Customer Reviews:

5 out of 5 stars Love my metronome   September 1, 2008
F. Pinkul (Nebo, NC)
Easy to use. Loud enough (adjustable volume). Covers all the rhythms I need.
I can tap in the beat of a song and it will tell me what the tempo is. Has some tones for tuning your instrument which I don't use since I already have an electronic tuner. I like this way better than my old windup. Has two tones and various patterns so the first beat of a measure is a different tone - I find that helpful.



5 out of 5 stars Great for drum majors!   August 31, 2008
marglane (Houston, TX)
I bought this metronome for my daughter who is a drum major for her high school band. She loves it because the display is very clear and large enough for her to see when she puts it on the floor of her podium.


4 out of 5 stars Tons of Features for a Killer Price   August 26, 2008
Fly By Light (Atlanta, Georgia)
I love this metronome. It has a broad range of tempos and time signatures. The volume knob and mini output give you unlimited output options, including feeding your keyboard "Audio In", ear phone, amp, monitor system, recording system, or other configuration. The "tap tempo" features allows you to determine the tempo of recordings with ease.

Complaints are minor. The rubber buttons require considerable pressure, which compresses both button and finger. There is no precise "moment of contact" when pressing these buttons. Without a tactile click, the Tap Tempo function feels "mushy". The Tap Tempo function is still "good enough", but stops me short of giving this product five stars. Also, I wish that the chassis had a little more durable feel. Neither of these is a deal-killer.

Quibbles aside, I enthusiastically recommend this product. I use it for practice at home, as well as in choir rehearsals. It fits nicely in the pencil pouch of my music notebook. If mine were ever lost or broken, I would replace it immediately. At this price, it might make sense to have one for home and one for gigs/rehearsals.



3 out of 5 stars Wanted a click metronome   August 12, 2008
Agent 92
I bought this based on at least two other reviews that described the sound it makes as a "click". It is not a click it is a high pitched electronic "beep". That beep gets lost with notes played by guitar, etc. It also could be louder so I took two stars off for these two drawbacks. Otherwise it keeps time like it is supposed to. Look elsewhere if you wanted a click sound metronome.


5 out of 5 stars this metronome is great!   August 11, 2008
Cirie Thomas (Paso Robles, California)
I got this metronome to help keep the tempo of a song my quartet was singing. It helped us tremendously. I like the fact it has a pitch pipe on it also!
