A clearer metronome

Time is more than a blinking light.

Common Time shows the structure behind the click. You can see the meter, grouping, pulse unit, and current position before you press Start—and while you practice.

01

Notation first

One complete bar stays visible, so the click always has musical context.

02

Flexible meters

Use familiar presets or shape irregular meters with groupings that add up clearly.

03

Practice focused

Tap tempo, count-in, two click characters, and compatible subdivisions—without dashboard clutter.

Built around the bar

Odd meters should feel organized, not mysterious.

Choose a meter, see its grouping, and hear the hierarchy. Changes made during playback wait for the next bar so the music stays coherent.

  • Presets from 2/4 and 4/4 to grouped 5/8 and 7/8
  • Quarter notes, eighth notes, triplets, and sixteenth notes when they fit
  • Visual marks for downbeats and group starts
  • System, light, and dark appearance
Time signature presets and a four four notation preview Subdivision choices including quarter notes, eighth notes, triplets, and sixteenth notes

Musical by design

The pulse you need.
The information you want.

Simple when it can be.

Set the BPM, press Start, and keep playing. The primary screen stays calm and readable.

Specific when it matters.

Open meter and subdivision controls when your practice needs more detail—not before.

Inside the app

Every control earns its place.

The interface is built for quick decisions during practice, with large controls, legible state, and a restrained paper-and-ink visual language.
