Full Time Signature Support: Standard: 2/4, 3/4, 4/4, 5/4 Compound & Complex: 6/8, 7/8 (322), 7/8 (223), 12/8 Subdivision Mode: Need more detail? Double the pulse for 2/4, 3/4, 4/4, and 5/4 signatures. Tap Tempo: Set your BPM instantly by tapping the screen. Preset Saving: Save your specific tempo and signature settings for quick recall during practice or live sets. Real-time Loop Counter: Keep track of your repetitions as you play. Stage-Ready UI: Supports both Portrait and Landscape modes. Stay Awake: Prevents the screen from dimming or locking during playback. No fluff, no complex menus — just the beat. Dark Metronome is completely free. If it helps your performance, feel free to buy me a coffee! Your feedback and feature requests are always welcome.
