Approved and used by Mike Mangini (Dream Theater, Drummer of the Year*), Tempo Advance is the metronome app to bring your musicianship to the next level. Now our exclusive consultant, Mike has been using Tempo Advance since its inception four years ago as a practice tool and an invaluable companion for his Rhythm Knowledge drumming system. The new Polyrhythm Mode enables concurrent playback of two meters with different beats per measure, synced on the bar. Find out what any combination of up to 20 beats per measure sounds like. Retaining the hyper-accurate audio engine from our bestselling Tempo, the UI on Tempo Advance has been rethought to focus on the metronome visual cues. Auto setlist advancement, accelerando, ritardando and playback tracking makes it possible for you to program count-ins or complex songs with varying tempo, time signatures and rhythms.

    Worth the money!
    My guitar teacher suggested I buy this app because of its abilities to set and keep polyrhythmic time. The pleasant clave sound of the clicks is a huge improvement over the noises my prior free metronome app made. While it is a bit challenging to navigate and has many more features than I will likely ever need, the ones I use regularly have proven to be well worth the small purchase price. Musically I have improved by using this app. Show more

    Definitely not an upgrade from “Tempo”…
    I paid for Tempo Advance because it seemed there was ZERO support for it’s older brother, Tempo. In THAT app, constant crashes when trying to export any set list - native tempo file or text. So, I got Tempo Advance. From the word go, this is a VERY confusing metronome. I’ve played for years and the polyrhythms it creates are impressive, but sometimes you just want 16th notes over the 8th notes to help keep you in the pocket. This took me about 15 minutes to figure out. No big deal; learning curve, so this app is awesome and its just me. *sigh* I am a drummer on a worship team, so our repertoire is 80+ regarding quantity. I talked my drumming compadres on the worship team to get tempo (at first) because we could maintain a “database” of songs, and simply send the set list out every month. That did not happen as mentioned above. There are a few features that I just have not found in Tempo Advance, and they are pretty crucial. 1) Tempo Advance does not allow you to sort the songs alphabetically - scratch that - at ALL! MAJOR show-stopper for me, as we have 80+ songs! Why would you need it in in alphabetical order? Allow me to continue, 2) You can’t add songs from any list! This seems stupidly odd! In Tempo, I could “Add songs from any set list.” Not in Tempo Advance! Mr. Mangini is one of the most influential drummers in the world, but Frozen Ape needs to focus their efforts on keeping their customers happy, not Mr. Mangini. They are sucking at doing that. So, why such a “good” rating for such a “bad” review? The metronome is amazing if you only want to practice. It helps in learning polyrhythms, as it states. It does a lot of things well, but it does not come close with things that are practical. I wished I’d never spend my money on it. Tempo Metronome did everything I needed, and I don’t have to recreate my MASTER list (even if I can’t share it; but, hey! it doesn’t matter which app you have - none do!) Show more

    100 stars
    Loooooooove this app. Super helpful- super versatile. One of the best practice aids I’ve ever come across
  • Hulu Frog, 24.05.2022
    Perfect if added a RANDOMIZER
    if there was a setting where u can choose what percentage of a change u want from your current beat and/or tempo, that would make this app complete ??mutate percentage randomizer function pls??? Show more

    Good for what you need
    Don’t get me wrong, this is the best app for a metronome available…with that being said HOW IN THE WORLD DO YOU NOT HAVE SPLIT SCREEN AVAILABLE. Fix it. Gigging musicians need cheat sheets and guides for new or first time performances….why split screen is not built in yet is mind blowing to me. ESPECIALLY on the iPad version….. Show more

    Tempo Advanced
    I use this metronome app frequently for my own practice as well as during teaching individual lessons or coaching chamber music. It is reliable and the sound is strong and pleasant. The only caveat is that it opens the polyrhythms inadvertently quite frequently which means I have to stop and take the steps to cancel it. The other issue is that it will revert to 160 without touching anything. If they could build in a way to keep it from doing those two things that happen with a slight touch I guess then I would give it five stars. Show more
