About

AllGoRhythmics

Features
Read full description

AllGoRhythmics is a professional rhythm-notation tool for musicians, students, teachers, and composers who want to SEE the rhythm β€” not just hear it. Most metronome apps give you a click. AllGoRhythmics gives you a living score. Every pattern you build renders in real Bravura music notation β€” the SMuFL standard used by professional engraving software β€” with intelligent rest merging, beam grouping, tuplet brackets, and an animated comet playhead that tracks your place through the bar. β€’ REAL MUSIC NOTATION Notes, rests, beams, and brackets render with the Bravura font. Smart rest merging keeps the score clean: four sixteenth rests collapse to one quarter, three to a dotted quarter, and so on. Dorico-style compact spacing keeps even dense bars readable. β€’ TUPLETS, ANY RATIO Place any tuplet straight on the dial β€” triplets, quintuplets, septuplets, and beyond β€” engraved with proper brackets and X:Y ratio labels. Nest a tuplet inside a tuplet member when you need it. Notation and playback follow exactly what you build. β€’ LIVE EDIT, ZERO FRICTION Tap any beat to silence it. Drag the time signature to change meters. Tap-tempo a feel by hand. Edit a pattern during playback β€” your changes land on the next loop. β€’ PROFESSIONAL TIMING & SOUNDS Sample-accurate audio scheduling on a high-precision clock and AVAudioEngine β€” no drift, no jitter. Choose from eight sound sets, from claps and percussion to marimba, piano, 808, and a clean sine. β€’ TRAINER + PRACTICE LOG (free for everyone) Tap along and get scored against any rhythm, with adjustable tolerance and a results summary. Every session is logged automatically with aggregate stats and a 7-day accuracy trend. β€’ RHYTHM GENERATORS Binary Rhythms builds every 2ⁿ on/off permutation of a beat as one playlist, instantly. The new AMD (Additive / Aksak) generator builds aksak meters from 2s and 3s on a clean dotted grid at a steady pulse β€” a serious tool for odd-meter practice. β€’ PLAYLISTS, BUILT FOR PRACTICE Chain presets into practice sessions. Lock BPM or RPM across the whole playlist, set per-entry repeats, and play in order, shuffled once, or reshuffled every loop. Sort your playlists, Select-All when adding presets, and Export or Import a whole playlist as a single shareable file. β€’ EXPORT AND SHARE Render any pattern to MIDI or audio and drop it straight into your DAW or notation software. Share presets and whole playlists as files over AirDrop, Messages, or Files β€” and import what others send you. FREE β€” full power, no trial timer β€’ All notation, comet playhead, eight sound sets, and audio β€’ Trainer mode and Practice Log, unlimited β€’ Time signatures and subdivisions up to 5 β€’ 5 presets, 2 playlists of 5 entries each β€’ 2 Binary and 2 AMD generations; 5 MIDI and 5 audio exports UNLOCK PRO β€” one purchase, forever β€’ Time signatures up to 32 and subdivisions up to 16 β€” quintuplets, septuplets, odd meters β€’ Tuplets with any X or Y above 5, including nested tuplets β€’ Unlimited presets and playlists β€’ Export and import whole playlists as shareable files β€’ Unlimited MIDI and audio export β€’ Unlimited Binary and AMD generation β€’ iCloud sync across your devices WHO IT'S FOR Drummers working through Stick Control or Syncopation, jazz students feeling odd meters, composers sketching rhythms, teachers presenting in class β€” anyone who's wanted a metronome that shows what they're playing.
