BackBeat Drums & Metronome Pro

A conventional metronome might handle odd meters, another tempo ramps or rhythm patterns. BackBeat does them all - and lets you combine each element seamlessly into the exact practice sequence you need.

From metronome clicks, rhythms, time signatures and groupings to tempo changes and ramps, drums, drones and intonation practice, BackBeat brings everything together in seamless sequences you can create in seconds, precisely targeting whatever you're working on.
