The stability of linear metronome‐synchronization strategies is tested by studying the analytic properties of synchronization error sequences. Strategies based on the time of the metronome events are generally stable, even without error‐correcting feedback. Strategies based exclusively on the timing of the subject's own tap are generally unstable even when they employ corrective feedback processes.
