Bar counting metronome
Does anyone know whether a bar counting metronome exists?

I'm focusing on singing and playing the guitar at the same time and feel a visual bar counter would help me to keep in time. I was hoping for example one could program the metronome to perhaps change the tone of the metronome click after a period of bars that you set, say 8 bars. Better still it could have a light display which changed colour at the set points. I've had a little look on Google but can't seem to find anything?

I don't know of any such thing, but you could program a simple drum pattern to change the sound every so often. You could do this with the free version of just about any DAW or "drum machine" software.

I think but am not certain that some metronomes, or metronome apps for phones/tablets, can be set to have multiple pattern sounds, such as heavy down beat, light beats 2,3,4 (in 4/4 time), and different sound for beat divisions. If you can find one of those, just "reassign" the heavy down beat to your measure bar, set the "light beats" to the downbeat in each measure, and the "beat division" sounds to the light beats in each measure.
