Metronomics Metronome vs Humanome

Metronomics is not only a metronome, but a tool designed to help build a solid sense of time and rhythmic security. Use Metronomics to generate random patterns, sequenced grooves, or a combination of both to help you practice with more than just your typical click track. Enough features to keep a professional busy for years or start a beginner on the right track. Metronomics gives you complete control over how subdivisions are played — add subdivisions of any type (including custom subdivisions like 5/7) and have them played all the time, at random intervals, or in a sequenced pattern. Features: - Choose from a variety of built-in sounds for each subdivision - Generate patterns using random or sequenced variations of different subdivisions - Build drum grooves and use built-in preset patterns such as claves or ride cymbal patterns - Choose any number of beats per measure or practice mixed meters such as 4/4 + 3/8 + 5/4 where the segments of the bar get accented automatically - Use any type of subdivision. Common types like quarter notes, sixteenth notes, eighth triplets, etc., or create your own. 5/7, 23/4, no problem! - Take a rhythm and use the “offset” feature to move it to different parts of the measure to practice with - Set the metronome to speed up or slow down by a given amount after a set number of measures - Have Metronomics start with a countoff - Set the metronome to run for a certain amount of time - Share saved metronomes back and forth with other Metronomics users - Track your metronome usage. See how much you’ve practiced each day and in total, with the option to turn off time tracking - Train yourself with “independence” mode where you can set some bars to be inaudible — keep the time going yourself until the click starts again - Variable swing feel — choose how much each subdivision swings - Speech sounds for counting up to 10 that can be assigned to any subdivision (English language only) - Play in the background - Synchronize with compatible apps and devices using Ableton Link - Normalized sounds for good volume - Manual describing how to use the features and hints about how they might be useful Pro subscription features: - Circle view that allows you to visualize subdivisions as orbiting points - Grid view that lets you easily sequence patterns on a grid much like a drum machine, but with the more powerful features of Metronomics - Inspector mode — graph your own playing with microphone or MIDI input and see how you line up with the metronome - iCloud sync — sync your saved metronomes via iCloud Drive - MIDI output — set subdivisions to send MIDI data to other synthesizer apps or use built-in MIDI sounds - Custom sounds — import your own sounds for subdivisions - Custom time signature denominators — go beyond the usual 2, 4, 8, 16, etc. - Audio export — export metronome patterns as audio files for practice, sharing, or use in a DAW - MIDI export — export metronome patterns with each subdivision on a separate track Within Metronomics, there is an option to upgrade to Metronomics Pro, which is an auto-renewing yearly subscription service.

Hey, musician! Having a strong internal clock is important anytime you’re in charge of the beat. Metronomes, with their perfect time, can help build that strength. But you and your bandmates don’t have perfect time. We’re human. We fluctuate. Humanome teaches you to hear an irregular tempo and adjust your playing to it, as you must always do to stay in the pocket with other non-metronomic human beings. Humanome sensitizes you to playing more responsively and accurately – more in the groove – with any external time source, whether it’s precise or not: a metronome, a click, a drummer, a band, a sequence, a track. How it works: Humanome encourages listening. It trains you to react, moment by moment, to a fluctuating external time source. Humanome‘s varying click and limited session time enhances focus and engagement in ways a metronome doesn’t. Humanome stresses the importance of the phrase and allows for odd time signatures. Each Humanome session is randomly generated and unique. A session is around 3 minutes long and has three parts: an initial 2-phrase segment of straight time, followed by the main body of the session’s shifting tempos, followed by a 1-phrase ending segment of straight time. Setting up each session: Speed is the Humanome’s initial tempo, from 1 to 5. Intensity is how frequently the tempo will change. Beats per measure indicates time signature. By default, Humanome accentuates the first beat of each measure. This can be disabled in More Settings. Select INHUMANOME if you want to kick the Humanome into true madness from any Intensity setting. Tempo changes will be much more severe. This gives you four additional intensities. More Settings: Measures per phrase. Much of the world’s music comes in 4 or 8 bar phrases and that is Humanome’s default setting. You can change that here. *2 multiplies each Speed setting by two, from *1 to *5. Remember: It’s not a metronome. It’s a Humanome. GO!
