Very fast. Usually practised at half speed first, then stepped up.

Practising at 180 BPM

  1. Play the passage at about 90 BPM until every note is accurate and evenly spaced.
  2. Raise the tempo in steps of about 5 BPM โ€” 170, 175, then 180.
  3. Move up only after two clean run-throughs in a row. Dropping back a step is normal.
  4. If a bar keeps failing, loop that bar alone rather than replaying the whole piece.
