Release notes

v2.23

The screen can now flash on the beat

The screen lights up with the click. It helps when it's hard to follow the beat by ear, or when you watch a device on a music stand or in front of a drum kit from a distance.

Changes

  • Turn it on under Beat flash in Display Settings in the menu. Accented beats light up the whole screen and normal beats light up its edges. Muted beats don't flash.
  • Flashes are capped at three per second, so at fast tempos only accented beats flash.
  • It also works in full screen. Combine it with mute to keep time by light alone.
  • In Edit Shortcuts, you can assign a key to toggle the beat flash (no key is assigned at first).
