About

This circular metronome is a free practice tool for musicians who want to see a rhythm as well as hear it. It is made and maintained by Yawaraka Kobo.

Who makes this

It is built and written by a guitar teacher in Japan who runs a private studio. The tool started as something used in lessons: students could hear a polyrhythm but not see where the pulses met, and a circular dial turned out to explain it faster than words did. The practice guides come from the same place — they are the explanations that get repeated most often in lessons.
