Have just been playing with this simple, yet clever rhythmic pattern creator. With a background in drumming, I really find it useful to be able to enter a series of note and rest values, and not only see it appear correctly on a musical staff, but also be able to hear how the pattern sounds against a metronome. The fresh addition of time signatures and auto insertion of bars is great too. I’d also like to see the option of a highlight over the active note as the patter plays, and possibly even the option of tapping in a complex pattern and then being able to see how it looks in notion form. All things for the developer to consider in future updates anyway.
The Rhythm Calculator allows a musician to quickly input a complicated section of musical rhythm and hear it played back in perfect time and tempo. A great practice aid!
With a familiar calculator-style user interface, inputting rhythm is a breeze.
