AudioKit releases "Hey Metronome" voice-activated metronome for iOS

AudioKit has announced the release of Hey Metronome, a new voice-activated Metronome for iOS. It allows you to play and practice hands-free using voice commands. It's now available in the app store for a special 99 cent intro price.

This is the first music app to use the new on-device voice recognition from Keen Research. This allows Hey Metronome to process voice commands without the internet. There's no need for Siri or Alexa. Everything is done on your phone.

Violinists never have to take their hands off their bow. Guitarists can keep their hands on their strings. Effortless play and productivity—all without touching a device.

Sounds
Hey Metronome includes exclusive sound design from multi-platinum producers. You'll experience drum beats, classic booming drum machines, and sounds designed to inspire and limit ear fatigue.
