Professional musicians are amazed by its advanced rhythm capabilities with polyrhythms, rhythm cycles, swing and drum patterns. Beginners find the bounce wonderfully easy to work with.

"...their rise and fall incorporates a 'gravity bounce' that feels like having your own conductor to help you keep in time..." Sound on Sound magazine, January 2010

* the bounce helps you get started.

* it makes it much faster to learn new rhythms

* like a conductor it continually helps you to play more exactly in time.

It has all the tempo features you need in a metronome including gradually faster and slower and go silent briefly.

RHYTHMS

* Simple and compound time 2/4, 3/4, 4/4, 6/8, 9/8, 12/8

* Swing

* Drum rudiments such as paradiddles

* Polyrhythms

* Additive rhythms (or mixed meters)

* Flamenco Compas

* You also get super -complex metronome rhythms such as:

* 4/4 over 4/3 type polyrhythms for Math Metal etc.

* 4/4 + 7/8 type additive rhythms for Jazz

* Cycles of polyrhythms as in Indian music

* Additive rhythms with any number of measures as for Balkan music.

TEMPO

* Tap in time with music to set tempo

* Set any tempo - not limited to 24 to 208 bpm

* Fractional BPM.

* Gradually get faster or slower

* Stepping progressions for speed drills

* Programmable

* Go silent briefly.

SOUNDS
