About
I wanted a metronome that made sense away from the practice room.
I’m Matt. I’m a drummer and the developer of GigClick.

Why GigClick exists
A metronome needs to do more than keep a steady click.
At rehearsal or on stage, a metronome has more to do than keep time. It needs to count the bar the way the music is grouped, load the next song at the right tempo, stay readable while you play and keep its display aligned with what you hear. I built GigClick to put those things in one straightforward tool.
It is built by a drummer, but it is not only a drummer’s metronome. It is for musicians who need a dependable pulse in practice, at rehearsal or on stage.
The practice side
I had to stop treating the click as something to follow.
I could practise with a metronome and still find my time moving once it disappeared. What helped was learning to hear the space between notes, carry the pulse through silence and move the click away from the downbeat.
Those exercises taught me to keep my own pulse and use the click to check it. I wrote them up as a guide you can use with any instrument, or without one.
