Groove Metronome release history

Latest version: v1.4.2.

1.4.2

  • Teentaal claps on beats 1, 5 and 13. Beat 9 is khali: you still hear it, but it is not a clap.
  • Adi tala claps on 1, 5 and 7: the laghu of four, then the two drutams.
  • In 6/8 and 7/8 one click is named a quaver, in 2/2 a minim, and in x/16 a semiquaver. 4/4 is unchanged.
  • Tempo words are in order: 90 is Andante moderato and 100 is Moderato.

1.4.1

  • New click sounds: real marimba, woodblock, cowbell, claves and rim recordings, cut so every click lands exactly on the beat. The marimba rings shorter, so fast subdivisions stay clean.
  • Accents & volume, right under the controls: tap a beat to make it an accent, tap again to put it back. Soft and Off are one tap too, with a slider for each level and the main volume.
  • By default the notes between the beats play on your own click, softer. You can still pick a different instrument for them.
  • A tidier dial: no stray numbers beside plain beats, no yellow dot in the middle, and the tempo name shown once.
  • The cleaner 1.4 layout with one place for each tool. Your tempo, presets and setlist are kept.

1.3.1

  • Groove Metronome for Mac now checks for signed updates by itself once a day. It always asks before downloading and again before installing, and never while the click is running.
  • Check for Updates… in the Groove Metronome menu checks right away; Check for Updates Automatically switches the daily check on or off.
  • Universal app: runs natively on Intel Macs as well as Apple silicon. Tempo, presets and setlist are kept.
  • Developer ID signed and notarized by Apple. Copies older than 1.3.1 need this download once; after that updates arrive inside the app.
