Metronome
« on: March 28, 2011, 10:30:03 pm »
meh... I was bored, so I made a metronome with axe. First input the speed(60=1 beat per second), then it will invert the screen on every beat.
AXEMETRO is the source, and MTRONOME is the compiled version

if someone could make screenshots or something?

Just wondering, how accurate is it? Is it based on the watch battery?
This would be interesting, since I would never forget to bring it around >.<

I have a whole sheet music viewing/editing program in progress on my calculator, it's just very, very slow going.  I should look into adding this.

could be optimized a lot, though. I can think of an optimization already, anyway, it uses the pause command, combined with a formula, to figure out how long the pause will be. It seems to be pretty much accurate when checked with a metronome. Also, for the sake of accuracy, how many milliseconds does

I would assume he counted the cycles in his code.

But not all calcs are created equal in terms of speed, so cycles would be not that reliable?

It would be the most reliable method though, because that amount is constant.
methinks I am right.

Well, it isn't too big of a deal if you're playing alone, and if you're playing in a group, you really should be following the conductor anyway.  I think it's a good tool.

Not orchestra, Advanced Wind Ensemble and Advanced Jazz Ensemble.  There are about four string players at my school.

Not enough to matter, I'm guessing. A couple hundredths of a second.

Yeah the issue is that not every calc run at the same speed. I think 83+SEs even run ASM programs about 10% slower than TI-83+s. THe only real accurate way to do it would be to use the 84+ clock, but then your program wouldn't run on older calc models. It can be useful, though, if the inaccuracy isn't too big.

The 84+ RTC clock is terrible for timing, because it only reports seconds. The crystal timers of the 83+SE/84+(SE), however, are great for timing, but I don't think Axe supports those...

I haven't actually checked out the program yet (I don't have a link cable with me), but if it doesn't already support a tap-tempo feature, that could be a useful addition. That feature also means you don't have to worry about speed differences between calculators.
