  • Thank You

    Goodbye Dr. Beat. I really like the sound choices.
    Perhaps add a visa blue square under the subdivision that would blink - that subdivision. Nice visual cue option (turn on/off switch) to help teach students.
    I'm a 25+ year music teacher.
  • Excellent Metronome

    Works great. I prefer it over the Dr. Beat ($120) that I have been using for the last 2-3 years. The option to have the metronome be silent for a selected number of measures is particularly useful.
  • Good but needs better sounds

    The concept and implementation of this metronome are innovative and relatively user friendly. It is one of the few metronomes with polyrhythmic functions and self-timing training where the beat can be silenced in several ways, helping you develop your own sense of time internally without robotic reliance on the click. In those regards, everything works as advertised and the click is completely accurate.
    However, where this app falls short, and the reason I don't use it much is the poor quality of sounds. There are only two from the list that I find practical to use while I practice drums. The rest are either harsh, too squashed sounding, have poor fades on the end, or they don't cut enough to be heard clearly.
    This app is very well thought out and designed, and since its shortcomings can be overcome, I'm giving it 3 out of 5 stars. More attention to useful sounds is the only thing lacking, although that's a somewhat large drawback.

  • Complicated

    Maybe it's me....maybe it's because I don't know how to read music, but I think this app is complicated to use. I'm sure it does all kinds of good things, but I just wanted something simple that gives me the timing like a real traditional Metronome. Plus, I think the price is pretty steep.
  • More than a metronome

    As a percussionist who plays congas, most metronomes leave much to be desired. The extreme flexibility of metronomics is in another league. More of a drum sequencer than a metronome . Even with a couple of minor bugs (quickly sorted by the developer) well worth 5 stars!
  • Best metronome app ever!

    I was just looking for a metronome app but this is much much more than that. It has features beyond my wildest expectations, an intuitive and easy user interface, excellent documentation and much more. It not only provides just about any beat or rhythm I needed but also has taught me much about them. A lot of thought went into this app. I highly recommend it

  • Metronomes

    I purchased the metronome on the 22nd feb 2012 for some reason
    I have no audible sound coming from my ipad
    Can anyone help with this problem
  • great app

    I found this app very useful and handy. Easy to work with aswell.
  • Impressive!!

    I was initially intrigued by this non-traditional take on a very common music tool. After ten minutes I'm completely sold! Easy to program and save. Won't be buying a Dr. Beat anytime soon;)
  • Suitable for Carnatic beats

    You can create patterns like "tisra jati triputa talam" (3+2+2) VERY easily with this. It also adds random variations, so it is almost like playing with a live drummer, which makes practice much less tedious and much more enjoyable for a longer time. Well worth the modest cost.
