Online Metronome.
A precise online metronome with tap tempo, time signatures, accents, subdivisions, three sounds and a speed trainer that raises the tempo as you practise.
Speed trainer
Keyboard: Space starts or stops, T taps the tempo, arrow keys change it by 1 (Shift: 5). Clicks are scheduled on the audio clock, so the beat stays steady even if the page is busy.
How to use Online Metronome
Set the tempo with the number, the slider or Tap tempo, choose the time signature and subdivision, and click the beat circles to change accents. Space starts and stops; arrow keys change the tempo.
How it works
Clicks are scheduled ahead on the Web Audio clock (not timers), so the beat stays steady even when the page is busy; in a background tab it schedules further ahead. Tap tempo averages the last eight taps.
Example
At 120 BPM in 4/4 each beat lasts 0.5 s and a bar 2 s; tapping four times half a second apart sets 120 BPM.
