Time Manipulation - Section 4 - Beat Displacement
Section 4 of Time Manipulation is meant to approach beat displacements in a simple and progressive way. It includes three sets of seven exercises, and I feel they are one of the most interesting series of exercises in the book.
- These exercises can be worked on in a variety of ways.
- Start by working on each pattern separately.
- I suggest various ways of sequencing the patterns on the page, for example by playing each bar twice, four or eight times..

- In this example, each pattern is played twice.
This exercise can be worked on with my Pattern Morphing concept.
16 patterns can become 256 patterns of 2 measures.
