Metronome

The Gibson Learn & Master Guitar App metronome is a practice tool that produces a steady pulse to help you play rhythms accurately. The pulses are measured in beats-per-minute (BPM). Common uses of the metronome are helping you to maintain an established tempo while practicing, and learning difficult passages.

The first step in metronome use is to understand time signatures. Time signatures are found at the beginning of a musical piece, after the clef and the key signature. Time signatures (also called meter signatures) consist of two numbers. The top number indicates the number of beats in a measure, while the bottom number corresponds to the value of the beat. Most often, you will see 2, 3, 4 or 6 beats per measure. Beats are commonly half notes (the bottom number of the meter signature is "2") or quarter notes ("4") (the bottom number of the meter signature is "4").

You can set the time signature by clicking on the "4/4" button, this will allow you to select you time signature. You can set your desired Beats Per Second (BPS) by using the scrolling dial in the center of the screen. Adjust it up or down and the readout will tell you the exact BPS you are setting. You can turn on or off the sound indicator. In the "Off" mode the needle display will pulse, in the "On" mode you will hear a 'tick-tock' sound.
