I have no experience with programming, but I'm desperately in need of a simple but reliable flash metronome that has a range of 40-440 b.p.m (beats per minute). The outlook should look exactly like so:



I need the output to be a .swf file. The timing should also be precise on both the higher and lower end. Can anyone make this project for me? I'd be incredbly grateful. You'd totally make my day...

Here are some examples, if that helps:

startTime = getTimer();
minTimer = startTime;
n = 1;
freq = 333;  // <- 3 beats per second or 180 bpm
metroI = setInterval(metroF, freq, freq);
function metroF(compensatedFreq) {
    errorTime = getTimer()-startTime-freq;  // this is a correction factor used 2 lines below
    clearInterval(metroI);
    metroI = setInterval(metroF, compensatedFreq-errorTime, compensatedFreq-errorTime);
    if (getTimer()-minTimer>=60000) {  // this allows a test of the number of beats recorded in about 1 min
        clearInterval(metroI);
        trace(n);
    }
    startTime = getTimer();
    n++;

}

Try this - you can d/l the source FLA file too

Wow, thank you very much. That's surely better than anything I've been able to find on google, but I was looking for one what a bit less space consuming, and able to handle chromatic increments of bpm, not so much a slider.

Still an amazing resource though, if all else fails. But I hope actually hoping someone could make this for me, while maintaining the accuracy of it all...

You might want to head over to Flashkit - www.flashkit.com, someone there might be able to help you out.

Can't you program it for me, LadynRed? I hear its fairly simple to make, given the criteria...? I'd very much appreciate the help. I'd do it myself if I knew how...

I'm afraid that would be more Actionscript than I could handle, which is why I made the suggestion.
