Since I bought this item just because the meternome is included, I can't tell you how the instrument Nevertheless, if you are looking for a way to torture your kids while they practice the piano, you should check this out. When they are playing, it is loud enough to be heard. It is possible to adjust the volume. Additionally, there is a headphone jack, so you can make it so only one person can listen, but at this house that defeats the whole You'll hear otherwise from my children if I cross my fingers that it lasts a long time.

The tuner/metronome has three caveats that I should note. is in dire need of a low-battery That's not a deal breaker for me, but it's a pain in the a$$. Because AAA alkaline batteries have a larger diameter, they cannot be used in this design. Taking care of heavy-duty carbon and zinc cells seems to be straightforward. It's not as simple as you think As for the AAA standard, as this unit does not ever need high current alkalines, so the carbon/zinc type will be fine. 3) The tabs on the battery compartment cover are tiny and very fragile. When closing the battery compartment, be very careful to not bend or break one. While I own an expensive Korg TMR unit I like very much, I find I use this one more as I like it a lot better. A backup will probably be ordered as well. A better price cannot be found anywhere else.

While the unit is a little piece of kit, the response to changes is not as quick as one would hope. If you sound a note, then adjust the pitch, the computer will lock up and freeze. On occasion, it will follow the notes and track the changes on other occasions, it will lock up and freeze and might either not register any changes or show a false change. After you have gone silent for a short while so that it can settle down and resound your note, Therefore, it is fussy in that sense. Unlike the cheapy tuner, my Korg tuner/Metronome meter does not get confused and lock up when it gets to a certain level of volume. However, it does serve the purpose of getting you in tune if that is your only goal.

In the past, I haven't had an issue with Amazon or written a review. However, I buy from them a lot. Due to this, I feel compelled to write about this outstanding metronome (I don't use it for tuning). It's a metronome that I needed while out of town to hear over my practice amp and this one fit the bill. I've been playing guitar for a long time, so this was the perfect solution. There are plenty of loud and accurate sounds. In my guitar cases it has become a mainstay, and especially at its price it can't be beat (pun I highly recommend.

Tuning electric instruments is made easy with the plug-in, while acoustic tuning is made easy with the mic. The instrument is small so it can fit into a case for a mandolin, ukelele or guitar.

The metronome function is all I had in mind when I bought this, because it has a visual pendulum that is helpful for As a keyboard player, I bought this to donate to our keyboard player, so he won't have to rely on me every time to tell him what the tempo is. Metronomes are a big part of my life, so when he set his to 70 bpm, I set mine to the same pace as he did. After about 10 seconds, I could tell his metronome (the model used) was moving ahead of mine, so I asked him if he was at 70, rather than That was the case. When I took this metronome home I compared it to 3 other metronomes and they all stayed in perfect sync. One who always gets ahead is this one It still moves at a fraction of a beat per second no matter what the tempo. I think that's a huge issue. Changing this one's bpm to 69 isn't going to fix the problem (and no, changing it to 70 isn't going to help). There is an internal clock mechanism that is inherently fast. It would be like a cheap watch that isn't accurate While accurate, it is fast to set the time, and you do not have to keep setting the time every hour or two like you would with a stopwatch.

I think this tuner/metronome is great. This was a present for my 7-year-old son During guitar lessons, I can use this for my son, who is 11 years old. The tuner is very good. I use it to tune his junior electric guitar and it is very close to the original pitch. I always set the pitch slightly higher so it won't be as sensitive when you tune it. This makes it easy to be consistent when you tune it. It doesn't have a metronome feature, but it should work fine on acoustic guitar.

I think it will work fine on an acoustic guitar. This metronome's tone isn't as annoying as some others and it can be customized to fit individual preferences. In its melody, there are two tones—one to indicate the beat, one to mark the end of a There is the option to set the 2nd tone to every beat from every 0 beats all the way up to every 9 beats (as well as the intervals between beats, which is especially helpful with compound time and counting "ands" and "a"s). The value is excellent for the price of the books. I recommend it highly.
