Metronome & Drone Generator

Two practice tools in one card. The metronome sets the meter and can drop a share of the clicks — at a fixed percentage or ramping up over a session — so you keep time through the silence. The drone holds any chord you name underneath, so you can hear what each note you play is doing against it.

A2 · C3 ♭3

The number in a note’s name is its octave (middle C is C4), so a guitar’s open strings are E2, A2, D3, G3, B3, and E4. The number after a note is its place in the chord: 3 for the third, 5 for the fifth.

Press Play on either section to hear it. The tempo, meter, dropped beats and chord are fixed here; the full tool takes any tempo, any chord — root, shell or every tone, in three voices — and drops a share of the clicks so you keep time through the silence.

Silver and up, or owning any course, unlocks all of it. Already a member? Sign in with the account linked to your Patreon membership.
