Practice in
perfect time.
Tempo de Deux is a precise, expressive metronome designed to stay out of the way—so you can listen, breathe, and play.
First steps
Begin in three beats.
The essentials are always on the main stage. Set your tempo, shape the pulse, and begin practicing without navigating through layers of controls.
Set the rhythm
Open Rhythm to select a time signature and beat grouping. Choose Custom when you want to shape every accent in the measure.
Start the pulse
Press Play to begin. The pendulum, beat markers, and moonlight particles follow the same precise audio timeline as the click.
Guides & answers
Keep the rhythm flowing.
Quick answers for the moments that matter during practice.
How does Tap Tempo work?
Tap repeatedly at the pace you want. Tempo de Deux uses your recent intervals, filters inconsistent taps, and selects a tempo within the supported 20–240 BPM range.
Why did playback stop?
A call, another audio session, or a disconnected output can interrupt playback. Check your audio route, then press Play when you are ready to continue.
Can it play in the background?
Yes. The metronome can continue while the screen is locked or another app is open. iOS may still stop audio during system interruptions.
Why does Bluetooth feel delayed?
Wireless headphones add output latency. For the tightest perceived timing between touch, sound, and motion, use the device speaker or a wired audio connection.
What does the Italian term mean?
The label above the BPM—such as Andante, Allegro, or Presto—offers a traditional musical character for the current tempo range.
Are my settings remembered?
Your last BPM, time signature, grouping, and custom accents are saved locally on your device so your next practice can begin where you left off.
