A metronome (from Ancient Greek μέτρον (métron) 'measure' and νόμος (nómos) 'law') is a device that produces an audible click or other sound at a uniform interval that can be set by the user, typically in beats per minute (BPM). Metronomes may also include synchronized visual motion, such as a swinging pendulum or a blinking light.
Metric levels: beat level shown in middle with division levels above and multiple levels below. In music and music theory, the beat is the basic unit of time, the pulse (regularly repeating event), of the mensural level [1] (or beat level). [2]
For example, a tempo of 60 beats per minute signifies one beat per second, while a tempo of 120 beats per minute is twice as rapid, signifying two beats every second. The note value of a beat will typically be that indicated by the denominator of the time signature. For instance, in 4 4 time, the beat will be a crotchet, or quarter note.
Tapping is an extended technique, executed by using either hand to 'tap' the strings against the fingerboard, thus producing legato notes. Tapping generally incorporates pull-offs or hammer-ons.
Simplest form of metric modulation, unmarked (= ), in a piece by J.S. Bach. Slow introduction followed by an allegro traditionally taken at double the speed.Sixteenth notes in the old tempo prepare for eighth notes in the new tempo. [1]
Delay is an audio signal processing technique that records an input signal to a storage medium and then plays it back after a period of time. When the delayed playback is mixed with the live audio, it creates an echo-like effect, whereby the original audio is heard followed by the delayed audio.
