FAQ

What is this snare tool focused on?

This tool is focused on time signature feel: grouping, finding beat 1, and staying oriented across measures. It highlights group starts so you can place accents consistently.

Do I need snare audio files for this to work?

No. The tool works with built-in click accents. If you add snare samples in /sounds_snare/, the tool will play them instead.

What does Core Rests do?

Core Rests adds simple rests so you practice counting silence. Choose the rest type from the dropdown; the selection is shown in each measure.

Where do snare sound files go?

Create a folder named /sounds_snare and add hit.wav, accent.wav, ghost.wav, rimshot.wav. If missing, the tool falls back to clicks.
