Zune Applet: Metronome
Creator: DiNoGames
Version: Beta
Description:
As a result of 3 hours of work I present a Metronome for the Zune.

The Metronome was designed to work with frequences of up to 208 bpm but for some reason the Zune seems not to work at a steady speed in the higher bpm regions.... You will notice this when listening to the ticking sound. I will investigate where the problem lies (but it seems to me that the SoundEffect.Play method needs differing time to play a sound each time it is called). Away from that I think the timing works well in the lower regions. It should work fine at least until 120 bpm. But I am no musician so please test it out yourself.

Anyway, just start it and chose the bmp rate with up and down DPad keys.

Press BACK to quit. Thats it.
