RhythmForge vs RHYTHM CHALLENGE

Most metronomes just count. RhythmForge listens back. Play along to the click and the app hears every stroke through the microphone. You see each hit land early or late, by how many milliseconds, and after the session where your timing held and where it drifted. Rushing or dragging, you'll know which. HOW IT WORKS Practice: turn on listening, play, and watch the timeline. The metronome plays one subdivision, you play another: eighths over a quarter click, triplets, offbeats. Challenges: pick one, set your tempo, play. Every beat is scored across six tiers, from Perfect (within 10 ms) to Missed. Consecutive Perfects build a combo. Your best score is kept with the tempo you set it at. Learn: can't play a challenge yet? Learn plays the notes the click doesn't cover, steps back as you lock in, and ends once you've played enough clean bars. Then start the challenge for real. Learn is free, costs no energy and saves nothing. 60+ challenges: rudiments (singles, doubles, paradiddles, rolls, gallops), grooves, world rhythms (tresillo, son clave, rumba, cáscara, mozambique, bossa nova, samba, baião, bembé), compound and odd meters, tempo ramps and silent bars. WHAT YOU GET • Live feedback on every stroke, measured in milliseconds • Rushing and dragging per session, timing spread, beat distribution • Assist: playing a different part than the click and lose it for two bars? The click steps back and your notes play until you're back. Those bars stay out of your accuracy • Tempo ramp and ghost measures (silent bars, the clock keeps running) • Per-device latency calibration, with AirPods drift corrected as you play • Works with a practice pad, snare, hand percussion, claves, djembe • 20 to 360 BPM, every standard subdivision, accents, odd meters • Hold the tempo to type it, tap it, or slide a ruler • Dark design, true black for OLED FREE • The full metronome, tempo ramp and ghost measures included • Every click sound • Unlimited practice with live feedback and every analysis screen, nothing blurred • Learn, on every challenge • Every challenge playable, nothing locked: 6 minutes of challenge time a day, refilling as the day goes, four times faster while you practice. Out of time, any challenge still gives you a free 25-second run • Your last 7 sessions RHYTHMFORGE PRO Try it free for 7 days: • Unlimited challenge time, no meter • Pattern builder: tap in your own rhythms, loop them, score them • Triplet and sixteenth targets over any click, plus per-beat patterns • Full session history WHO IT'S FOR Drummers and percussionists practicing on a pad, a snare or hand drums. Guitarists, bassists and producers who want tighter time. Students and teachers. It isn't a drum-kit transcriber: it doesn't tell toms from cymbals. It grades your time, not your kit. Privacy: your audio never leaves the phone. Timing detection runs on-device. Analytics are anonymous. Requires iOS 17 or later. Microphone access is needed for timing feedback.

RHYTHM CHALLENGE turns your iPhone into a rhythm coach. Play guitar, drums, or any instrument—the app listens through the microphone and shows how accurately you hit the beat. ► METRONOME THAT LISTENS Set BPM (40–140), choose subdivisions (quarter, eighth, triplet, sixteenth), and hit Play, then play along; the app detects your hits and scores your timing. ► NO HEADPHONES NEEDED Train through the microphone even on your phone’s speaker—no headphones required. Prefer headphones for the most precise analysis, but you’re free to just pick up your instrument and play. ► REAL-TIME FEEDBACK See “Perfect”, “Good”, “Inaccurate”, or “Miss” as you play—in tap mode, and in microphone mode with headphones. When the microphone listens through the speaker, your scores appear right after the run. ► RHYTHM CHALLENGE MODE Patterns change every bar—great for building timing under pressure. Turn it on for a tougher workout. ► DETAILED RESULTS After each run you get: success rate, a breakdown into Perfect, Good, Inaccurate and Miss, and average error (ms). In microphone mode through the speaker, the app measures the speaker delay from the count-in clicks and, when that works, shows whether you play early or late. Otherwise—for example on headphones, where that delay can’t be measured—you see how even your playing is instead. Detailed analysis adds missed and extra notes, your waveform and onset timeline, and playback with the click. ► PRACTICE TOOLS • Training history • Statistics across all sessions • Export your take as WAV, with or without the click (in Detailed analysis) • Repeat the same setup with one tap ► FREE TO USE Unlimited training sessions in every mode, no sign-up. Tap and microphone sessions run up to 30 seconds; "Just Metronome" sessions (no scoring) run up to 5 minutes. The basic patterns—quarter notes, eighths, triplets, sixteenths and rests—are free. ► PREMIUM (OPTIONAL) Unlock full 5-minute sessions in tap and microphone modes, unlimited detailed analysis (free includes 3 in-depth breakdowns, then one per short ad), 15 more rhythm patterns (sixteenths and triplets with rests, gallops, off-beat eighths), and no ads. Choose a monthly or yearly subscription—both with a free trial for eligible users—or a one-time Lifetime purchase. Built for musicians who want to improve timing and feel.
