ESTË - Metronome
Live-grade metronome
Free · In‑App Purchases · Designed for iPad
ESTË - Metronome is the metronome built by people who play live.
Precise, sample-accurate timing with the focus serious musicians actually want every day — on iPhone, iPad and Apple Watch.
CORE
- 30–300 BPM: tap tempo, fine tuning, direct numeric entry
- Time signatures from 2/4 to 12/8, plus custom (any numerator over /2 /4 /8 /16)
- Per-beat accents: strong, accent, muted or silent
- Subdivisions: 8th, triplet, 16th, dotted 8th; each with its own volume
- Curated sound packs: Digital, Woodblock, Rim
- Per-voice pan and volume mixer, plus master volume
BUILT FOR THE STAGE
- Setlists with song sections: each section keeps its own BPM, time signature, accent pattern, subdivision and polyrhythm, advancing after a fixed number of bars or on your cue
- Speed trainer: raise the tempo automatically as you play
- Polyrhythms: a second cross-rhythm voice (4 vs 3, 5 vs 4…) with its own timbre and pan
- Ableton Link: share tempo with other Link apps and devices on your network
APPLE WATCH
- Standalone, or paired with your iPhone
- A haptic click on your wrist: feel the beat with the screen off
DESIGNED WITH CARE
- A distinctive, screen-recordable rhythm visualisation
- A dark, focused interface with an adaptive layout on iPad
- Italian and English

Ratings & Reviews
- This app hasn’t received enough ratings or reviews to display an overview.
New this release: adjustable Swing. With the eighths active, a slider slides the off-beat from straight to a triplet feel and beyond — for blues, jazz and shuffle grooves — and you can set it per setlist section. The main-screen controls now also follow the system text size, staying legible and easy to tap at larger Dynamic Type settings.
Steadier time:
- Changing the tempo while you play no longer restarts the bar: the click stays on the beat you're on, and fixed-length sections no longer end early.
- The downbeat no longer sounds twice at speed-trainer steps and automatic section changes.
- Switching to headphones or an audio interface running at a different sample rate keeps the click's tempo and pitch exact.
More reliable setlists:
- Songs with no sections are skipped instead of stalling the setlist.
- Sound, mix and pan changes made during a setlist are kept when you leave it.
- Deleting the section, song or setlist that's playing moves on to the next section, or back to the free metronome.
Apple Watch:
- In eighth-note meters such as 6/8, 7/8 and 12/8, the wrist tap now follows the phone instead of running at half speed.
- The Watch app is now in Italian.
Accessibility and details:
- At the largest text sizes the main screen scrolls instead of slipping under the status bar, and the tempo buttons no longer cover the circle.
- VoiceOver reads the mixer sliders, the Link button and the playback banner correctly. The About pages and the creation screens are fully translated into Italian, with correct plurals.
- Settings › What's New shows the notes for every version, like these.
