I've been playing guitar for 7 years, and have only now started taking playing with a metronome seriously, and, I can honestly say I hurt my playing for waiting this long to use one. It should not be this hard for me to get.
l know where you might be coming from, ive been playing for about 2 years and ive been keeping time just naturally singing the song in my head, but with this im just singing the beats and just playing along, your solution might be similar, just try and connect it to your natural sense of rythm. but dude youve been playing for 7 years thats a very long time, picking this is up should be second nature to you already. youve spent so much time as a student.
I hope you know that the knowledge you bright in this video is timeless. 10 years had passed since you posted this free lesson yet it helps a lot of new students, including me. thank you!!
As a drummer, I wish more guitarists would play to a metronome. I cant tell you how many guitarists I've played with who either rush every time they played, or who would flat out just skip beats here and there. Like they dont understand the concept that most songs are supposed to have a pulse. And counting to 4 isnt that hard.
I agree man, i was one of those guitarist who had trouble cause i never played with a metronome, so rather than just playing with a metrenome i also picked up drums to give my musical mindset a tempo, rythm, timing beat kinda sense to it
First of all Why are drummers watching guitar related? Second Not every guitarist is a failure like your guitarists Last Guitar is harder than drums Lay off
Started learning how to play guitar over 50 years ago off and on. Mostly off. Learned some chords and the first verse of several tunes. Always played alone until 5 years ago, I joined a veterans group that gives fee lessons. I have Learn a lot, mostly that nobody knows everything about playing so I'm satisfied to remain a student. As a result of not playing with other people, I struggle with tempo, keeping time rhythm and playing with other people. It's coming along though and the metronome is a great tool that helps a lot. Thank you for the tutorial.
Willard Wort when playing with the metronome you don't want to react to it you want to feel it. in other words when your playing with a metronome correctly you won't hear the beep/click/tweet/snare (different sounds a metronome can make) I've spoken to a lot of rock and jazz drummers and that's how I've been playing and recording since :) hope I helped bro
leigh richardson technically, the reason the metronome can't be heard is temporal masking. This type of post masking can be in effect for 200 ms, so it is not a guarantee of being absolutely precise. It also kind of means you're playing before the beat. Maybe a challenge for you would be to play so that the metronome pulse masks your guitar note (easier if the pulse is a longer sound sample). Can you do it?
FANTASTIC F#CKING LESSON!.. I BEEN PLAYING BLOODY SCALES FOR HOURS EACH DAY AND ITS NOT GETTING ANYWHERE... THIS HAS SAVED MY LIFE!.. FINALLY A BLOODY CORRECT EXPLANATION.. NO GAMES.. NO HOLDING BACK INFORMATION SO I HAVE TO GO TO A LINK A PAY SOME CRAP.. JUST A CLEAR CONSCICE EXERCISE ON HOW TO PLAY SCALES .. AND I THANK YOU!!
That's the perfect explanation of how to use a metronome. This always confused me and even timing confused me, but you've cleared up both of those in this video. Thanks bro!
hey man ive been playing for about five years now. not familiar with playing with a metranome but im liking it. this lessons was very insightful, i subscribed to your channel and im gonna recomend the video
Thanks Carl. I needed to pass this on to my son and your explanation is so clear. I always turn to your videos first. May I ask a request? Anyway you might do a tutorial for Neil Young’s Sugar Mountain?
The trick is to hit the string at that EXACT moment when metronome beeps. It is very hard (for beginners). Basically the sound of the string MUST overlap the sound of metronome's beep. Usually beginners hit the string quite a bit around a beep and they think that they do it right. That is not correct.
I am so thankful that we have you as our RUclipsr teacher. I cant thank you more cause it wouldn't be enough, you are amazing in all your lessons there's no way of not understanding you and definitely the best guitar teacher of youtube fuck the others i just recomend my friends and people to your channel, because you are a real professional. I really appreciate your work, your love and passion for music my friend. Hope you have a nice day and again thank you so much.
Been playing consistently for about 18 months and just now realizing how important using a metronome is. All this time and frustration learning licks and scales and building strength but I can't keep time for squat. Advice to anyone starting out, use the dang metronome. You'll hold yourself back in a major way if you don't. It sucks but power through.
Hi Thomas, if speed doubles play the former quarter notes like 8 notes, if it´s cut in half play the 8 notes like u did quaters before the change of speed. if it´s a variotion not that simple, try 2 different sounding metronomes and try to concentrate on the needed beat. while playing with a drummer just follow him, he´s ur metronome then and should change to the needed speed so nothing would really change except the speed. if u r playing alone and a song with three variations it´s hard
Yep, that I can understand. Metronome is definitely the tool for improving your speed, but speed has nothing to do with being a good or even a great guitarist. Wow, I can't believe my last comment was marked as spam. All I was saying not everyone requires a metronome to improve as a guitarist. Some people have a natural sense of rhythm and do not require a beeping sound in the background to play in time.
What carl is showing here is the very basics to the metronome. There is a whole lot more you can use the metronome for. All you ppl that say you don't need it. I challenge you to pick out a backtrack to a song you know how to play including solo. And step in as the guitarist, and see if you need it or not. Because i bet your timing will be off. Good luck. Playing Guitar is not about Who is better then who. Its about expression. Self enjoyment ect.
