Test your ears with Perfect Rhythm, a revolutionary way to sharpen your awareness of musical tempo and timing invented by world-renowned drummer Gavin Harrison. The Perfect Rhythm app features two different quiz-based listening games. The Perfect Tempo game involves listening to four metronomic clicks followed by four more clicks that are either rushing, dragging or perfectly on time. The Perfect Timing game involves listening to four metronomic clicks followed by one more click that is either ahead, behind or perfectly on time. Each game progresses through gradually more difficult levels. You can go for a high score by starting from the beginning and going as far as you can, or you can choose to practice each level individually. Are you up for the challenge?
