This metronome is better than a dream come true. The ability to change subdivisions for each beat sets this app light years apart from the rest. I play very syncopated rhythms on many instruments and have always wanted a more versatile metronome. I can usually get different rhythms but it’s the same for each beat. This app is magical. There is mention in the app that further features will be released. However, there hasn’t been an update in at least a year. 😩🤞 Hoping for an update 🤞

I really love this app. It has a minimal and easy UX that allows you to get straight to the good stuff quickly. The ability to change the sounds for up to four different pips, not only makes it more sonically pleasing than most metronomes, it also means it doubles as a great beat machine than can easily program far more complex rhythms than many iOS beat machines available. One bug I’ve noticed - the fourth pip (dark gray), which starts out default as silent, only changes sound when you scroll to another sound setting, then exit/re-enter the app. I also just discovered that whatever changes you make with a preset selected, overwrite the preset! This is definitely NOT desirable behavior and I just lost several programmed patterns due to this (not a bug per se but still annoying). Please change this so you only write to a preset when selecting to save and give it a name, to avoid accidental destructive edits.Feature requests for the developer: please add Ableton Link/midi clock sync capability, and consider compatibility with AudioBus, AudioShare, and other iOS pro audio apps! In addition, the ability to upload user sounds as sources. Would make this already quite potent tool, absolutely formidable.Four stars for now due to the bug, preset handling, and lack of inter-app integration, but I hope to come back and make it five stars in the future. Overall I’m highly impressed with Impulse!!

This is easily one of the best free metronomes on the App Store. Its minimalist aesthetic is also very pleasing. I would like to see an addition of hotkeys to make simply switching time signatures easier for those who don’t have as complex understandings of rhythms. However the customization allowed by the interface makes this app very appealing over other metronome apps; most that allow for similar customization are behind paywalls. Overall, I’m very pleased with this app and optimistic for its future!

Each rhythm has its own feel. I was having trouble feeling different subdivisions and even more trouble trying to add rests. This app is a life saver! Create the rhythm and it plays it for you. A larger selection of sounds makes it much easier to sit and listen to. It’s also just a beautiful app, a true piece of art! Its a must have for any musician and opens up a world of possibilities for rhythm in improv!
