The CleanStems Metronome produces a browser-generated click with adjustable BPM, beats per bar and an optional first-beat accent. It is useful for singers, instrumentalists and creators preparing a consistent recording take.
Find Your Starting Tempo
If you are learning from a recording, use the BPM Tapper to get a quick estimate, then begin below that tempo. A good starting BPM is the fastest speed where you can perform the passage cleanly several times without tension or guessing.
Use the Accent to Hear the Bar
Choose the number of beats in the bar and leave the first-beat accent on while learning an entrance or rhythmic pattern. Once you stay oriented, turn the accent off to check whether your own internal pulse remains steady.
Raise Tempo in Small Steps
After several accurate repeats, increase the tempo in small increments, such as 3 to 5 BPM. If errors return, reduce speed instead of repeating an inaccurate movement. The goal is dependable timing, not a speed record.
Combine a Click with a Difficult Passage
Use Audio Looper to identify the exact problem section, then practise its rhythm against the metronome without the track. Finally play along with the loop again to confirm that timing improvement transfers back to the music.
Recording and Arrangement Checks
For a demo or lesson, record one take with a click and one without. A click-perfect take is not always the most musical take, but the comparison makes rushing, dragging and unstable entrances easier to identify.
