# Metronome animated icon

The metronome ticks. Light: the pendulum swings out to the left and stops dead on the beat, a tick arc flashing out beside the weight, then falls back to centre with a small settle. Strong: tick then tock: it hits the left stop (tick arc left), swings across to hit the right stop (tock arc right) and settles back on centre. The body never moves.
