Practice controls let users set difficulty, accuracy, length, time signature, repertoire, metronome, and listening offset; audio can be calibrated, with a low-latency option and a silent-mode note. Keyboard shortcuts include Space/F/J for tapping, Enter to start or stop, L to listen, and arrow keys to move through examples. The corpus can be sorted by frequency, difficulty, or title, and filtered to favorites or current settings.
