GOTronome vs Celestial Strings

GOTronome supports your band practice with big bright visual beats: every band member can see the beats even if they cannot be heard. It also serves as rhythm trainer with two advanced features unique to GOTronome: 1- Silent Bars: e.g. play the beats just every other Bar (or every 2, 3...). Challenge yourself, see if you can keep up with the rhythm! 2- Bar loop: when working on a phrase or solo, set the number of bars to keep track of where you are, while playing to the beat. 3- Either as Metronome with configurable clicks or as drums + bass accompainment with styles GOTronome was initially created to help the GOT band rehearse. The GOT band was formed in 2023 by three 9-year-old friends and has performed at school events in front of big and enthusiastic crowds ever since. We believe that this app can be useful to other musicians, who are looking for a lightweight simple and effective metronome and a rhythm trainer. Therefore we published the app and hope you will enjoy it as much as we do.

Celestial Strings is a practice companion for guitar — six focused tools, no subscription, no streaks or badges nagging you to keep a habit alive. Just the instruments you actually reach for between practice sessions. ORACLE — TUNER Real-time pitch detection built on the McLeod Pitch Method, tuned by ear against a Python reference implementation before a line of Swift shipped. Works for any tuning your instrument uses, with a capo control that shifts what counts as "in tune" without changing which string you're touching. PULSE — METRONOME A clean, accurate metronome with every time signature you'd actually use, swing subdivisions, and a tempo that's remembered the next time you open it. CODEX — CHORD LIBRARY & FRETBOARD Every common chord — majors, minors, sevenths, sus2/sus4, add9 — with real, hand-verified fingerings, not algorithmically nearest-fret guesses. Explore the fretboard note by note, or drill chord changes against a real strum pattern (down-up, pop-rock, reggae skank, and more) at your own tempo. LOOM — FINGERSTYLE TRAINER Learn and practice fingerstyle patterns with a hand diagram that shows exactly which finger plucks which string, in real time. Build your own patterns in the custom editor, or start from patterns you already know. TRIALS — FRETBOARD TRAINER Name the note at a given fret, cold. The fundamental skill under every other room, drilled directly. RIFFS — SONG LIBRARY Real riffs, transcribed accurately — down to the bends, pull-offs, and slides — not simplified stand-ins. Play along at your own pace. No accounts. No ads. No streaks. Just an instrument's worth of tools, built by a guitarist who wanted them to exist.
