## What is True Beat?

True Beat is an accurate metronome that comes equipped with many useful features, yet easy to use. The consistent and intuitive user interface minimizes the time needed to explore the app allowing you to instantly include it into your practice routine on your instrument.

Main features 
• Tempo
• Meter
• Rhythmic pattern (subdivisions)
• Accents on any beat

True Beat supports a wide tempo range between 20 - 360 BPM, divided into common tempo markings, from slowest to fastest, larghissimo (24 bpm and under) to prestissimo (200 bpm and more). The meter may be set to any time signature between 2/4 and 16/4. As for subdivisions, duplets, triplets, quadruplets may be set to emphasis a rhythmic pattern. Further, any beat in the meter may optionally be accentuated.

To get started, press the play button of the metronome in the center and the metronome starts playing using its current settings.

At any time you can adjust beat, meter, rhythmic pattern by pressing the plus or minus buttons, or accentuate any beat in the meter by long pressing the beat number. 

The metronome also allows setting the beat by tapping with the finger. You enable this mode by long pressing the play button. It switches back to normal mode as soon as the count-down timer expires.

Other possible adjustments of the metronome
• Measure accents
• Beat volume
• Rhythm volume
• Count-in
• Available sounds: Cowbell, Electronic, Metronome, Tick Tock, and Woodblock.
