Metronome

Efficient, accurate, cross-platform metronome; supports volume, BPM, time signature and audio source settings.

Version 2.0 refactored most of the code, with better performance (BPM>600), less resource usage, and more accurate time signature callback.

Quick Start

Init

final metronome = Metronome();
metronome.init(
    'assets/audio/snare.wav', 
    accentedPath: 'assets/audio/claves44_wav.wav',
    bpm: 120, 
    //0 ~ 100
    volume: 50,  
    enableTickCallback: true,
    // The time signature is the number of beats per measure,default is 4
    timeSignature: 4,
    sampleRate: 44100,
    // iOS only. Keep true unless the host app manages AVAudioSession.
    manageAudioSession: true,
);

iOS audio session management

manageAudioSession controls whether the plugin configures and activates the shared AVAudioSession during initialization.

The default value is true, which preserves the existing behavior. The plugin uses the playAndRecord category, videoRecording mode, and activates the audio session.

Set it to false when the host application already manages AVAudioSession, for example through the Flutter audio_session package. The host application must configure and activate its audio session before starting audio playback:

await metronome.init(
  'assets/audio/snare.wav',
  manageAudioSession: false,
);

This parameter only affects iOS. It does not change audio session behavior on Android, macOS, Windows, or Web.

Play

metronome.play();

Pause

metronome.pause();

Stop

metronome.stop();

Volume

metronome.getVolume();
metronome.setVolume(50);

BPM

metronome.setBPM(120); 
metronome.getBPM(); 

TimeSignature

Disable accents when less than 2

metronome.setTimeSignature(4); 
metronome.getTimeSignature(); 

isPlaying

Get play state

metronome.isPlaying();

isInitialized

Getter that returns true if the metronome has completed initialization. After init is called. Not platform dependant.

metronome.isInitialized;

setAudioFile

main, accent can be set at the same time or individually

metronome.setAudioFile(
    mainPath:'assets/audio/snare.wav',
    accentedPath:'assets/audio/claves.wav'
);
metronome.setAudioFile(
    mainPath:'assets/audio/snare.wav',
);

destroy

metronome.destroy();

Tick callback

enableTickCallback must be set to true in init

metronome.tickStream.listen((int tick) {
  print("tick: $tick");
});
