Rhythm of Blue Rondo A La Turk

 What is it for?

Dance rhythms and other rhythms with notes of different sizes - and many drum rudiments such as paradiddles. Also for complex polyrhythms with notes of different sizes in each part. 

What can you do?

Enter any rhythm in musical notation or choose from one of the preset rhythms. Bounce Metronome then shows the rhythm with the bounce visuals to help you to keep in time.

Rudiments

Bounce Metronome comes with many drum rudiments included such as paradiddles, buzz rolls etc.

The "swing" feature can be used to make buzz rolls as it bounces faster and faster like the bounces of a less than perfectly elastic bouncing ball - just the same rhythm you get with a buzz roll.

Dance

Can play dance rhythms if you enter the rhythm in music notation.

For the more subtle rhythms such as Latin American dance then you need to try lilt, adjust timing of individual beats, or tap out the rhythm by hand.

Soon I plan to add an option to get the rhythm from a recording as well. The recording would display as a normal audio file 'waveform' and you would be able to click at the start of notes to mark out the rhythm.

Polyrhythmically

You can play any of these rhythms polyrhythmically too, e.g. to play a single paradiddle simultaneously with a double paradiddle and in the same time as the double paradiddle.
