Practise in the pocket, not on a grid
The big button above opens our online metronome already set to 140 BPM. Unlike a plain click, it can groove in named human feels — swing, the Dilla pocket, behind the beat — so 140 BPM can lope or push instead of marching. Not sure of your song's tempo? Tap it out and we'll read the BPM for you.
