Metsa
What it is
Metsa is an iOS metronome and tuner app for musicians practicing changing time signatures and mixed meter. Its free Simple mode includes adjustable tempo and time signature, tap tempo, and beat subdivisions. Advanced mode can chain bars with different time signatures and set each bar’s tempo and pulse individually. Musicians can save pieces in a library and load them for later practice. Playback can start at 50% speed and gradually rise to the target tempo. The built-in chromatic tuner allows its reference frequency to be adjusted from A = 415 Hz to 450 Hz. Other controls include a two-bar count-in, three beat-strength levels, and 10 selectable sounds. The maker describes Metsa as a practice app for classical musicians. It is offered for iPhone and iPad and requires iOS 17 or later on iPhone, or iPadOS 17 or later on iPad. Advanced mode is available for $0.99 a month, $9.99 a year, or $19.99 once for lifetime access. Help guides, YouTube tutorials, and a support email are listed.
