Do you practice with a metronome click?

The metronome is useful for locking in tempo. And Bombómetro also includes a professional traditional metronome.

But when we play folk music, rhythm isn't just a steady pulse. There's articulation, accents, polyrhythm, and dialogue between instruments.

Bombómetro is designed for that: so you can practice with real folk percussion loops, recorded by Beto Merino, and work on rhythm within a musical context.

Getting started is easy

1

Choose a rhythm

Chacarera, Zamba, Gato, Vidala, Chaya, Candombe, Huayno and more.

2

Set the tempo

With slider, tap tempo, or by entering the value directly.

3

Hit play and jam

Hear the real folk rhythm while you practice your instrument.
