$350 is too much expensive for Metronome. Isn't it?
---------------------------------------
Difficulty about flamenco is that unique rhythm.
While having a will to exercise in proper way with Metronome,
dedicated machine cost $150 to $350.
If there were a reasonable Metronome.
But it should work sufficiently. In addition, it should be easy to use.
---------------------------------------
Your iPhone becomes the Compass Machine. More comfortable than thought.
---------------------------------------
There is no such a reasonable great Metronome? OK, we will make it.
Project "Flamenco Compass" started from this manifesto.
Collaboration between DTM software developer from Ukraine, and iPhone app developer from Japan.
We achieved not only certain quality as an music software, but also beautiful design and agility as an iPhone app by that precious combination.
---------------------------------------
Necessary and sufficient. Simple is Power.
---------------------------------------
You can start your exercise by using preset functional rhythm patterns soon.
Addition, you can save and load your original patterns.
Real tap sound and hand crap sound available, (and more)
tempo is easily adjustable by slide bar.
Accent is also changeable its strong/weak/double/none by tapping numbers on compass.
Importantly, all those features are available in one hand.
There is no thick manual. All features works as soon as your installation.
We know that the tool without "simplicity" and "beauty", is gabage.
Even if it contains countless functionalities.
---------------------------------------
Meaning of being an iPhone app.
---------------------------------------
Anytime, Everywhere.
Means, you can confirm rhythms in a train thorough earphone.
Means, you can start your exercise as soon as you find any proper space to tap and sound.
Means you do not need to bring any additional machine, and do not need to change battery of it.
Also, it means bug will be fixed, and required features can be realized by update.
---------------------------------------
You shall buy after you get everything. Buy without knowing? What a nonsense!
---------------------------------------
Just consider what you are doing, you must find dangerous that you are buying any app based only on explanation and some screen shots on App Store.
Do not worry!
We've prepared a movie you can see how the app works actually.
Through 2 minutes short, it gives you a set of introduction about features.
You can make your mind after you see all, listen all, and get everything.

Gets the job done

For any artist looking to play around with new and interesting time signatures, this is app will help further develop your sense of time. The option to create custom tempos and patterns is a great feature for aspiring progressive rock musicians as well. The basic time signatures are appreciated too, as it will save one the trouble of having to go between apps. Despite all the bad things I am about to say about the app, it is a solid tool. The control scheme is streamlined and most of the controls work without issue. However, the BPM adjustment bar could use some adjustments; it did not register my finger immediately. When my finger would leave the screen the BPM would jump up or down a few beats, throwing off my desired BPM. I would have desired some more sounds for the metronome. The four soundsets that come with the app are all stale and abrassive, with the one entitled "Sound" going the extra mile to sound annoying. Having paid for this app, I would have expected a wider variety and higher quality of sounds. Mind you, these complaints are nitpicks in an otherwise solid application. These problems could easily be fixed with an update.
Great to practice guitar with

This is a really nice entry level app with a very visual interface. There is a much fancier app for about $30 that I have passed on because this one does everything I really need. Get that app only if you need palmas.
