Building a Better Metronome
Practicing with the right pulse changes everything. In this post we share our approach to dotted-quarter feel in compound meters, per-beat accents, and subdivision control designed for real musicians.
Highlights
- Dotted-quarter pulse in 6/8, 9/8, and 12/8
- Per-beat volume accents (mute, low, medium, accent)
- Per-beat subdivision chips: OFF → 2× → 3× → 4× → 6× → 8×
