  • I Like It!

    …and might rate it a 5 if they fix the bug where the tempo numbers overwrite themselves making them unreadable.

    Hi Steveareno - we will fix that bug for sure! Could you email us details or a screenshot with what iPhone model are you using please (info@rt60.co.uk). We don’t have that problem on our test devices, so it will be an easy fix… thanks for posting your review!
  • Simplistic awesome metronome

    Love the pitch change feature so the sound doesn't fatigue your ears

    Thanks for your review, much appreciated! 🙏🙏🙏
  • Accurate and simple interface

    Always looking for an improved metronome and this has some good features. I especially like the ability to customize the click and the sliding tempo adjustment that makes it easy to select a new BPM on the fly. If there was a way to run this in split view on the iPad it would be ideal for me as I'm using it live with a band and have some other apps that I would like to see at the same time. Otherwise thanks for the chance to try it out for free!

  • Not user friendly for set list performance

    Bought this app to program song titles and associated BPM's for each song in a set list for performance.
    Not a good application for this. After programming a 33 song set list, I found that when selecting a song I had to go to the metronome setting to have the metronome engaged but when going back to the set list it locks up not allowing me to select the next song to continue playing! Being the drummer in the band, I count off each song and need a set list that displays the metronome for each song and immediately allow for advancing to the next song. Unless I misunderstood the app, this is a big fail for me.

    Hi there, the setlist feature should work 100% fine, select your set, then select the song you are playing, and then press the play button (which is a standard triangle shape pointing right). You’ll hear the preprogrammed click and see the metronome icon ticking away in time. At the end of the song, press stop (square button), select the next song and repeat - it works every time, so there’s no need to leave the setlists page at all during your show. The Atomic logo also doubles up as a play/stop button too. We’re committed to always improving the app so will continue to develop and see if any future improvements can be made, but the function you are asking for is already there within the app. If you email us asking for help we can easily send you some screenshots to help you find the right buttons to press.
  • Setting for background play?

    Is there not a way for the metronome to keep playing when the app is running in the background or the screen is closed?

    Developer Response

    Hi there. Atomic is programmed to always override the iPhone’s auto-lock, so if you are using the app it will not get interrupted by the automatic Lock Screen (if you have it set). So you can practice knowing it won’t cut out at any time while you are using it.
  • Practical tool!

    Great features for a metronome. Not quite a “drum machine.” Wish it had a few more “percussion sounds and a little more subdivision options. Nice graphic on main page and very quick manual tempo change function.
  • Perfect build. Finally.

    I have dreamt of a stable, easily navigable, and professionally competent metronome for years.

    This is it. Aside from the color selection, which I find to be helpful for my eyes in low light studio atmosphere, it’s entirely streamlined without any unnecessary bells and whistles.

    The menus for selection of time and division, as well as controlling for tone and sustain of sub counts in polyrhythm is thorough. It will be incredibly beneficial for exploring new playing to experiment with these settings when writing.

    I would love to see this concept expanded into a common DAW compatible plug in. The mobile is everything it needs to be and then some, and this functionality inside Reaper or Pro Tools would be invaluable.
