About PolyNome: THE Metronome
PolyNome is the ultimate tool for musicians of all levels, used by the world's top drummers including Peter Erskine, Virgil Donati, Chris Coleman, Vinnie Colaiuta, Dave Weckl, Dennis Chambers, and Will Lee. With PolyNome, you can practice, teach, compose rhythms, and perform live with ease.
The app's Public Library provides hundreds of user-created presets and practice routines to help inspire you, and the app is regularly updated with new features to make your experience even better.
PolyNome works seamlessly on your iPhone, iPad, and Mac in both portrait and landscape mode, with the option to sync data across devices. The app is also designed to run in split-screen mode on an iPad, making it a great addition to your music setup. With Premium you can even attach song charts to your Presets so you have everything you need in one place for the gig.
Basic features of PolyNome include a precise and accurate metronome, faders for subdivisions, two fully programmable independent sequencers, super-fast tempo entry and Tap Tempo, big numbers display, variable swing, any time signature, auto-stop with rep counter, countdown timer + alarm, and subdivisions from whole note to 64th notes with everything in between.
With PolyNome, you can program any rhythm, no matter how complex, add stickings, flams, drags, accents, and rolls to rhythms, generate 2 & 3-way polyrhythms with ease, generate stroke guides for rudiments, and enter any time signature (including irrational signatures like 5/6).
Upgrade to Pro or Premium to enable advanced features such as advanced voice counting, Playlists, random muting, and the ability to track your practice time, set goals, and schedule your practice sessions.
With Pro, you can import Apple Music and Spotify playlists to automatically create clicks with the correct tempos. You can create band setlists with count-offs and song notes, generate PDFs of setlists, create songs/clicks with multiple tempos or time signatures, create nested tuplets, and create a "Cue Track" by turning on Auto Announce.
You can even attach files to Presets so you can view charts for your songs right inside PolyNome.
PolyNome is also compatible with Audiob.us, AirTurn, and iRig, and the app includes 200+ more sounds, including DrumLine, and a six-octave piano keyboard.
Try PolyNome today and take your drumming to the next level!

22.07.1
Jul 2, 2022
New in 22.07.1... Transpose multiple Playlist items in one go!
Say you have a Playlist with multiple items in C Major and you want to transpose them all to D Major. Previously, you'd have to do this for each item individually. Now, you multi-select the items in the Playlist and apply the Transpose to affect them all at once. Or, you can add a Section Header and run the Transpose to the Section Header to apply it to all items in the Section.
See the Help page for a video example.

Say you have a Playlist with multiple items in C Major and you want to transpose them all to D Major. Previously, you'd have to do this for each item individually. Now, you multi-select the items in the Playlist and apply the Transpose to affect them all at once. Or, you can add a Section Header and run the Transpose to the Section Header to apply it to all items in the Section.

22.06.2
Jun 28, 2022
New in 22.06.2...
You can now long-press the accent line (when in "detached accent" mode) to view an option to Repeat Articulations. This is useful if your accent/diddle/tie pattern repeats for most of the rhythm, but not all of it. You can use the "Repeat Articulations" option to repeat it up to a point, then fill in the rest with the changed articulations.
You can now disable the default keyboard shortcuts. This is useful if, for example, you use an iPad in split view mode and you're using a Bluetooth controller to control another app. By disabling the default keyboard shortcuts you can avoid the controller triggering PolyNome when you don't want it to.
If you find any bugs, or have requests or questions, please email me - support@polynome.net

22.06.1
Jun 9, 2022
22.06.1 is a minor bug fix. Read on to see what was new in 22.05.1...
New in 22.05.1: Count-in reps for Playlists and Keyboard Shortcuts for editing patterns.
Count-in reps for Playlists
---
Say you have a Playlist where each item represents a bar in a piece of music. If you want to start playback at bar 15 but you need time to get to your instrument, you can utilise the "Count In Reps" option in Playlist Controls. If you set this to 2, for example, when you hit play on bar 15, PolyNome will play 2 reps of that bar before it starts playback properly.
Keyboard Shortcuts for editing patterns
---
If you're using PolyNome on mac, or on iPad with a bluetooth keyboard, you can now use keyboard shortcuts for quickly entering and editing rhythms and assigning stickings and articulations. Search Help for 'Keyboard Shortcuts' for full documentation.

22.04.1
Apr 9, 2022
New in 22.04.1: Compound Time Signature toggle; Return to start position in a Playlist; Clear accents/slashes/ties individually
Compound Time Signatures
---
Technically, 6/8 should be written as two groups of 3x8th notes, with the tempo being related to a dotted quarter note.
Sometimes in music with mixed time signatures, you may want 6/8 to be used as a regular time signature.
To account for the two options, you'll now see a "Compound Sig: ON/OFF" button when adding a time signature that's a multiple of 3 on the numerator.
When adding bars to a Playlist from the Add Items dialog, you must tap on the time signature to bring up a pop-up time signature picker with the Compound Sig button. This pop-up picker also contains irregular denominators (in case you're playing music with time signatures like 4/5!!)
Return to start position in a Playlist
---
In the Playlist controls you'll see an improved interface for defining what should happen when playback is stopped. You can choose to do nothing, to return to the top of the Playlist, to return to the top of the section, or to return to where playback started from.
Clear Accents/Ties/Slashes/etc
---
Previously, when tapping the Clear button when editing Accents/Slashes/etc, everything on the top line would be cleared. Now, you have the option to clear just the accents, or just the ties, or just the slashes.
Check What’s New in Help for detailed instructions and videos on how to use all these new features.

22.01.3
Jan 12, 2022
This update improves the Mixer Lock functionality (view What's New in Help for video explanation)
NEW: Mixer Lock improvements
---
- Turning on Mixer Lock will leave it enabled when you close the Giant Fader. That means you can use the regular mixer to change volumes for the entire playlist. The mixer will have a red border when mixer lock is enabled.
- When you enable Mixer Lock by tapping the padlock, the fader strip will turn dark red. This means Mixer Lock is enabled and any volume changes will be applied to the entire playlist. To apply the existing volume of the Giant Fader you’re viewing, tap the fader handle and the strip will turn bright red to indicate the volume has been set for the Playlist.
- To adjust the volume of just a single preset when in mixer lock: tap to show the Giant Fader, disable Mixer Lock by tapping the padlock, make the change, then tap the padlock again to re-enable Mixer Lock.
- If the Playlist is in edit mode with certain items selected, Mixer Lock volume changes will only be applied to the selected items.
- If Mixer Lock is disabled, but you have a Section Header selected, Volume Changes will be applied to the entire section.
NEW: Marker position improvements
---
- If you change the Marker Position of a Playlist item while in Mixer Lock, you’ll be asked if you want to set the same position for the entire playlist.
- If you change the Marker Position while the Playlist is in edit mode with multiple items selected, you’ll be asked if you want to modify it for the selected items.
- If you change the Marker Position while a Section Header is selected, you’ll be asked if you want to change it for the entire section.
Selected Items:
---
- If a Playlist is in Edit mode with multiple items selected, mixer changes or Marker Position updated will be applied to only the selected items.
