Tone Metronome is flexible beat indicator that offers a variety of kick, snare, crash, hihat, and click drums. The volume and interval of each drum can be setup independently, creating complex drum rhythms. The program offers standard preset 2/4, 3/4, 4/4, and 2/3 drum patterns. A custom drum pattern is also available to setup custom drum patterns. Drum patterns created by the user can be saved for later use. A tempo up to 240 beats per minute is available. The program detects installed sound devices on the computer and the buffers can also be adjusted to increase performance. The drum patterns are indicated by means of a rhythm display and beat counter. This version is the first release on CNET Download.com.
