One tempo at a time

The web metronome holds one tempo. Gradus: Metronome for iPhone climbs through a sequence of tempos on its own: set the steps, and the click moves for you.

It is not on the App Store yet.

Fifteen eighth notes per bar, with Tempo measured in eighth notes per minute. Grouping offers two starting patterns: 3+3+3+3+3 and 4+4+4+3. Each puts a loud click at the start of every group.

Choose 3+3+3+3+3 for five equal dotted-quarter beats. At ♪ = 240, each larger beat lasts three quarters of a second. Choose 4+4+4+3 for three equal groups followed by a shorter fourth group. Count the eighths through the final group so the next bar does not arrive as a surprise.

These are options, not the only ways to group fifteen eighths. Use the beat buttons to match a different pattern in your score. Once you can follow it, leave Clicks per beat at 1 and silence the clicks between group starts to practise with fewer cues.
