Check Out the Astonishingly Versatile Bounce Metronome Pro
From 2/4 time to polyrhythms,...
“ their rise and fall incorporates a ‘gravity bounce’ that feels like having your own conductor to help you keep in time...” Martin Walker, PC Notes, Sound On Sound Magazine, 2010
Beginners find the bounce wonderfully easy to work with.
This metronome can handle just about any rhythm including all time signatures (even odd time), swing, polyrhythms, rhythm cycles, drum rudiments and many rare rhythms,,...
It comes with special features which are really useful for your metronome practise, such as gradually faster and slower , stepping progressions, and go silent briefly.

5/4 - one of the rhythms of Bounce Metronome Basic
* Simple and compound time 2/4, 3/4, 4/4, 6/8, 9/8, 12/8
* With up to four subdivisions of each beat - e.g. 16th notes (semiquavers)

Bounce Metronome Pro has many more rhythms - much desired by musicians, but rarely found in a metronome. With separate views to make it easy to work with each type of rhythm, you get:
Paradiddle - here played with gradual tempo changes faster, then slower then faster again repeating Find out more »
* Swing
* Drum rudiments such as paradiddles
* Polyrhythms
* Additive rhythms (or mixed meters)
* Flamenco Compás
You also get super -complex metronome rhythms such as:
4/4 : 4/5 : 4/3 as a harmonic polyrhythm with gradually changing tempo. These rare 4/4 over 4/3 type rhythms are a much desired feature of a metronome for Math Metal and of interest to composers generally, here it is used with harmonic polyrhythms so each rhythm plays a different pitch with the pitches related to each other via the harmonic series
* 4/4 over 4/3 type polyrhythms for Math Metal etc.
* 4/4 + 7/8 type additive rhythms for Jazz
* Cycles of polyrhythms as used in Indian music
* Additive rhythms with any number of measures such as for Balkan music
* The fascinating golden ratio polytempi - which never repeat exactly, - the "most polyrhythmic" rhythm you can get
All of these rhythms are included in your purchase of Bounce Metronome Pro - yours for $29.99 (with discounts)

Bounce
These bounce visuals help you at all levels, from beginner to pro, in many different ways
- When you first play with a metronome, you may well find it surprisingly hard to keep in time with the clicks - and the visual bounce helps you get started.
- The visual bounce lets you see each beat coming. This helps you to play exactly in time in a relaxed and professional way.
- For experienced pros - it also makes it much faster to learn new complex rhythms and ones with irregular timing.
- For everyone, the bounce continually encourages you to play more exactly in time, much as a conductor does with his baton.
