How to use the metronome
Set BPM
First, set the number of beats per minute (BPM) that the metronome will play. Use the slider for quick changes or the minus and plus buttons for precise adjustment.
Set Beats
Set the number of beats per measure, from 1 to 12. For most music in 4/4 time, choose 4. If you just need a steady click without bars, choose 1.
Tap BPM
Don't know the exact tempo? Tap the button a few times in time with the music, and the metronome will set the BPM to match your tapping.
Why is our online metronome so good
We have done our best to make the most convenient and useful online metronome on the internet.
Simplicity
There are plenty of metronomes on the internet for every occasion, but their controls are often confusing unless you are a professional musician. That is why we kept the interface of our metronome as simple as possible, so that anyone can use it.
Accuracy
We know how important an accurate metronome is to any musician. Every click is scheduled by your device's audio clock rather than by the page timer, so the beat stays steady even when the browser is busy. You can play without thinking about anything else.
Versatility
Whatever you need a metronome for, this one fits the task and any instrument: guitar, piano, drums and more. You simply play, and we make sure the beat keeps going smoothly.
Sound
Choose the sound that suits you: wood block, click, claves, cowbell, hi-hat or the classic sharp beep. Every sound is loud and clear, so you won't miss a beat even with your amp turned all the way up.
Free
It would be strange to charge money for a tool as simple as a metronome. That is why our online metronome has always been and will always be completely free. All we ask in return is that you turn off your ad blocker on this site, because ads are our only source of income.
Online
Gone are the days when you had to buy a metronome in a shop as a separate device. Today simple tools like this are available as web applications: just open the site and start the metronome online, with nothing to install.
Metronomes
A metronome is a device that produces regular, repeating sounds at a steady pace, indicated by beats per minute (or BPM). This device has many uses for musicians and is also an essential piece of musical equipment for students and professionals. The metronome sets the musical tempo precisely, which helps keep the music together. It helps you develop your sense of rhythm and keeps a steady tempo anywhere from 30 to 240 beats per minute. Tempo has not always been written this way: marking it in beats per minute became common only in the 19th century, after the metronome was invented.
Using Online Metronome
You can play any piece both slowly and quickly. When learning a new piece, it is best to start at a slow tempo so that every note sounds clear, and then gradually work up to the original tempo. The metronome produces evenly spaced sounds that mark the beats of the music, and its tempo can be set over a wide range. It is a simple tool for keeping time, useful for learning the guitar or practising dance steps.
Many beginners believe that there are separate metronomes for guitar and for piano. In fact, there is no difference between them: all metronomes do the same job and suit any instrument. The metronome is a really useful tool, but remember not to practise with it all the time, or you risk becoming a jukebox that mechanically plays the right note at the right moment without thinking about the music.
