🎵 Metronome

How the Metronome Works

A metronome produces regular, precise ticks at a tempo you set, measured in BPM (beats per minute). Our online metronome uses the Web Audio API for accurate timing.

Metronomes are essential tools for musicians learning new pieces, practicing difficult passages, or developing a consistent sense of timing. With adjustable BPM (20-280), multiple time signatures, and visual beat indicators.

Pro Tips

  • Start at a comfortable tempo where you can play accurately, then gradually increase speed by 5 BPM.
  • Practice with the metronome on the off-beats (beats 2 and 4) to improve your internal timing.
  • For slow practice (under 60 BPM), set the metronome to half tempo and play twice as fast mentally.
