What is Reddit's opinion of Metronomerous - pro metronome?

From 3.5 billion Reddit comments

I like this one: metronomerous

Apart from being a metronome, It allows you to compose beats and put them into arrangements. I write backing click tracks for songs that I'm learning or just to have fun making up beats when I'm commuting to work.

1. For Android, Metronomerous can do that. But as mentioned on the other comment, it's better to make changes manually.

2. Use any timer app and a spreadsheet program, like MS Excel or Google Spreadsheets.

If you get the Android app metronomerous, it can divide the beat into triplets with the accent on the beat, to help with the triplets picking stuff. Guitar gym by Shawn Baxter full of good exercises. It's free download on scribd. Get the version with all 33 lessons. https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=mh.knoedelbart.metronomerous

It doesn't have too many advanced features, but one app I use is Metronomerous. One of the best features is that it's free and doesn't have ads.

I would say that are even too reliable, since they're digital. I personally use Metronomerous (Android, free, no ads) since it has a lot of useful features:

• basic metronome
• lots of time signatures that you can manually enter
• lots of subdivisions that you can manually enter
• tapping feature to figure out the tempo of a piece
• visual feedback
• you can create playlists
• accelerating and deaccelerating options, cool for practicing

If you have Android, Metronomerous has all the functions you would ever want in a metronome for free, including a "speed builder", which increases the tempo for n bpm every x bars, both numbers that you choose.

It's the best metronome app for Android out there!

For Android

• Metronomerous: After testing about 20-30 apps, I foundt this gem. The metronome app that gives you total control on everything you will ever need about rhythm: Tap to figure out tempo, can control subdivisions in each beat, can create templates, several display options, etc. By far the best one.

• Chord!: All around app for chord shapes and scales for any key in guitar, ukulele, mandolin, banjo, etc. Until the people from JGuitar release their app, Chord! is the best option.

• ChordProg: Ear trainer to recognize chord progressions. It plays a chord progression (either by playing the chord directly or playing an arpeggio or lead melody) and makes you guess the order of the chords in the progression.

• gStrings: It's better to have a physical tuner (either as a pedal or a clip-on) but this app does the trick when you don't have one of those.

• Perfect Ear 2: Hands down the best ear training app. It teaches scales, intervals, chords and rhythms, giving you an all around training, it costs a few dollars to unlock all the exercises, but the basic kit has lots of exercises that will keep you working for a long time.

• Clock: Or any other all-purpose clock app. I always practice in Pomodoros (25 minutes work, 5 minutes rest) so I need an app to keep track of time. Any will do, I use this one because it's the native Google app in my phone.

Yes, digital metronomes pretty good. For Android I recommend Metronomerous (free).

Here's some past threads with relevant discussion. And here, you can learn the method I used to find them (I basically use that method for everything).

The best app (Android) that I've found -after trying almost 25-30 different metronome apps- is Metronomerous, it's the most complete of them all. It has the very basics like choosing the exact tempo number, change time signature, accentuate a certain beat, etc. But it also has features that any metronome should have: tap feature that let's you find out the tempo of a song right away, make your own subdivisions for practice (like accentuating the off-beat), speed trainer, "song" maker that lets you create a template with different accentuations, tempos, etc. and many more!

• Use [this free online course](www.justinguitar.com/en/BC-000-BeginnersCourse.php) as your main guide on how to play
• Use [this site](www.musictheory.net/lessons) to learn fundamental music theory every music player should know
• Always warm up before playing, I use this method
• Always practice with a metronome: For Android, for iOS, for desktop
• Set goals: For practice sessions, for the week, for the month, for the semester, for the year
• Your practice session must follow a path that leads you to accomplishing your goals

There is an app for android called Metronomerous that you can program arrangements with tempo changes.

Metronomerous Android app. Completely free/ad free. So many features.

Metronomerous for Android does that. What I like best about this app though is that it doesn't have ads.

You have to learn a few basics from music theory (really, it's music theory day 1):

• What are time signature. How to identify time signatures.
• What is the beat. How to identify the beat.
• What is the tempo. How to identify the tempo.
• Common strum patterns.
• How to figure out any strum pattern.

I'll give you an example. I'll take an easy pop song just for the example: Radioactive by Imagine Dragons.

The first thing is to get in groove with the beat. Try to tap your feet at the rhythm of the drums, usually you will find out the beat pretty easily. In this case you can hear the bass drum followed by the snare. Tap your foot every time you hear the bass or the snare. You've got the beat!

Now it's time to find out the time signature. As a default, western music is in 4/4, it's the most ubiquitous time signature (the | 1 - 2 - 3 - 4 - | 1 - 2 - 3 - 4 - | ). Let's check if it fits, begin counting (when a line begins) 1 - 2 - 3 - 4 -... You can hear that the pattern is: 1 bass - 2 snare - 3 bass - 4 snare and it repeats. So, this song is in 4/4 time.

The final step is figuring out the tempo. For that I recommend getting a metronome app, usually they come with a "tap" feature, where you tap with your finger at the rhythm of the beat. I did that. It seems that this song sits around 70 bpm (beats per minute).

So, there you have it: 4/4 time, 70 bpm with accented beats at the 2 and 4 (snare hits).

Now, what you have to do is play only using the metronome as a guide. Forget the song, just use the metronome, it will feel weird at the beginning but you get used to it. Be sure to mark down where each chord change happens within a bar/measure.

For a physical metronome, the Dr. Beat is the standard and best selling unit. For Android apps, I recommend Metronomerous and Metronome Beats.

For Android I use metronomerous, which I chose after trying around 20 different metronome apps.
