The musical metronome
A metronome that feels musical.
Hear the pulse, shape the grouping, and practice the phrasing of acoustic, folk, Irish, jazz and traditional music.
Play it here
The complete browser edition is free. It plays through your current device output and remembers your settings on this browser.
Ready
Changes are immediate and stay on this device.
Meter sets the number of written beats and the note value. Compound meters automatically use a dotted-quarter pulse.
Tap a numbered beat to start or remove a group. Group starts can click, accent, or simply guide the eye.
Divide each main pulse into two, three, or four equal parts—or leave the space open with Beat only.
Accent marks emphasis, Beat carries the main pulse, and Subdivision fills the space between. Preview any sound before you play.
Name the current setup. Your custom presets remain in this browser alongside the five starters above.
Built around feel
A reel, jig, jazz backbeat and seven-beat phrase ask for different kinds of attention. Click Two Three lets you decide where the sound belongs—and where silence communicates more.
The full toolkit
Everything here is available in the free browser edition.
Set 20–400 BPM by feel, then land precisely with ±1 controls.
Build 2+2+3 and other phrases visually—without typing a formula.
Mix wood, rim, hat, shaker, stomp and bass-drum voices by role.
Use the pulse ring or analog arm with live beat and group numbers.
Free online · Native when you want it
The browser metronome stays free. The paid native editions are for musicians who want an instrument-like tool ready from the home screen, dependable offline, and built more deeply into the device.
