    Default Metronome

    I am wanting to get a free app for a metronome for my iphone (I'm too cheap to buy one). Anyone have any experience on which one to get?

    I use my pup as she wags her tail. There are some tempo changes, but I live with it.

    When you spend as much time around musicians as I have (50+years), you have to develop a sense of humor.

    You can commit suicide just by talking to a guitar player for more than 10 minutes.

    'Twas sad that neither of my wives found me all that funny. If they had, it might not have cost me so much $$$ to be a free man.

    No matter how macho you are (or think you are), when you get married, they become the boss.

    I 1st learned to play drums at school in concert band with a "conuducter" keeping time so, it's always been easier for me to see the arm movement to keep time (metronomes are great but I like the longer movement of someone's arm). So, I just recorded a couple videos on my tablet at different tempos, using a click track to keep the time while I'm doing the arm movement. I made them 15 minutes each, so it's plenty long to cover most any song you're working on and can play it on a loop if need it to be longer. Then just set the tablet on a stand, table, whatever..., visible from your throne and go.
