“Awesome. Tempo changes can really ground the conscious mind in a greater depth of concentration.”
—Anthony M.
“The Accelerating Metronome is an excellent tool for helping guitarists get their timing right and honing their accuracy. Since I've started using it, I can feel myself playing cleaner, and more accurately. With the ability to gradually accelerate over a given time, it eliminates the need to constantly change tempo on your metronome, saving you valuable time in the practice room.”
—Levi D.
“Very useful tool.”
—David C.
“I like The Accelerating Metronome a lot, it worked really well.”

The Accelerating Metronome
Software for the practicing musician
ALERT: new version 1.9.1 now supports Windows 7/Vista/2000/XP
However, some Vista and 7 computers have trouble with sound-related applications. Therefore, Please download and try the TRIAL version before buying the Full version.
The Accelerating Metronome alleviates the tedium of having to manually adjust the tempo setting while practicing to a metronome. The user specifies the Start Tempo and the End Tempo, and the Duration of the acceleration period. The Accelerating Metronome smoothly and automatically changes tempo according to the user’s input. The on-screen controls are very simple to use; most functions can also be triggered by the keys on your computer keyboard (hotkeys). The metronome can also provide a constant tempo, like a traditional metronome.

- tempo range from 40bpm to 400bpm

- 4 selectable beep tones
- “reverse” button to switch acceleration direction
