## What is Musical Meter 1?

Musical Meter makes learning to read and play music rhythms fun. Thanks to its innovative, two-hand design, our app teaches you not only when to play a note but how long to hold it. Visual representations and animated examples let you see and hear how to play each music symbol. Interactive, randomly generated levels ensure you truly understand the subject matter. Our notation looks professionally engraved so you’ll be ready to read real sheet music. This precision app will hone your timing and help you develop a strong, internalized sense of rhythm.

This first app in the Musical Meter suite introduces the following concepts:
• simple time (2/4, 3/4, 4/4, and 2/2)
• whole, half, and quarter notes and rests
• dotted half notes
• ties

Sight reading and timing exercises are mentally demanding, so have fun but remember to pace yourself.

Enjoy!

This app is really good to learn and practice music reading skills in a fun way. I really enjoy it specially making lines.

### 5/5 — Well done

*2018-03-07, version 1.0.5*

I was looking for something for learning to follow timing in music. Got to level 4. Hope there are more levels so that I can progress. I feel a shift in my thinking. Well done. Thank-you. I have "novice" on my screen. Is it the same as "tempo"? I will buy the next up as soon as I can figure out which one. My flute playing is much better thanks to better timing.

This is how a simple music learning app should be. The challenge to the games makes it a self competitive way to learn your rhythms

Love the way the games work. I did have some knowledge of the symbols unlike somebody with no knowledge. This app is a keeper.
