Online metronome

An online metronome is a free digital download, easy to use, and it never gets lost.

If you've already got a computer and internet service, this metronome is completely free. It's especially helpful to have a laptop computer so that you can easily take it to where you're practicing. Those new mini-laptops are ideal for this purpose.

Some internet-based metronomes include digital tuning with them.

Here are some free metronome download sites. All are usable online; nothing needs to be downloaded.

This is super easy to use. There is a paid upgrade that turns your cell phone into a metronome. Pretty handy if you can't access your computer and don't want another digital device to carry around. It costs $5.99, which is pretty cheap, but there's a free trial so you can see if you like it.

There is an A=440 for tuning, too.

Simple to use and has colors to emphasize the dominant beat. A slider bar changes the tempo.
