Frequently asked questions
How accurate is the online metronome?
It uses the Web Audio API with a look-ahead scheduler, so clicks are scheduled with sample-accurate timing that doesn't drift like a plain interval would.
What tempo range does it support?
From 30 to 240 BPM, adjustable with the slider or the ± buttons.
What do the dots mean?
Each dot is a beat in the bar. The first (accented) beat is highlighted and plays a higher click so you can feel the downbeat.
