In their own words
Bounce Metronome Pro
Bounce Metronome Pro is a visual metronome for musicians practicing time, rhythm, and tempo. Its rhythm options include odd time signatures, flexible subdivisions, swing, drum rudiments, polyrhythms, additive rhythms, and rare rhythms. Tempo controls include tap tempo, fractional BPM, gradual changes, silent intervals, speed drills, and automatic switching between tempos and rhythms. Musicians can follow bouncing visuals, conducting patterns, and beat or sub-beat counts, or use silent metronome mode. Pro also includes accents, selectable instruments, chord accompaniment, stereo panning, and MIDI output for VSTi and sound fonts. The maker describes accessibility features for blind, visually impaired, and deaf musicians. The download includes a full-featured 30-day Pro trial that users can start when they choose. After that, animations pause every few seconds and audio times out after a few minutes unless an unlock key is purchased. Pro costs $29.99, paid once for Windows desktop; the current download can run on Linux using Wine.
