* Reword "However, the playing of the sounds should not interfere with the timing of the metronome, so a separation of the playing and timing processes may be required." Just say something simpler such as "the beat indicator should remain true to the selected tempo." Anything more there is either vague, overspecification or unnecessary, IMO. |

: Given that metronomes are aimed at helping people when playing music, the timings really don't need to be perfect. A millisecond timer should do fine provided it is coupled properly to an absolute time source so the workload of sound and <s>fury</s> GUI doesn't interfere. –[[User:Dkf|Donal Fellows]] 08:11, 11 September 2011 (UTC) |

Thoughts:
- Allow audio-only, visual-only and/or both; some languages can't provide audio outputs, but the principle components of a metronome can still be represented.
- Reword "However, the playing of the sounds should not interfere with the timing of the metronome, so a separation of the playing and timing processes may be required." Just say something simpler such as "the beat indicator should remain true to the selected tempo." Anything more there is either vague, overspecification or unnecessary, IMO.
