Intro

skip

Bounce Metronome Pro acts as your own personal conductor to help you to play exactly on the beat and in time. The animations on this page are all for the polyrhythm 3/4 with 4/4. See also: stills from the 3D Metronome animation of 3/4 with 4/4

The bounce inside ovals feature makes it easy to see the exact position in the measure of every beat.

The "Gravity Bounce" visuals help you to play exactly in time with the beat.

This is something which is particularly a challenge with polyrhythms, to keep a steady beat in each part with genuine independence.

To find the 3D metronome, download Bounce Metronome Pro, and use the 3D Bounce button in the main window for any of the metronomes, to bring up the 3D animations.

When you play these in the program itself, you can vary the tempo and show conducting patterns for any time signature. You can also display them in many ways as bouncing shapes, 3D bouncing baton, or beat numbers or words.

After you download the program, select the metronome of interest from the drop list in the main window.
