The metronome that teaches you to keep time on your own. Ghost Beat cycles between audible and silent bars — your job is to keep the tempo when the click is gone. It's not just a metronome. It's survival training for your internal clock. GHOST BARS Set how many bars play and how many go silent. 2 on, 2 off. 1 on, 3 off. When the click vanishes, your real timing is exposed. TAP ACCURACY Tap along with the beat and get graded S through D. Calibrates to your touch latency, then measures your actual deviation in milliseconds. DAILY CHALLENGES A new timing challenge every day — survive ghost bars, hit accuracy targets, or hold tempo for a set time. PRACTICE ROUTINES Chain exercises into timed sessions. Set BPM, ghost bars, and time signature per step. Hit play and the routine runs itself. PRACTICE STATS Streaks, timing grades, session history, and weekly charts. See your improvement in timing-specific terms — not just minutes practiced. RANDOM MUTE Beats disappear unpredictably. You never know which one is next. Pure internal time training. DEEP CUSTOMIZATION 6 time signatures · 7 subdivisions (1/4 through 1/32T) · 4 click sounds · Accent patterns · Count-in · Jog wheel BPM · Haptic feedback GHOST BEAT PRO — $4.99 one-time Unlock unlimited routines & steps, unlimited presets, sound pitch control, progressive difficulty, and detailed all-time stats.
