One tempo at a time

The web metronome holds one tempo. Gradus: Metronome for iPhone climbs through a sequence of tempos on its own: set the steps, and the click moves for you.

Three eighth notes per bar, with the first accented. Tempo counts eighth notes: ♪ = 240 gives four clicks per second and a bar lasting three quarters of a second. That is 80 whole bars per minute.

At faster tempos, 3/8 is often felt as one dotted-quarter beat per bar. At slower tempos, you may want to count all three eighth notes separately. Choose the approach that fits the passage you are practising.

To hear just the start of each bar, leave Clicks per beat at 1 and set beats two and three to silent. Keep the three-part division going as you play. If your score gives a dotted-quarter tempo, multiply it by three for this page: dotted quarter = 60 means ♪ = 180.
