Metronome Files

Posted by: Jeff on Tuesday, March 17th, 2009

One of the most frustrating aspects of practicing drums to a metronome click is being able to hear the click clearly.

Below are a few MP3′s you can download and use in your mp3 player. More files will show up in the upcoming months, but these three form a solid foundation that get you through the bulk of your practice sessions.  Try using closed back headphones when playing drumset, as they will give you enough isolation that won’t need to raise the volume to harmful levels.

The 80BPM is perfect starting tempo for working your snare drum excercises and rudiments. It also is a great starting point for drumset excercises and fills.

The 92BPM and 100BPM files are great for pushing your tempo forward in a controlled manner. Try using the 92BPM mid week, and the 100BPM at the end of the week.
