Are those gun shots? I just left Baltimore, and the tone of your palmas is bringing back bad memories!

Apart from the tone, though, it looks like a cool app. I might give it a try. Thanks for posting.

looks like a lot of work went into that thing. Applaud the efforts.

I am still a fan of just the click for beginner students, but this stuff getting more and more involved for sure is fun.

Hombre... Tengo la versión Pro del metronomo instalado en el Movil.
Pero no tengo Ni Guajiras ni Farrucas. Tampoco veo ninguna actualización disponible

A ver si lo pueden poner.. porfi, q estoy justo con unos Guajiras y me vendria al pelo.

Buen trabajo en el app. Mejora un poco mas los sonidos y sera casi perfecto!

Looks very nice. One thing I would improve is the font - I thought your "3" was an "8" when I looked.

Great work!

Now there is a DEMO version so you can try it. It has a couple of free "palos" like rumbas and alegrias.
This is the link:

This is an awesome app to play around with. Even for a beginner! I have also downloaded the metronome and cajon apps. Fun!

Even for just learning palmas this is quite an interesting way. It strips back the songs and you can hear underlying beats. Helps you when you analyse songs to find out what the underlying compas is.
