Frequently Asked Questions

What is a metronome?

A metronome produces a steady pulse to help musicians play in time. Mechanical or digital, its purpose is the same: keep you on the beat.

How should I practice with a metronome?

  • Start slowly. Set the BPM below your target and master the passage before speeding up.
  • Increase gradually. Raise the tempo by 5–10 BPM at a time.
  • Listen closely. Align your notes with the click until it almost disappears.
  • Use Tap Tempo. Tap with a recording to find its BPM, then practice at that tempo.

What BPM should I practice at?

Start at a tempo where you can play perfectly, even if it feels slow. Many exercises begin around 60 BPM and build from there.

What do Italian tempo markings mean?

Largo, Adagio, Andante, Allegro, and Presto are traditional terms that describe tempo ranges in classical music.

Is this online metronome accurate?

Yes. Its audio engine schedules beats at sample level for precise, drift-free timing—the same approach used in professional music software.
