Transcripts usually say what the BPM is, other than that i dont know a direct answer..


although my tip is, learn how to figure out the BPM. Makes life easier if you can find the BPM yourself :)

Hey,

Here you go- it's an online metronome.

I've used it many a time to find BPM while listening to songs on my MP3 or playing on my stereo in the background.

Hope that works for you.

Cheers,
C. P.

If you have a metronome with a Tap function, simply go to Itunes Store and play the samples of the tracks you're doing and tap in the tempos. Better yet, buy the tracks. There are downloadable metronomes for many mobile phones now, too.

by the way, an led metronome is really hard to play along to. i've tried it and it's not so easy. it's much easier to use an audible click and some headphones.
