Metrónomo Flamenco
English

In one sentence

Metrónomo Flamenco is a flamenco metronome made of real recordings: the compás of every palo, with its accents, at the speed you want.

In short

Metrónomo Flamenco is an app for practising flamenco with the real compás underneath: 10 palos with 1,016 real recordings of palmas, cajón and other instruments, and a wheel that shows where the accents fall. You change the speed without changing the pitch. It is made by Aprendiendo a Ser Guitarrista.

Longer

Metrónomo Flamenco was born to practise flamenco guitar with the real compás underneath, and it works just as well for dance, singing, cajón or palmas. Instead of a synthetic click, it plays real recordings of 10 palos, from bulerías to sevillanas. In “Instruments” you switch on as many as you like at once (knuckles on table, cajón, castanets, congas, palmas, frame drum and tinaja), each with its own pattern and volume; in “Full” the whole accompaniment plays. A wheel marks every beat and where the accents fall, and bulerías can be counted in 12 or in 6. You change the speed while it plays without changing the pitch, and the speed trainer raises it on its own every few compases. There are recorded fills, a reference click, and it keeps playing with the screen off. It is available in Spanish, English, German, French, Japanese and Simplified Chinese. It is a free download with a trial version, and the full version is a single in-app purchase. It is made by Aprendiendo a Ser Guitarrista, a flamenco guitar channel on YouTube.
