Tactus is the metronome for musicians who mean it. Beyond a simple click, Tactus lets you build real rhythmic sequences: sections with accelerando and ritardando, tempo and time signature changes, beat subdivisions (eighths, triplets, sixteenths, dotted eighth, sextuplets), and configurable count-in. With "Describe in words" you can dictate or type a sequence in natural language ā "120 bpm for 8 bars, then accelerate to 160 over 16" ā and Tactus turns it into a ready-to-play rhythmic plan. Study mode automatically raises the tempo every few repetitions, so you can drill a passage up to your target tempo hands-free. KEY FEATURES ⢠Metronome with synthesized and sampled sounds (wood, stick, tick, glass) ⢠Sequences with fixed, accelerando and ritardando sections ⢠Beat subdivisions: quarters, eighths, triplets, sixteenths, dotted eighth, sextuplets ⢠AI dictation and text-to-sequence generation ⢠Progressive-tempo study mode ⢠Vibration and screen flash synced to the beat ⢠Library to save your sequences ⢠English and Italian interface ⢠Native app for iPhone and Mac TACTUS PRO A one-time purchase unlocks AI dictation and writing, study mode, advanced subdivisions, unlimited library, and removes ads. No account required. Your data stays on your device.

Verdict
The clearest difference is in-app purchases: DIGIPAD at none against Tactus Rhythm's 1. DIGIPAD also leads on ads (none vs shown) and device support (4 vs 2). Tactus Rhythm's advantage is update cadence (daily vs fortnightly). On price there is nothing between them.
