Set the beats per minute, and your Apple Watch will play the tempo - and give you sensory feedback. Haptick will keep working when you drop/move your wrist, so you can use this metronome while you are holding up your instrument. The metronome keeps running past the 70 second "sleep limit". The haptic feedback for this app is stronger than the normal "tick" that you are accustomed to, and there is an audible beep that augments the tapping. Set the tempo, and your Apple Watch will vibrate to the beat. That's all there is to it. Features: * The metronome will ignore your wrist action. That way, when you hold your instrument the clicking will keep going. * The audible cue keeps the tempo, along with a haptic pulse. * A button changes the haptic pulse from 2/4 to 3/4, or you can silence the pulse. * Use the slider (+/-) to change the tempo, or use the crown to scroll (fine tune). Notes: * This application will "run in background"; the metronome keeps running past the "sleep" limit (the "wake for 70 seconds"). ** The audible cue (beep) and the heavy haptic pulse will only happen every other beat. There is a limitation on the Apple Watch -- the loud physical haptic vibrate can't keep up to the app's beat. That means, you will hear the tempo as if it were 2/4 (two beats out of four), rather than 4/4 (four beats out of four). This time lag becomes more prominent as the tempo gets faster.

About

Resonance Link

Read full description

**Resonance Link is currently available to members of Nick La Riviere's Rock Choirs (but will be available to other choirs soon, stay tuned!)** Resonance Link is the all-in-one member app for your choir. Everything your choir shares — the rehearsal schedule, announcements, sheet music, and practice tracks — lives in one place, on your phone or tablet. SHEET MUSIC, DONE RIGHT View your charts and switch to your part (Soprano, Alto, Tenor, Bass) with a tap. Annotate, follow along with the built-in metronome and piano, and keep your set list at hand. Music is cached for offline use, so it's there even with no signal. PRACTICE TRACKS Play demo recordings with an adjustable mix — a balanced blend, or your own part brought to the front while the others stay quieter. Loop, switch versions, and practice anywhere. YOUR CHOIR ASSISTANT Ask the built-in assistant about your choir — when the next rehearsal is, what to wear, your solo details — and get a clear answer, read aloud if you like. STAY CONNECTED See the schedule, read announcements, sign up for solos, and reach your section leaders and directors. WORKS OFFLINE Your portal and sheet music stay available offline, so you're never without your music. Resonance Link is provided through your choir — your director sets up your account and content. Sign in with the email your choir has on file.
