POCKETGAP EXERCISES

Practice with a reason.

Choose the timing problem you want to solve. Every exercise gives you exact PocketGap settings, a focused routine, and a clear way to make the next session easier or harder.

Change one variable at a time.

Tempo, gap length, subdivision, and groove complexity all affect the result. Holding the other variables steady helps you hear what actually changed.
