First release: the looped bar, tap tempo, and the pendulum.
The tempo you keep, with a sample-accurate click.
A metronome is judged on one thing: whether the beats are really evenly spaced. This one schedules no beats. It renders **one whole bar** into a buffer, with the clicks exactly where they belong, and hands it to the audio engine to loop: from then on the spacing is accurate to the sample, and no timer can be late because the phone is busy doing something else. WHAT IS IN IT • 30 to 300 BPM, with a slider and two buttons for single steps. • Bars of 1 to 8 beats, the first accented — it clicks higher, so a bar can be heard as a bar without counting. • **Tap the tempo**: four taps and it goes at that speed. The average of the taps, not the last one, so one clumsy tap does not throw it away. • A pendulum that swings from the same number the sound was rendered from: what you see and what you hear are the same arithmetic. • Haptics on the beat, if you want them, with the accent felt harder. • The screen stays on while it is going. WHAT IT DOES NOT DO • It asks for **no permissions at all**. • No account, no sign-up. • No audio files: the click is computed by the app, which is also why the tempo is exact — a recorded click would have to be scheduled, and scheduling is what drifts. • No servers, and no network except for the ads. PERMISSIONS Internet only, and only for the ads that keep the app free. Privacy policy: https://mindcontact.app/mcma-metronome/privacy/
