    This document provides instructions for using a metronome to improve timing by changing the tempo of an original click track. It includes 8 examples where the original click is presented along with a new click at a different tempo. The exercises are meant to challenge the reader to count and play along with the new click track rather than the original. Additional notes suggest trying the exercises while playing along to the song "Rosanna" by Toto.

    How To Use A Metronome To Improve Your Timing

    Transcribed by Gary Evans

    With the exercises that follow, you will hear the Click as the Top Line (Old Click).
    Change to the Bottom Line (New Click). In most cases, this will change the
    Tempo of the original Click. This means you'll have to count them in differently.
