A visual as well as audio metronome that conducts musically styled beat patterns over your desktop for you to follow while practicing.
These patterns are based on Max Rudolf's "Grammar of Conducting" as well as my own professional conducting experience of 20+ years.
This metronome can also be a learning tool for conductors by using the Conductor's Point of View mode.
If you need to practice without the constant click, perhaps when practicing with headphones on, just turn off the sound and follow the baton.
