Can I use this metronome for guitar or piano?

Start slow. Make it feel effortless.

A metronome is more than a countdown. It gives your playing a steady reference so you can hear the space between the notes. Begin at a tempo you can play comfortably, then build speed without losing the groove.

Build steady fingers with an online metronome

A difficult chord change or piano passage is easier to understand when you are not rushing through it. Choose a comfortable tempo on this free online metronome, and repeat a short section against the steady click. If you only know the song by ear, find its pulse first with the free BPM tapper, or estimate it from a file with the BPM finder. Listen for notes that arrive early or late, then make small adjustments to your fingering. Raise the BPM only when the movement feels relaxed and you can repeat it consistently.

Hear where each bar begins

Practice a three-beat waltz or a four-beat groove with a clear accent on the first beat. Add subdivision clicks when you need help placing the notes between the main beats, then reduce them as the rhythm becomes familiar. When the groove feels ready, keep the same pulse in a music video template.

A few things worth knowing

BPM means beats per minute. At 60 BPM there is one beat each second; at 120 BPM there are two. Subdivisions add extra clicks between those beats without changing the underlying BPM.
