Making @subdivide.app with Tap Five

I made a performant pomodoro timer for the web.

Won't lose time in the background (thanks to web workers), controllable via keyboard, and includes a brown noise generator for extra focus. It's free, enjoy ✌️

Love when user feedback leads to simple changes that make a huge difference! 🙌

Shout out to Exceptional7468 for the App Store review suggesting these fine-tuning arrows for the met bpm. Sometimes the smallest features have the biggest impact on usability ✨

Coming soon 👀

Been having some fun with Subdivide ads, but Bluesky insists on making the music skip at the end 🫠
Finally, a metronome that changes tempo for you.
No tapping. No guesswork. Just seamless tempo transitions built right into your tracks.

Speed up, slow down, or shift on a dime—Subdivide keeps perfect time the whole way through.

Interesting, so it would kinda be like a private posts.cv feed? Not sure how I feel. On one hand it feels a like a fancy exclusive club, but on the other, I don’t know of a downside to keeping it public 🤔

Subdivision Muting is here.

Turn individual subdivisions on or off in both the metronome and tracks. Build the exact pulse you need to lock in your timing and sharpen your practice.

Update now and try it out.

Oh nice! Very exciting.

Yeah, I got a little busy and burnt out so this took a backseat for the time being. But we'll get it done 🤝

New update! Export your tracks as an audio file — as many times as you need — to share with students, bandmates, and friends.

However you practice or run a rehearsal, your tracks should work for you. Subdivide makes sure they do.

Quick prototype of a new @subdivide.app feature in the works. Mute individual subdivision notes to create whatever rhythm you want. UI is extremely placeholder, but you get the idea 🙂

Thanks Andy 🙇‍♂️

I’m excited we can start considering continuity on the web like we do with native apps.
