About This Metronome

This metronome uses the Web Audio API with a lookahead scheduling algorithm for rock-solid timing. Unlike metronomes that rely on setTimeout alone, audio events are scheduled up to 100ms in advance, eliminating drift and jitter common in JavaScript timers.

The visual beat indicators and pendulum are synced to AudioContext time via requestAnimationFrame, so what you see stays in sync with what you hear.

Tip: Use Tap Tempo by tapping the button in rhythm with a song — after 2–4 taps the BPM is automatically calculated from the average interval.
