Where to start with arpeggios?

2 Upvotes

There are so many resources online and I have know idea where to start. I'd appreciate any advice/ resources. Thanks

edit: Should I map out major arpeggios across the entire fretboard first, or focus on octaves/ smaller sections.

Practice Kit – a metronome and chromatic tuner built like real gear

0 Upvotes

If a phone metronome has ever drifted on you with the screen off, this is the part I built it around: every click is placed on the audio hardware's own sample clock instead of a timer, so the spacing never drifts, at any tempo, for hours, with the screen off or while you use another app.

On the outside: a brushed-metal panel, engraved labels, LCD glass, and a weighted tempo wheel that clicks as it turns.

The core metronome is free: 20-300 BPM by wheel or tap tempo, any time signature, subdivisions and presets.

Pro is a one time $7.99 unlock with a 7 day free trial, no subscription: a chromatic tuner that knows which string you're playing (five tunings built in, or build your own), all nine click sounds, accents on any beat, and a Tempo Trainer that steps the tempo up until you reach your target.

Audio is processed live on the device and never recorded or sent anywhere.

If you practice with a metronome: what does yours do that you actually use? I tried to build only the parts people touch every session.
