BodyBeat Metronome

response required

The device is quality, the app needs work. In the rhythm editor let us assign a different rhythm to each of the three symbols OR each beat so we can construct syncopated rhythms. Also get rid of some of the extra visuals. This is a metronome, not a space flight sim.

It’s a good metronome but it doesn’t play in the background. So I can’t read a piece of music elsewhere on the iPad while this is keeping time. Seems like a natural thing for it to do.

Awful Freezes and won’t load often .. wish I could get refund

Really liking the bodybeat pulse. Tried the soundbrenner as well, thought the bodybeat had a much better feel and really appreciated the different kinds of vibrations for accents. Like the app for this as well with the exception of a couple minor things that were overlooked in development. First being the app doesn’t rotate.The issue with that is I connect the bodybeat pulse to the lightning port on the bottom of the phone. So, I have to place the phone upside on my music stand. The app is now upside-down because it doesn’t rotate. The second thing is it doesn’t override the display auto-lock (like when you watch a video). I do also like having the visual indicator while I get used to this (and using a metronome in general… side note: this definitely seems better then audio ones for me). In order to keep the screen going I have to temporarily manually change the screen lock out to never in the display settings. Wish it auto did this like other metronome apps i’ve tried (or at least have a settings preference for this in the app itself). These two things that were overlooked I’m sure can be easily remedied in a future update and are not so detrimental that it causes me to not use this. I still really like the bodybeat pulse and this app a lot and find it very helpful while I try to build my skills.
