TextMetronome

TextMetronome is a rhythm practice tool built around a simple idea: type a rhythm, hear and see it immediately. Try it in your browser: https://textmetronome.peckels.com/ Instead of building patterns through menus and clicking, you enter them as text. A syntax such as 4q 4e can be entered in seconds, while fraction-based polyrhythms such as 3:2, 5:3x, 4:7e, 14:3, and 16:3 are also supported. Visual feedback helps you follow the cycle, either as a single circular view or through individual rhythmic pairings. This makes it fast to test note values, tuplets, dotted notes, rests, accents, and polyrhythmic relationships in a direct and flexible way. Whether you are practicing, teaching, composing, or checking an idea, TextMetronome helps you hear rhythmic structures quickly and clearly. # Features: - Text-based rhythm input - One single input field and one play button - Pattern Orbit Visualisation - Digital and sample based click sounds - Fast syntax such as simple patterns 4q 4e (q-uarter e-ight notes) and tuplets. up to 9 (t-riplets, etc.) - Support for fraction-based polyrhythms such as 3:2 14:3, and 16:3 but also precise ratios e.g.: 5:3t (5 clicks over 3 triplets) - Circular visualisation of rhythmic cycles - Alternative visualisation of individual rhythm pairs - Presets save - Built-in example presets - Light and dark themes
