Pianist vs Metronome

The first widely available mobile multi-touch piano, Pianist has been featured in a number of Apple advertising campaigns and was one of the 'Awesome iOS4 Apps' in an Apple iTunes promotion. Sound On Sound magazine listed Pianist in its pick of the Top 20 iPhone Apps, and T3 Magazine in its Top 100 iPhone Apps. Pianist has also been recommended by media sources such as the Mail On Sunday and Fox News. Pianist is considered so influential that it has now been listed as one of three examples of musical instrument apps in the primary academic reference: "The Grove Dictionary of Musical Instruments". - Full 88 key piano keyboard sampled from a real piano for maximum authenticity. - Record and save your compositions for later playback. Overdub as many times as you want, and remove unwanted notes. - Virtual "Soft" and "Sustain" pedals, and expression depending on where you press the key. - Optional dual keyboard layout allows you to reach even more keys without the need to scroll. Up to four octaves can be displayed and played at once. - Stay in time with a completely configurable metronome.

PRACTICE SMARTER. PLAY WITH BETTER TIME. Metronome Plus was created by a musician and educator for the way musicians actually practice. A metronome can tell you where the beat is. A great practice tool should help you develop better time, master difficult passages, and eventually need the metronome less. PRACTICE WITH A PURPOSE Slow difficult music down to where you can play it correctly, then gradually build toward your goal tempo. Instead of simply repeating a passage and hoping it gets better, turn it into a series of achievable steps. Accuracy first. Speed follows. BUILD TIME YOU CAN TAKE ONSTAGE Following a click isn’t the goal. Developing a reliable internal pulse is. Use Metronome Plus to recognize where you rush or drag, strengthen rhythmic consistency, and become more confident maintaining the pulse on your own. MAKE THE METRONOME FIT THE MUSIC A scale, orchestral excerpt, jazz chart, technical exercise, and ensemble part don’t necessarily need the same kind of click. Metronome Plus gives you the flexibility to shape the beat around what you’re practicing and the problem you’re trying to solve. FOR MUSICIANS AT EVERY LEVEL From students developing their first sense of steady time to experienced musicians preparing for tonight’s performance, Metronome Plus is designed to stay useful as your musicianship grows. Practice time is valuable. Spend less of it mindlessly repeating and more of it actually improving. METRONOME PLUS Practice with purpose. Play with confidence.
