MODERATO · BRISK AND UPBEAT

110 BPM metronome.

110 beats per minute has a brisk, upbeat feel: a beat every 0.55 seconds. It sits at the top of the moderato range, just below the 120 BPM that so much dance and pop music uses, so it suits songs that should feel lively without rushing.

What 110 BPM is used for

  • Upbeat acoustic strumming with a steady down-up motion
  • Pop and reggaeton grooves, which often sit between 95 and 115 BPM
  • Scale sequences where every note falls on an eighth-note subdivision
  • Timing practice with the click muted on beats 2 and 4

A practice idea at 110 BPM

Mute beats 2 and 4 in the accent row so you only hear clicks on 1 and 3. Keep the full groove going and listen for whether your beats 2 and 4 land where the silent clicks would have been.

Press Space to start and stop, T to tap a new tempo, and the arrow keys to nudge the speed by one BPM. The routine in how to use a metronome builds on these steps.
