i have a question about metronomes.
i've been using one for quite a while now, but was never instructed on how to, and have devised my own methods of drilling scales etc. with one. three notes per click , four , eight, odd groupings etc.
my question is this. does each click represent a measure? if you are playing sixteenth notes, are you playing sixteen notes in between each click?
i've heard mention of sixteenth notes at one twenty bpm, and if this is the case, then maybe i need to stick with slow and soulful blues (lol)
seriously, though, rather than just practicing note groupings, i'd like to be more aware of what type of notes i'm playing, and know exactly what terms to use for what i'm playing.