Can you show us how to play a song with a metronome? It would be nice to show us how you play with maybe 2 different type of songs. LIke one aukustic song and one rock song with a electric guitar. That would be great. Even if this was helpful I cant figure out how to play a song with more complex songstrucktures. Like for instance. How would you play a song with different tempos during the song? The beat changes than right? Can you show us something like that?
Thank you som much Carl. As I progress on the guitar I find it easier and easier to follow your tutorials. But this video really helped my understand the importnace of a metronome! And the work you put into your youtube channel really helps alot of people. Keep up with the good work!!
learning guitar again but in a perfect way and not wrong. And also, i want to avoid Guitar tabs and Chords right now because thats maybe sometimes wrong and if you learning by ear, then its your way of the song and by the way, i learning megadeth holy wars right now and want to use a metronome but didn't know how and because this video i know it. Thanks for this man, this realy helped me.
In this lesson your fingers are a little angled. But in your spider exercise video you told that the fingers should be parallel to the fret board. So, what's the right way straight or a little angled?
playing in time and playing with a metronome are almost two different skills. As far as guitar recording goes it is impossible to be a session guitarist without being completely competent with or without a click. Playing to a click is an essential part of playing any instrument. Not everyone requires a metronome to become better but once you get to a certain level if you can't play to a click you can't get work, it is pretty necessary unless you are never involved with recording
I've been playing for a number of years and I have ran into a myriad of guitarists that had timing issues and didn't know it. If you say you don't need to use a metronome for a little timing practice, then you should have NO trouble playing a few exercises or scales to a metronome from say 60 pm to 150bpm?
Am I wrong ? I play one note at a beat , like each time there's a beat I hit a note , like I will start from maybe 70bpm then move up to like 200bpm in a day. or am I doing it all wrong ?
Marilyn Hanson yes this is correct if you are doing a 4/4 type thing...4 notes to 4 beats..when you increase the beats..the tempo is faster but you still have to do 4 notes on 4 beats..1 note per beat..which equals 1 measure of notes...now lets say you want to play fast during this 4/4..you can..now you play 2 notes on 1 beat..so in essence you will have 8 notes playing now instead of 4..you can even use a rest/pause on a beat if you want..now say you want to play 4 notes on each beat..you can this is called 16 notes..so you play 4 notes per beat..try 40 beats per min then work your way up for the 16 notes...there are other time signatures..3/4 2/4..but its sorta same thing ..except beats change..3 beats instead of 4 and so on.. hope it helps
Ian Miller Makes alot of sense actually :D. I'm leaning how to sweep , so if I play 160bpm but at 1 note per beat , technically I'm sweeping at 40bpm ? Any clue how many bpm a standard badass sweep is if I play in 4/4 ?
cheers...if you are doing sweeping its usually 16th notes...4 notes on every beat for 4 beats..so 16....you can put your beats at any number you want...but you must still do 4 notes per beat...picking 1 note per beat is just 4 notes for 4 beats...so if your 160...put bpm at 80 and trying getting in 4 notes per beat...if too hard go down...best way to practice 16th is goto metronomebot.com goto quadtruple subdivision link...now when you set the beats on this...all the little clicks in between the beats are the notes you time with those..first beat 4 notes then beat 2..another 4..etc...this will help you sweep...another one is 3/4..try that one for sweeping to...but stick to 4/4 til ya grasp it all...
You need to be able to play quarter notes all the way to 64th notes at a slow time scale. Once you achieve that be able to do it faster. This is how you train your body to actually play whatever you want. It's not about feeling it's about training
So I'm trying to do this #giveit100 I'm gonna be playing with this metronome along side with some sort of arpeggio scale. So what it is that I am trying out is learning a arpeggio scale at a faster pace so I can improve myself. So I would use this metronome everyday increasing its speed. So like what? On a beat i would play a note?
I appreciate the lesson, but what song has a rhythm so neatly packaged like the example. Usually there’s a mix of notes in every measure. Quarter-half-eight-eight, then the next measure has a different set of note times that add up to 4, and so on. Not to mention the weird timing of strumming. I love the idea of getting faster, but I don’t get how this video will make the drummer enjoy playing with me more. I’m not trying to be rude, but I’m learning Crazy, by Willie Nelson. It has long pauses and triplets all mixed together, and I get lost trying to keep time while finding a different note.
I've looked through some of your vids. Good material, I like it. Anyhow, could I leave a request here ))) ? What about a tutorial on Joe Bonamssa - River in a near future. I was trying to figure out it on my own but slide makes it much difficult )

One of the most practical videos on beats, metronome and how to actually use them together. Great job!
Im able to do the scales and examples but I don't understand how to use metronome for a song
try counting with the drums on the actual sond to get timing?

its really difficult to align your mental rhythm with the metronome if you were playing on your own
True but training the mind to synchronize with a comfortable tempo could be the beginning of breaking into 1/8 and 1/16ths... trying this on Mandolin.
Good video! If someone does not have a metronome and needs it I have someone on the channel
