BPM Metronome Reference
Every page below opens the metronome pre-set to that exact tempo — no tapping required. Pick a BPM and start playing instantly.
Largo — 40–74 BPM
Broad and slow. Each beat has weight. Ideal for technique isolation, expressive slow movements, and sight-reading complex notation at a manageable pulse.
Andante — 75–119 BPM
Walking pace — relaxed but purposeful. The natural home of ballads, Moderato classical works, and hip-hop grooves that need space.
Allegro — 120–167 BPM
Lively and driven. Dance music, rock, and fast classical repertoire all cluster here. The full-speed goal for most technical practice.
Presto — 168–204 BPM
Very fast — into the territory of automaticity. Technique must be pre-programmed; conscious control gives way to trained reflex.
Prestissimo — 205–300 BPM
As fast as possible — extreme virtuoso territory. Subdivisions blur into texture; these tempos serve as speed benchmarks and physical ceilings for technical development.
