You can specify the interval click by entering the number of beats per minute and activating and deactivating it.<\/p>\n\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div id=\"faq-question-1651650986113\" class=\"rank-math-list-item\">\n<h3 class=\"rank-math-question \"><strong>What Does Tempo Mean?<\/strong><\/h3>\n<div class=\"rank-math-answer \">\n\n<p>Tempo is a fundamental musical element in creating a piece of music. You can use it to convey mood and all kinds of feelings, depending on what you are trying to develop in your composition.<\/p>\n<p>Tempo is measured in Beats Per Minute. (BPM)<\/p>\n\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div id=\"faq-question-1651651005259\" class=\"rank-math-list-item\">\n<h3 class=\"rank-math-question \"><strong>What Does BPM Stand For?<\/strong><\/h3>\n<div class=\"rank-math-answer \">\n\n<p>BPM stands for Beats Per Minute. This is the musical means to express the tempo of a piece. It indicates to musicians the speed at which to play the music. In Ableton, setting the BPM sets the master tempo of your track.<\/p>\n<p>The higher the number of BPM, the faster the music. The slower the number of BPM, the slower the music.<\/p>\n\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div id=\"faq-question-1651651023884\" class=\"rank-math-list-item\">\n<h3 class=\"rank-math-question \"><strong>Can I Automate the Metronome?<\/strong><\/h3>\n<div class=\"rank-math-answer \">\n\n<p>Ableton&rsquo;s metronome is a great candidate for automation.
