# Click Track Generator

> A click track is a steady metronome pulse that musicians play or record to so the tempo stays exact. The generator above runs free in your browser: set 40–240 BPM, choose 2/4, 3/4, 4/4 or 6/4, accent beat 1, add 8th-note clicks, or tap the tempo in — then press Start, or download a 16-bit WAV (30 seconds to 3 minutes) for your DAW, in-ear mix or live show. It uses precise Web Audio scheduling rather than timers, so the clicks stay tight. Want something to practise over? Kenerate's Music Studio can make a backing track at the same BPM.

## In depth

### Why musicians use click tracks
The main reasons:
- Recording — parts recorded separately line up.
- Editing — a steady tempo makes cutting and looping easy.
- Live shows — bands sync to backing tracks and lights.
- Practice — building speed and steadiness.

### How this one keeps time
Browser timers drift, so the generator schedules each click ahead of time on the audio clock (a 'lookahead' scheduler), which keeps it steady even if the page is busy. Downloads are rendered offline, sample-accurate.
