BEECON: Metronome and Setlists

BEECON is a metronome built for rehearsals and live performance. Its displays make beats and accents easy to follow, while saved song settings let you move quickly through your set.

● Prepare your songs
Save a tempo and time signature for each song, then arrange songs in playlists for rehearsals or gigs. The same song can have a different tempo in each playlist. See the next song’s title and switch with a button or a swipe while playing.

● See beats and accents clearly
Choose large rings, a pendulum or numbers. Set each beat to strong, medium, weak or silent, and add a screen overlay or camera flash. Light theme and landscape layout adapt to where you place your device.

● Adjust while playing
Set tempos from 30–300 BPM, tap in a tempo or realign the downbeat. Save a live tempo change when you want to use it again next time.

● Sound and connected devices
Choose electronic, woodblock, mechanical or cowbell clicks, or English voice counts. Visual beats continue with sound off. With Bluetooth headphones, visual timing adjusts to the reported audio output delay. Song changes with compatible pedals, keyboards and Apple Watch require Pro.

● Free features
Visual metronome, 10 built-in time signatures, per-beat accents and rests, click sounds, saved songs and up to three playlists. Swipe song changes, screen and camera flash effects, light theme and landscape layout are also included.

● BEECON Pro
A one-time purchase unlocks:
- Song changes and playback control with compatible Bluetooth pedals and keyboards
- Beat display and swipe song changes on Apple Watch
- Unlimited playlists
- Custom time signatures: numerator, denominator and beat grouping
- Polyrhythms: two A/B rhythms sharing one bar
- Beat training: keep time while sound and visual cues drop out

Try Pro free for 7 days. The trial does not charge automatically when it ends. See the in-app purchase screen for pricing.

Saved songs and playlists remain after the trial, and existing playlists stay usable. Pro is required to create another playlist when you already have three or more, to play custom meters and polyrhythms, and to change advanced rhythm settings.

● Before you play
Songs and playlists are stored on your device. Playback stops when you switch apps or lock the screen. Camera flash requires a supported device; Apple Watch requires a connected iPhone. Pedals and keyboards must send supported key inputs. Find detailed instructions in the in-app guide.
