a "Clicks with gaps" pattern, play a simple Chord progression, an easy melody or rhythm, stick with it on the beat. Or simply clap Quarters and hit the next „One“.
Standart Clicks
With this area you can use the IPT App as a normal Click. With easy accress to the usual Subdivision Departments.
