Hey there fellas. So as the title suggests I’m looking for a fancy metronome app for android that has a more palatable sound than my Natural Metronome. I wouldn’t mind shelling out a few bucks for something good, if it actually has a sound that is not as dull as uncooked potatoes. Being able to drum-machine a simple beat would be an amazing plus!
There’s an excellent Bodhrán metronome on YouTube. Just type in ‘bodhran’ metronome
I have used the ‘bodhran metronome’ from YouTube as well. It works pretty good and is in a lot of tempis.
It is usually in Jig and Reel mode on YouTube, as much as I can find.
Not many for Hornpipes I think.
Jon Antonsson has one on his website with reels, jigs and slip jigs: https://www.tunesandtools.com/tools
I missed having hornpipes, so I downloaded a YouTube track from a bodhrán tutor who provides simple versions of dance rhythms for learners to play along with. I looped it using Audible until it was long enough to back a set of hornpipes, exported it as mp3s at two different speeds (the speed I normally play at, plus a slower one for learning new tunes) and stuck the results on my phone. It works fine.
