About 70 BPM

At 70 BPM there’s a click every 0.86 seconds (857 milliseconds). With 8th notes on, that’s 140 clicks a minute; with 16ths, 280.

On the metronome’s scale, 70 falls in the Adagio range (66 to 75): slow and at ease.

A good speed for learning something new: slow enough to play every note cleanly, with time to hear whether each one lands on the click.
