I have gone about 3 years now without playing with a metronome, and I still cant do it.

I get lost at higher speeds trying to count with the about of BPM whether its Triplets or anything.

I have watched Kris's How To Use a Metronome before but I just dont know why I still dont get it !

I need to learn how to use it so I can apply it to absoultley everything and get it in perfect time,
But I have reached a point where I am about to give up trying to play fast if I cant learn how to use it !

Hey mate,

I struggle with this as well, if you check out Ivans pentatonics and modes series he plays through different scales and such from half notes right up to sixteenth triplets, it helps because the metronome and note placement are on the lesson and you just play along so you're not trying to "see" the timing yourself, anyway check them out at the link.

whilst you may know the scales in these lessons the timing is just as important!
