What people are saying about PolyNome: Peter Erskine (Steely Dan, Weather Report, Steps Ahead, Kate Bush) : "PolyNome is great for teaching, practicing and rehearsing. Tempo input by way of the number pad is a terrific feature, and the subdivision possibilities are endless. Plus, this is the only metronome I've used that you can actually LEARN from. Simple and brilliant: simply brilliant." Will Lee says. "Wow. Polynome is a brilliant tool for drummers and any musician. It allows you to understand precisely what subdivisions among bars of time feel like, teaches you the drum rudiments, and so much more. I love "time check" where it'll leave bars of silence in between bars of click to see if your groove stays in time. One of the best apps for your toolkit."
