Making music practice smarter,
one beat at a time.
Our unique metronome with muting patterns and harmonic features actively improves your internal timing and musical ear better than traditional options
Why Different is Better
We're not a traditional metronome and we don't try to be.
We're focused on unique training methods and features that actually improve your musical skills. And there is a lot more to come.
Muting
Shed It Music
Allows muting beats in cycles or randomly to test your internal timing.
Traditional Metronome
Only provides a steady beat.
Musical Context
Shed It Music
Drones and chord progressions give you musical context while running scales and other exercises.
Traditional Metronome
Simple percussive sound. You can use loopers and DAWs to add harmony, but we make it easy and require no extra setup.
Beat Emphasis
Shed It Music
No accents or time signatures. You keep track of context yourself, as you would playing with others.
Traditional Metronome
Provides accents and subdivisions - great for initial understanding - but can also become a crutch.
Purpose
Shed It Music
Shed It's metronome improves your internal time and your musical ear at the same time.
Traditional Metronome
