Hi Mike, Sorry a very very long wait for you, but Presto Metronome 2 is out now: https://rmatter.com/presto/
you can adjust the reverb in the settings.

V2 is missing most of the training, but that is coming (in less than 9 years!) :)

64-bit version

Long wait, I know, but Presto Metronome 2 is out: https://rmatter.com/presto/
as a Web App so it should work on all phones, tablets, as well as Mac, Windows and Linux.

Not all of the features are added to v2 yet, but they are coming :)

64-bit version

I find Presto Metronome the best SW metronome for Mac which meets my needs very well. However, it cannot be run in macOS 10.15 Catalina anymore since it’s distributed as a 32-bit application. Could you rebuild and release Presto Metronome as a 64-bit application or perhaps publish the source, so I could do it myself?

Changes & Additions from 1.1.0b to 1.2b GENERAL CHANGES -The up/down arrows next to the tempo slider can move by increments of: 0.5bpm (Hold CTRL), 0.1bpm (CTRL + SHIFT), and 0.01bmp (CTRl + SHIFT + ALT). -The Tempo is now reflected in realtime. -Initalization of training modes have be correctly set. -Ability to check for updates (Help menu). --- SCALE TRAINER CHANGES: -The Scale Trainer has a setting to play the leadingtone/subtonic before returning to the tonic (used often for classical guitar scales). -The Scale Trainer can give you a pre-count in before it begins. -The ACCENT works correctly with the Scale Trainer now (as requested). -The front face of Presto now shows the current note name and scale degree. --- KNOWN LIMITATIONS / BUGS -The main audio module needs to be run from it's own thread. [REPLICATE: Turn on Click and drag window around screen - audio haults.] -Need to store local settings so they can be reloaded and user defined presets can be saved. -Need to redesign and simplify Accel and Step Training modes.

WikiPage Known Bugs - Limitations modified by Rob

Version 1.1.0b: --- Issue: The Step Trainer has a default value that does not divide evenly Fix: This is fixed for the next release. Work-around: Select a preset. Notes: The setup of this training mode might change to always allow equal division of the duration and tempo. --- Issue: Scale trainer does not allow for the return of the leading tone before continuing the next repetition of the scale. Fix: Create a on/off switch to enable/disable this function. Work-around: None known. Notes: Although this is not common, many schools teach you to play major scales in this style: Notably the Classical Guitar. ---

WikiPage Accel. Trainer modified by Rob

The Accelerando Trainer will take a start and end tempo, along with a duration, and slowly increase the tempo until your goal tempo is reached. The increment is so small and happens so often that, within reason, you don't usually even notice the increase in tempo--allowing you to reach higher speeds in a shorter time. There are currently only a few presets built in, but soon you will be able to save your own.

WikiPage Scale Trainer Info modified by Rob

2012-05-15T01:22:58.866000Z

Currently the Scale Trainer will play any of the preset scales in time with the click. You will find this especially helpful if you are a person who plays or learns by ear. The scales can be played with any of the 128 General MIDI instruments available on most modern computers. The scales can be played in any of the subdivision patterns (quarter note, eighth, sixteenth and triplet) and at tempos from 10-500 bpm. The following scales are currently supported, but more scales and modes will follow. Major Nat. Minor Har. Minor Mel. Minor Maj. Penta-tonic Min. Penta-tonic Blues Chromatic Whole-tone Octatonic Prometheus Neapolitan Major Neapolitan Minor Enigmatic Flaminco Gypsy --------- You can use the Scale Trainer inside of the other training modes to really get the speed and accuracy you desire.
