    The only metronome you’ll ever need
    I’m a music teacher and performer. I’ve downloaded most of the iOS metronomes to review for my students. This is the one that I use. It has everything I’ve ever wanted in a metronome. It’s so good that I paid for the premium service. Joe is an awesome developer and always replies with answers to any questions. I love it. My Dr. Beat doesn’t. Show more

    Great app, too complicated to use
    It has all the features you could think off, unfortunately it is very difficult to use and counter intuitive.

    It's the best
    Title says it all; it's an invaluable tool.

    Unbelievable! No brainer purchase
    One of the things that met Apple successful as a company was that they figured out what the public wanted before the public even knew. PolyNome is an app that does just that. It does everything you could ever hope for and then six months or a year later as you have improved you’ll think of a feature that you need and you’ll discover that it’s already there. And that happens again and again and again and again and again. Brilliant work by an exceptional coder and exceptional professional drummer. Show more

    Cannot change time signature
    I bought this app thinking I could make rhythm tracks that I could download and save and you can, except only using 1 time signature at a time. If you try to change the time signature then it changes the time signature for the entire preset. I had hoped that for an app that had so many features surely it would have this capability. Show more

    So, So Much More Than A “Metronome
    I am guitarist who encounters/plays some complex “fingerstyle” rhythms (bass and treble clefs that employ different rhythm patterns in the same measures). By permitting me to enter the values of notes in the bass and treble clefs in separate beat lines (essentially like using parallel metronomes) Polynome has transformed the way I analyze and practice a new piece of music. It is simply amazing and I can’t believe I’m only discovering it now!!! I’ve read a couple of the reviews that say it’s over complicated—I am 70 years old, have owne the app for one hour, and I have already transcribed approximately 20 pretty complex measures into a new preset. The complexity derived from the seemingly endless variety of options. It is mind-blowingly amazing. I’m looking a. $150 Boss Dr. Beat metronome I have connected to my mixer and thinking, “Reverb!!” I can, without any reservation say that this is the best app I EVER purchased and/or subscribed to. I enthusiastically encourage anyone who wants to improve his/her rhythm (and who doesn’t?) to take give this app a try. Yes, it does take a few minutes to get under your fingers, but then it’s pretty darn intuitive. I simply can’t rave enough about it. So I will stop. Best of luck in your pursuit of the right beats for you!! Show more

    Game changer
    Excellent app for practicing and achieving goals

    Revolutionized my Practice Time
    This app is amazing and well worth the money. At first it’s a bit confusing, but after a month or two things should be making more sense. I’ve logged almost 1000 hours in 2 years since I got it and my drumming has progressed further than I could have imagined. I was never really good with reading music but through using this app, I can now sight read music and transcribe difficult drum parts. On top of that, I actually had fun doing it. With this app, your drumming ability is only bounded by your creativity and motivation level. Show more
