## What is Batuta?

Batuta is three tools in one: a metronome that never drifts, a chromatic tuner, and a set of games that turn practice into something you actually want to open.

PLAY ALONG WITH YOUR OWN MUSIC
This is the part no other metronome does well. Add a track from your phone and Batuta finds its tempo AND its phase — where beat one really falls — then puts the click exactly on top. Two independent volumes let you decide how much of each you hear. Everything is analysed on your device: your music is never uploaded anywhere.

THE METRONOME
• 2/4 to 7/8, with quarters, eighths, triplets and sixteenths
• Click in three timbres, a voice counting in English or Spanish, or silence
• Tap any beat of the bar to mute it and drill the one you keep missing
• Three visuals — big number, pulse, pendulum — plus a full-screen flash
• Tap tempo, slider, ±1 buttons, and vibration for loud rooms
• A count-in of 1, 2 or 4 bars that stops on its own
• Keeps playing with the screen off

THE TUNER
Chromatic, plus presets for guitar, bass, ukulele, violin and cello. Shows the note and how many cents off you are, with an adjustable A reference and a reference tone you can hold.

EIGHT GAMES TO TRAIN ON
Accuracy, guess the tempo, rhythm echo, silent gaps, tempo ladder, changing time signatures, random beats and a timed session. Each has a practice mode with no pressure and a compete mode with levels, three lives, records and achievements.

YOUR LIBRARY
Save every piece you rehearse with its tempo and time signature, mark the favourites, and come back to any of them with one tap.

AND
• Light and dark, with six accent colours
• English and Spanish, following your phone
• Works completely offline
• No account, no sign-up, no ads
• No data collected. Your tempos, records and settings never leave the phone.

Batuta is free, with nothing to unlock and nothing to sign up for.
