## What is Step Metronome?

Build the rhythm pattern you need, instantly.

Step Metronome — a metronome designed by a professional musician.

Want clicks only on offbeat sixteenth notes? Want to combine triplets and sixteenth notes? Want to practice along with a drum pattern?

Create the rhythm exercises you want, easily and freely.

Developed by professional guitarist Hidehisa Sasaki, drawing on years of performing and teaching experience.

From beginners to professionals, across instruments and genres, make rhythm practice more flexible and more musical.

PLACE CLICKS EXACTLY WHERE YOU WANT THEM

Simply tap the Step buttons to place clicks wherever you need them.

Practice with clicks on offbeat sixteenth notes, beats 2 and 4, or specific points in a challenging phrase.

Adjust the volume (velocity) of each step to practice accents your way.

PLAY THREE METRONOMES TOGETHER

Combine up to three metronomes: A, B, and C.

Easily create complex patterns by layering different subdivisions, such as eighth notes, triplets, and sixteenth notes.

Use snare, kick, and hi-hat sounds to play a drum pattern alongside your click.

ADJUST SWING IN 1% INCREMENTS

Fine-tune the feel from straight to deep swing.

Explore subtle swing in sixteenth-note grooves or the feel of jazz swing, practicing nuances that are difficult to capture with a conventional metronome.

AUTOMATIC TEMPO CHANGES AND THREE TRAINING MODES

• Step: Change tempo in stages, such as increasing by 5 BPM every 8 bars.
• Sweep: Change tempo smoothly to a target over a specified duration.
• Random Mute: Randomly silence the click to develop your internal sense of time.

Support focused practice, from daily fundamentals to challenging phrases.
